January 2011 - Starting off with no less
than 6 new releases by VP records, it's
clear that Roots Reggae is not about to
perish in spite of statements you hear
sometimes here and there by people who think
that good music is a thing from the past.
Chapter 4 of Radio Dubroom 2011 contains
once again a healthy portion of Roots Reggae
with a whole lot of DUB for your listening
enjoyment!
The set
starts off with a Dub from Cocody Rock by
the African singer Alpha Blondy, followed by
the vocal version. A great re-issue from VP
Records! Bushman is up next with his brand
new album livicated to Peter Tosh, followed
by another classic, both in the original
Discomix and a new version by Damien Marley
and Nas: Dennis Brown with Aswad on the
massive Promised Land riddim can't be
refused!
Next up,
two tunes by Richie Spice, one from a brand
new release by VP Records and another
available free and legal in MP3 download
(look to the playlist for links).
Vibronics
and Alpha & Omega form the bulk of the
EuroDUB and Roots section which follows:
vocalists like Boney L, Mark Iration and
Jonah Dan are definitely no strangers for
the listener of the better quality Roots and
Dub available out there. Not so many of them
might know of Gold Heart Music based in
Sweden but Sheya Mission's "Feel Like
Rain" along with it's Dub version
should change that.
There's two
tunes taken from the MP3.com Legacy, too:
Amsterdam based DUB Creator with one of his
early productions and the Dub Farm, complete
with samples from the movie Rockers which
simply states: "All of the Youths Shall
Witness the Day That Babylon Fall!"
Another 85+
minutes of pure Roots and Culture!
