Dub equipment and dub philosophy pt.2


Music and computers seem to be inseparable nowadays. In the last 15 years computers have taken over completely in the studio, and even on stage. A bit strange, because computers were not really designed for making music (see also Dub equipment and dub philosophy pt.1).

Serious analog delay ~ Diamond Memory Lane 2


I don't own one myself but looking at the specs and the manual it's pretty obvious that this is an absolute killer analog delay. The design is based on original Panasonic MN3005 chips (4096 stage bucket brigade style echo) which are becoming extremely rare nowadays so you have to act fast.

Foundation Compilation Reggae Series Volume 1

This is the best roots dancehall cd i've heard in 2010, featuring big veteran artists on big riddims. Don't just download the illegal mp3s like everybody else does, buy this thing, the singers & musicians & producers who created this one deserve our full respect!! No filler pure killer, available in all shops.

Visual dubb: Sougwen ~ dubstep drawings




A whole heap of classic oldskool visual dub clips over here! I found these (the remains of some workshop) via Sougwen who likes to mix up drawing and Hotflush-style dubstep. The wonderful artwork for the Love Pressure EP by Sepalcure is also her work.
