Round 6: DUB
From Howard J:
 |
For the Dub
Round,
my selection is
'Justice Tonight/Kick It Over
by
The Clash
from the Super Black Market Clash LP |
THE
BATTLE, IS GETTING HOTTER...
Music is a universal language.
Inspired music, imbued with that unnamable charge of life force, is not
something that gets turned on and off by the studio engineer. When it all comes together, an
indescribable quality of goodness marks a song, or an artist, or a band
for that matter.
Justice Tonight by The Clash is
such a song.
When I started my search for a Dub selection,
I was determined to find something inspirational. Dub can be as
simple as a version of a track, but as we all know, in the right hands,
it's an art form. Aswad's New Chatper of Dub taught me
that. I wanted a track that was dynamic,
pure inspired entertainment.

I chose the track
'Justice Tonight' because for me, it is without question, a perpetual
font of freshness. I never grow tired of it. Perhaps it's
those incredible little bells, or the echoes of Joe Strummer; "A lot of
people, use a calculator"
The march like precision, the feeling of falling backward, and
floating forward at the same time.
Or, maybe, it's the double dub effect. The
way this version is put together, just
when you think this dub track is over, it break into yet another
deeper dub (kick it over).
Nuff Respect to Joe
Strummer, and The Clash. This special version found on SUPER
Black Market Clash is a phenomenal Dubplate version of Willi Williams'
powerful "Armagideon Time"
Load up to full watts
tonight with this track fellows.
Justice Tonight.
