Product Description

CD Description
The eight-piece Roots Radics are an influential instrumental group who helped pioneer the '80s dancehall style of reggae and provided accompaniment for some of the genre's greatest practitioners, including Bunny Wailer and Gregory Isaacs. This collection takes tracks by Roots Radics and filters them through the combined mixing skills of both Jah Screw and King Tubby, masters of the style and legends to fans of reggae and dub.
Hailed as an "original dub classic", this collection has achieved legendary status. It brims with all the hallmarks of dub: the rock-solid bass and drums over which float echoed, repeated shards of guitar, keyboards, and horns. This set includes no vocals whatsoever. The art of dub music comes in the artful juxtaposition of various sonic elements on top of the rhythm. The opening track, "Country Gal Dub", typifies the set. Built on a rock-solid rhythm track of just drum and bass, it is sprinkled with just a scratchy percussive effect, a touch of keyboard, and a sinewy guitar line, all doused in a liberal helping of echo. The bonus track "King Stereo Gav Dub" is particularly bracing, with an insistent beat and a sublimely spacey set of ambient noises, whip-cracks, and scampering drumbeats.
