WWW,
August 27 2014 - About a week after the
release of the Net
Album, here came the CD edition of
Messian Dread Presents A Heavyweight Dubwise
Selection Without Objection. No less than 16
tracks, a special license for all DJ's and
full high quality cover art: it most
certainly transcends it's online version. On
top of that, obtaining this physical product
will show that you are not just serious in
your support for (DUB) Reggae Music, but
about your own record collection as well.
After all, this is a selection of very
special tracks featuring legendary names
like U Roy, Prince Jazzbo and Dillinger.
Of course, when you're just interested in
the music and satisfied with burning your
own CD you can simply jump to the Net Album
download page and get the CD Quality wave
files from there. No problem. This is not a
release to make money, this is not even a
promotional tool for Messian Dread and/or
Dubroom Productions, while most of the
vocalists featured on the album absolutely
need no promotion either. This is simply an
opportunity to get your hands on a physical
presentation of the 2014 developments in the
Dubroom studio and the reasons to want that
can vary.
The reasons for the creation and eventual
release of this album didn't vary. It's a
selection without objection, after all. A
selection documenting the enormous
improvement in sound and other quality when
compared to pre 2014 Dubroom productions.
One reason. A selection that deserves to be
presented with the special designed cover
art because it tells a story. Another
reason. A very special way of saying thank
you to all those who have been supportive in
one way or another. More reason. A physical
quality product that more than justifies the
price because it is a valuable
addition to any Reggae record collection.
Nuff reason.
This is a high quality product like any
audio CD. The full color cover art
(including on the disc itself) is printed in
superior quality and the tracks are exact
duplicates of the CD Quality Master Tapes
(16 Bit, 44.100 Khz). The album itself was
created in a special process at AMAZON.com
called Create Space. The musical works, the
cover art, getting a UPC
number: it took several days of working,
tweaking, and reviewing both at the side of
the Dubroom and at Amazon's. The process was
concluded when the physical review copy was
sent to the Dubroom via very snail mail and
subsequently approved before it went live at
Amazon. In fact, Amazon is the only place
where you can actually get the album.
The price is set at $12.50, which is
quite reasonable for 70 minutes of pure
heavyweight Dubwise and since Amazon has all
these special shipping offers, it's even
possible to have it shipped to your doorstep
for close to no costs. The CD and cover art
are printed on demand exactly like the copy
that was physically reviewed and approved at
the Dubroom, so you'll have the sign of
approval from the Dubroom. Since Amazon is
responsible for creating and shipping the
exact high quality duplicate of the approved
copy, you will have all the Amazon
guarantees when it comes to the quality of
the physical product itself. In short: The
Dubroom approves the album, Amazon certifies
you'll get what we approved.
A labor of love for (DUB) Reggae and the
many vocalists present on the album.
Purchasing it is an equal "labor"
of love for the very same.
Nuff said.
