A good friend of
mine bough a bunch of used CDs at a garage sale (something like 20 CDs for
5.00$). After sorting out the pile he gave me the ones he didn`t want to keep.
The first thing I see is this `roots of dub funk 3 `compilation.
Once in a while I like chilling out with some dub. There`s 12 tracks in there
(45.13 minutes). You will hear pieces from the likes of Brain Damage,
Alpha And Omega, Dub 2 Dub, Jah Warrior, Version
City Rockers , Dub Funk Association , Teacha,
Burning Babylon , DJ Perch, Ras Shaggai and
Vibronics. If you`re into reggae, dub, roots reggae (with a dash of
electronics on the side) you will like this. Otherwise, this compilation is a
great introduction to the genre. Standout tracks are:
2 – Alpha And
Omega – Jerusalem (4.10 minutes) = a meditative / psychedelic / relaxing /
hypnotic piece of British roots dub. Excellent.
5 – Version
City Rockers – deeper roots (3.14 minutes) = a beautiful fusion of
dub / reggae and electronic music. What else is there to say? I got this as a
freebie and you can`t have it. Sorry about your damn luck.
