Crucial Alphonso - Visionary Creation
DUBROOM
MP3 ALBUM REVIEW |
| WWW,
September 2014 - True Original Sound System
Style: six titles all with two versions.
Pumping steppers riddims, some played by the
mighty King Earthquake (UK) and all created
in Crucial Alphonso's Belgian Studio. When
you like your digital, when you like your
steppers, when you need your bass, just
download this free release by that Maltese DUB
KEY Net Label.
Crucial
Alphonso grew up with Reggae. His father a
Reggae DJ, his own voicing at Sound Systems
and ability to create his own electronic
devices, it was only a matter of time before
he would start releasing his own production.
As said, as done. Twelve outstanding pieces
of digital niceness that yuou can play soft
but preferable loud with a lot of
bass.

OnDubGround and Jahko Lion - Chapter One EP
DUBROOM
MP3 ALBUM REVIEW |
| WWW,
September 2014 - French (DUB) Reggae band
OnDubGround with five tracks featuring
Jamaican singer Jahko Lion. Both showing
their versatility as Jahko rides laid-back,
Ire riddims and heavy steppers with the same
ease as they are played into the multitrack
recorder.
In the
abundance of water, the fool is thirsty.
Someone said it sometime and it could very
well be said about anyone looking for
conscious (DUB) Reggae and not knowing about
the enormous wealth of music from the online
Net Labels. Thanks to the Internet, the
world wide Roots Massive connects and
produces collaborations that were only
available for the industrial and commercial
boys and girls.

VARIOUS
ARTISTS - STRICTLY ANALOg DUB
DUBROOM
MP3 ALBUM REVIEW |
| WWW,
September 2014 - It comes with the puristic
title "Strictly Analog Dub", but
Dutch Net Label Dubbhism does not deliver
that with this otherwise very interesting
and enjoyable free Net Album. No, this is
not the first negative music review in the
Dubroom. Confused? Read On.
You got
purists -some would say fetishists- of all
kinds. Reggae purists, Dub purists, Analogue
purists, Digital purist, Vinyl purists, ah,
well you get the idea. The kind of purism
that's brought forward in this really nice
album is the analogue purity. That is to
say, analogue recording and effects purity.
Not all tracks are Dub, not all tracks are
Reggae, not all tracks are played with
analogue equipment. Unless you would call a drum computer
and other obviously sequenced stuff
analogue. Like these
folks.

ROOTS
RAID - FROM THE TOP
DUBROOM
MP3 ALBUM REVIEW |
| WWW,
September 2014 - Get ready for something
really, really crucial: Roots Raid's
"From The Top" is an album that
you just have to hear. And since it's
offered as a free download from the Original
DUB Gathering Net Label, there is simply
no excuse. Read on why.
Roots Raid
is a cooperation project of the bassist of
the French DUB Reggae Band Ondubground and
Bongo Ben. They're based in the heart of the
French country and are part of the Eurodub
and Roots Movement. "From The Top"
is an album where the two producers showcase
their art and skills, along with vocalists
like Ranking Joe and Billy Berry.

Dubsynaticx - Studio Dubs Part 1
DUBROOM
MP3 ALBUM REVIEW |
| WWW,
September 2014 - Whenever you see "Part
One" in the title of an album, it's
always intriguing: when it turns out to
contain niceness, you know there's more of
that niceness coming your way. Right?
Presenting Part One of Studio Dubs,
presenting Dubsynaticx, presenting some Dub
Niceness. Yes I!
Dubsynaticx
is Daniel Rossman, from Vienna Austria. He
grew up with Reggae music and in 2015, he
can look back at ten years of releasing his
music online. Yes, the Dubroom should
apologize to this Dub producer for not
having discovered him before. Is his music
that crucial, you might ask, and the answer
is YES. It's definitely an addition to the
variety in Eurodub and Roots land. We can
get it thanks to the Idren at the
Cyprus-based Dubophonic Net Label,
responsible for this excellent April 2014
release.
