SEE YOU ON MARCH SECOND!



Dubroom Online - Edition February 24 - March 1, 2008



"SEE YOU ON MARCH SECOND!" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 24 2008 - In the last seven weeks, I have been writing about Mystery Babylon in my column.

I have been sharing information which I found out and thing, basically the result of researching and putting things together.

Since I wrote it in a column, I didn't really bother top provide footnotes, but the Dubroom Website contains loads and loads of information and links that will provide you with these footnotes.

I plan to write much more about this essential topic too, but in the next week I need to do a couple of things which require me to go into the Outernet and so I will not have the time to put out new editions of Dubroom Online, even though I will visit the Dubroom Message Boards daily.

So... more on March 2nd!

Give Thanks, One Love,

DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW




WWW, February 2008 - The fourth episode of the REGGAENEWS.CO.UK Podcast contains a serious selection of Vocals and DUB Versions. In one hour, we hear a wide variety of lesser known artists and known artists with lesser known titles.

It's always a thrill to hear a Reggae tune for the first time. This thrill will be felt many times throughout this Podcast, as the Reggaenews UK crew introduces Reggae Niceness from every decade in the music's history up until the present.

Although the emphasis of the Podcast can be found in Ragga and Dancehall, there are more than enough other styles present to force even the purest Roots purist to take a listen.

And although the volume of the tracks vary in a rather noticeable way, there are no reasons whatsoever not to play the 60 minutes of niceness on maximum volume anyway...


PLAYLIST

01. Vernon Allen - Babylon (R&B 7")
02. Call More - My forefather died in the sand + Version (Sunshot 7")
03. Joseph Hill and Culture - Police Man + Version (Mr Tipsy 7")

MYSTERY BABYLON (49)



Dubroom Online - Edition February 23, 2008



"MYSTERY BABYLON (49)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 23 2008 - When we take a look at the American One Dollar bill, we read how the year 1776 is connected with the Novus Ordos Seclorum, or in normal English: the New World Order.

It's the year in which the United States of America was officially launched, and it was also the year wherein a secret society was formed called "The Illuminati", or in normal English: the Enlightened Ones.

One of the "Founding Fathers" of the entity called "United States of America " was a guy called Francis Bacon. He wrote a book about it called "The New Atlantis", in which he shared his "enlighted" view on the entity he helped create on land that was not his.

Enlightened is also the eye that is depicted just above the missing Head Corner Stone of the Great Pyramid in Egypt which you can also find on that same One Dollar bill.

Initiates and adepts of Mystery Babylon will see their god depicted in that eye. We know him as the "Light Bearer" or... Lucifer!

WWW, February 2008 - From the impressive opening track by JAH Shaka to the final selection carrying an up-tempo Black Uhuru tune, and everything in between, Rockers Paradise IS a Rockers Paradise fe true.

In fact, it's not easy to compile almost 50 minutes of the various styles of Reggae that can be heard in ROCKERS PARADISE. But it's not a problem for the Italian based B-DUB crew. And the fact that tunes are mixed into each other, sometimes even through eachother, shows that the Italian Brethren feel right at home in the music that we all love so much.

Roots and Culture from the top to the very last drop!

Dubroom Online - Edition February 22, 2008



"MYSTERY BABYLON (48)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 22 2008 - Eleven years before the terrible events at September 11 2001, George Bush Sr gave a speech in which he said: "It's more than one small country. It is a big idea, a NEW WORLD ORDER".

These very same words can be found on the American One-Dollar bill. It says in the ancient Roman language of Latin: "Novus Ordos Seclorum" and provides a year.

That year is 1776, supposedly the year in which an entity called The United States Of America was founded.

Additionally, there is a picture of an ancient structure on that very same One-Dollar bill, and it is the Great Pyramid in Egypt.

According to the ancient books written by adepts of Babylon System, this structure was build before the Great Flood of Noah by a character we have come to know under the name "Thoth".

WWW, February 2008 - UK DUB and ROOTS Reggae Music is known to incorporate digital techniques and musical programming. But none of that can be found in this excellent showcase of UK Reggae bands and vocalists brought to you by the REGGAENEWS.CO.UK crew.

The 1970's gave birth to a lot of crucial Reggae Music, that hasn't lost one inch of it's initial strength and power in the decades that were to come.

And not all of it was produced in Jamaica, as the 6th episode of the Reggaenews UK Podcast series clearly shows.

In just under an hour worth of music, we are being treated with ten great tracks from UK based Reggae bands and vocalists, some of which continue to work until this very day.

"MYSTERY BABYLON (47)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 21 2008 - Is it a co-incidence that one of the most dirty wars is currently being fought at exactly the same place where Nimrod attempted to build his tower-of-Bab-el?

Is it a co-incidence, that the themes around both events are exactly the same as well, namely to create a "New World Order"?

Is it a co-incidence that there is a long bloodline connecting Nimrod with the contemporary leaders of Babylon System responsible for what really is one of the dirtiest wars in modern history?

Is it a co-incidence that all of this is obviously and evidently leading to the events described in the last book of the Bible, the Apocalypse?

CONSCIOUS AND FOUNDATION MIX
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW




WWW, February 2008 - The Paris based Steppin' Youth Sound System come again with a thematic podcast that will entertain and enlighten the listener, or rather: experiencer.

This time, the theme is an answer to the question just what is meant with "Consciousness" in Reggae Music.



Reggae Music is a very special form of music. Much of that has to do directly with the fact that a major part of this music carries spiritual lyrics. Every vocalist seems to feel the obligation to at least release one spiritual track.

It's called Consciousness...

Steppin' Youth selected 13 heavyweight Conscious tracks and mixed them down to one half hour of a musical wake-up call. Non-stop, no-nonsense, just Consciousness seen?

Seen!

"MYSTERY BABYLON (46)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 20 2008 - People who have at least a little bit of sense when it comes to righteousness and truth, oppose the current war against (the people of) Iraq.

It seems like in the first place, this war is waged because of oil. After all, the original military name of the war was Operation Iraqi Liberation (O.I.L.).

But there is much more to this war, which has to do directly with Mystery Babylon and the return of the Days of Noah or "Atlantis" as the popular name goes.

Close to the capital of Iraq, Baghdad, we can find the location of the Tower of Babel. This very same location is also described in the Apocalypse.

It is the location of the bottomless pit, the abyss, where JAH has imprisoned the spirits who were responsible for creating the situation in the Days of Noah that caused JAH to send the Great Flood.

MYSTERY BABYLON (45)



Dubroom Online - Edition February 19, 2008


"MYSTERY BABYLON (45)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 19 2008 - For ages, the secret doctrines of Mystery Babylon had only been known to it's adepts: the elite of kings and priests who were in contact with the gods and in many cases claim(ed) to be children of these gods.

This started with Nimrod, who -in spite of being offspring of Kush and not of Japheth- is depicted all over the world as a white man whose symbol is the flying serpent.

Japheth is usually seen as the father of white people, so it is kind of strange that Nimrod would be a white man.

When we combine this with the fact that this very same Nimrod lost his humanity and became one of the Gibborim or Nephilim, we can see how in reality this has nothing to do with white people.

"MYSTERY BABYLON (44)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 18 2008 - Since the terrible events of September 11, 2001, more and more people got familiar with the fact that much of the official conspiracy theory is pure nonsense.

More and more people are familiar with the fact, that the World System we came to identify as Babylon is in fact a system ruled by secret societies such as the Freemasons and the infamous Skull and Bones cult of which George W. Bush is a member.

These secret societies are, according to their own -secret- teaching, in fact the perpetuation of the ancient mystery schools in which the adepts of Mystery Babylon got their education from Satan.

Yes, that's right: the current rulers of the earth proudly boast about their Babylonian Connection with Nimrod.

MYSTERY BABYLON (43)



Dubroom Online - Edition February 17, 2008



"MYSTERY BABYLON (43)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 17 2008 - When JAH revealed the blueprint of what we have come to know as "world history" to the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar, He described how in the end "they" would "mingle with the seed of men".

Ages before that, just after Adam and Eve committed the original sin, JAH gave another prophecy that has very much to do with this very same matter: there would be a war between the "seed of men" and the "seed of the serpent".

We have come to see, for example in the Ethiopian books of Enoch and the Kebra Negast, how the "seed of the serpent" refers to beings that were the direct offspring of Reptilian entities who "married" human women.

The very existence of these Nephilim or Gibborim became a threat for the very existence of mankind and thus cause the Most High to send the Great Flood.

After the Great Flood, we find Nimrod who became one of the Gibborim. Nimrod was the first of the Serpent Seed who claimed the "Divine Right To Rule" and thus created a "Royal Bloodline" that rules Babylon Shitstem until this very day.

And of Nimrod it is said, that he "became one of the Gibborim", in other words, he became like those beings that are known elsewhere as "the Seed of the Serpent".

WWW, February 15 2008 - A very strange remark by the Most High JAH, to describe the final step of Babylon Shitstem with the words "They Will Mingle Themselves With The Seed Of Men"...

Who are "they" anyway?

Most Bible scholars will not look any further than describing "ten kings", represented by the ten toes of the statue portrayed in the Book of Daniel.

However, since we know that the aim of Mystery Babylon is to bring back the Days of Noah, we have more than a little clue as to the identity of those that will mingle themselves with the seed of men.

For there are those among the "kings and rulers" that simply aren't "of the seed of men"!

DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW




WWW, February 2008 - Steppin' Youth brings us an interesting 45 minutes of strictly Bunny Lee productions with a well appriciloved emphasis on his 1970's works with Johnnie Clarke, King Tubby and the Aggrovators (Sly and Robbie).

Bunny Lee started working in the Jamaican Recording Industry from before there was a mention of the music called Reggae. After initially starting with Duke Reid's Sound System, he quickly went on to produce (read: finance) releases himself.

It was under the financial supervision of Edward O' Sullivan "Bunny" Lee that Reggae Drummer Carlos "Santa" Davis developed the now classic Flying Cymbal sound (with an open hi-hat on the 2nd and 4th count of every bar) in the mid 1970's.

Steppin' Youths tribute to this excellent producer focuses especially on the works that Bunny Lee did in this very same era of the mid 1970's. The time wherein singers like Johnny Clarke and Cornell Campbell sang their Conscious lyrics over the militant riddims played by Channel One Studio's House Band the Aggrovators.

Not just singers, though...

The Podcast features some very catchy DJ tracks by U Roy, Dillinger and others. Of course, King Tubby is there too with a number of heavyweight DUB version.

WWW, February 2008 - And you thought "Vintage Roots" would refer to 1970's Reggae Music? Think again: this is the 21st Century and the Paris based Steppin' Youth Sound System makes sure you won't forget that.

Fifty Minutes of rather contemporary Roots Reggae that will even make the Preterists realize that not everything nice must come from the distant past!


In this superb episode of the Steppin' Youth Podcast series, we're not going back further than the year 1990. At least, not until the last minutes of the excellent show.

Still, we at the Dubroom are sure that those who think that the only good Reggae comes from the 1970's will know themselves to be proven wrong after listening to the fifty minutes of Roots and Culture preserved in this Podcast.

The STEPPIN' YOUTH VINTAGE ROOTS MIX brings us some Conscious vocal tracks with their excellent DUB versions, skillfully mixed into one experience. A little extra echo here, a little wheel or rewind there: from the top to the very last drop this mix carries the mark of the connoisseur.

Regular visitors of the Dubroom will in the meantime have gotten used to the High Quality, Deep Roots played by the French Sound System, but those who read this review and never heard of STEPPIN' YOUTH before, have no more excuse.

WWW, February 2008 - Posting on the Dubroom Message Boards is definitely not for the weakhearts, especially not when you focus on the study and meditation of spiritual topics. You might just find someone stealing your name in order to spread the opposite of where you stand for.

In May 2006, that's almost 2 years ago, one member of the Dubroom Messageboards adopted a name that was -to say the least- very original. Ever since, RoshTovAri used this name to post his thoughtful meditations and contributions on a number of websites.

The name RoshTovAri is obviously a sign of respect to Rastafari and to what could loosely be called "Messianic believes" as the phrase goes in certain circles. It's quite an original name, and the chances that someone would come up with the same name are kind of low.

So far, so good...

Just recently, though, RoshTovAri -a student of the Holy Scriptures and it's culture- found out how his name had been hijacked and not just that. He found out, just how his name is even used to spread quite the opposite of what the original RoshTovAri stands for!

Reasons enough to check this out a little deeper, reasons enough for the Dubroom to Ring The Alarm as well.

After doing some in-depth research, the real RoshTovAri found out how the person that hijacked his name fits the description of an agent-provocateur more than anything else. Not only does this person write things that the original RoshTovAri would never write, he also does it in the name of "Orthodox Judaism".

A look to the picture that the agent-provocateur uses on several websites reveals even more. It's a rather frightening picture of a "Ninja" threatening to throw Stars of David at anyone who takes a look.



Here we obviously have a man-on-a-mission and that mission seems to be to create confusion between those that claim to be Orthodox Jews and those who are of the Messianic belief, as the phrase goes to describe ones like the real RoshTovAri.

Apart from posting on websites that clearly state how no one of that Messianic faith is welcome to post, in other words, websites where the real RoshTovAri would never post, he is also very active on YouTube where we can find him using foul language in writing his comments on things about Yeshuah Mashiach (Yesus Kristos, Jesus Christ) like "Schmuck" and "Nut" and even tells people to (quote) "die"...

On other websites, the agent-provocateur claims to be an Orthodox Jew, which makes it even more bizarre. Why would an "Orthodox Jew" adopt a name that is clearly Messianic? Of course, on the Internet "anyone" could claim to be "anything". However, the fact that this individual posts on websites that in their turn claim to be Orthodox Jewish as well, does raise questions.

Further research by the real and original RoshTovAri revealed, how this imitator has been using the name-that-is-not-his' since may 2007. That's about a year after the real RoshTovAri adopted the name for himself first on the Dubroom Messageboards and later on a number of other websites as well.

In an in-depth exposure on the Dubroom Message Boards, the real RoshTovAri sounded the alarm bell and provided all the necessary evidence to reveal how this is indeed a serious situation.

Beware of Imitators, especially when they clearly have a reason to do so!

MYSTERY BABYLON (39)



Dubroom Online - Edition February 13, 2008



"MYSTERY BABYLON (39)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 13 2008 - The dream that king Nebuchadnezzar had, showed how the "succeeding world empires" which are usually acknowledged in the school text books are all part of that one system of which the head is located in Babylon.

On the other hand, the dream also shows how there is no mention of "evolution", but quite the contrary. Everything started with gold, only to end in a bizarre mix of iron and clay.

There is something more to say about that mix-up, but for now, we notice that there is no mention of evolution and progress.

Oddly enough, this very same thing can be said about just any "civilization" that has been recognized by the scientists and archeologists. Closer research will reveal, how each and everyone of them... started at their peak!

REGGAE NEWS PODCAST #1
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW




WWW, February 2008 - The UK based Reggaenews website has our attention for a long time now. They introduced us to some very interesting artists and bands and with the start of the Reggaenews Podcast we can only give thanks and praise once more.

In just eight titles, of which only one comes without (excellent) DUB version, the first episode of the Reggaenews Podcast takes us back to studios in Jamaica, the USA and the UK.

In chronological order, that is...

And in a no-nonsense style too!

The show starts with a couple of older Jamaican releases, of which especially the legendary King Tubby DUB of Cornell Campbells "Two-Face Rasta" stands out. After a couple of US based releases, we go straight to the UK and listen to some 10" releases by the independent SHEMESH label which at the time the Podcast was mixed were still unreleased.

This is the kind of Podcast that has something for everyone, and the fact that all titles come from vinyl will also be pleasing in the ears of certain ones who can still not get used to the digital sound of the CD.

Get this one while it's still around!


PLAYLIST

1. Twinkle Brothers - Room full all full (Camel 7")
2. Cornell Campbell - Two face Rasta + Version (Barbell 7")

MYSTERY BABYLON (38)



Dubroom Online - Edition February 12, 2008



"MYSTERY BABYLON (38)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 12 2008 - According to the second chapter of the Book of Daniel in the Bible, the king of Babylon had a dream.

Nebuchadnezzar saw a big statue of himself. The head was made of gold, the chest and arms made of silver, the legs were made of iron and the feet were made partly of iron and clay.

It turned out, that the different parts of the statue were symbolical for the four stages in which Mystery Babylon would try to achieve the One World Order she craves for so much.

From head to toe, though, we seen a decreasing level of strength and beauty. The two feet were actually made of iron and clay, which everybody knows doesn't mix too well.

PETER TOSH - STEPPING RAZOR, RED X
Dubroom (DUB) Reggae Video Review




WWW, February 2008 - Based on the autobiographical "Red-X Tapes" only found after his death, Stepping Razor takes us to the life, works, motivation and meditation of Peter Tosh.

Get ready for one of the better documentaries made on Reggae and Rastafari!


During his life, nobody seemed to know about his secret tapes. He marked them "Red X", because, as he explains, he always saw his name on official documents marked with a red X. He knew he was going to die one time for the things that he said...

It looks like the plot of a conspiracy movie, but in realty they formed the blueprint for this impressive documentary, that should be seen by everyone even remotely interested in the Conscious side of Reggae Music.

In the movie, we are confronted with a number of witnesses and facts that throw enormous amounts of doubt to the official story around the killing of Peter Tosh, that says he was killed at a "robbery". Original (bloody) photo's and reconstructions add to what is yet another clear case of a Babylonian Assassination of yet another Freedom Fighter and Truth Teller.

We can hear how Peter Tosh speaks about his childhood, too, when he was terrorized by the Babylonian doctrines of "Christianity". A "Christianity" that told black people, they were born black because of their iniquity and how "Jesus" would wash them "Whiter as Snow".

Obviously, being by far the most militant of the Wailers, we are also introduced to the (spiritual) warrior that he was. Peter Tosh was very much aware of the existence of evil and how only the Creator Himself could protect him from it by giving him the power to fight against evil.

This war of the devil against JAH was the predominant theme in the life and works of Peter Tosh, who is quoted in the movie as saying: "Knowing the Truth is dangerous. You can get killed over it".

No, this is not your average biographical documentary about your average super star. Even though the video also shows his carrier as a musician, STEPPING RAZOR actually goes much deeper than that and the result is one of the better documentaries made about Reggae and Rasta.

"MYSTERY BABYLON (37)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 11 2008 - From the days wherein Nimrod founded Babylon after the Great Flood until this current age of globalization, we can discover a long, unbroken line.

"Empires" came and went, but not really. The culture, the religion, the politicks: everything stayed just the way it was and only changed in details such as the geographical location of the main power centers.

It's in our face, too!

The official version of earth's history speaks about the region of Babel as the "cradle of civilization" and the current globalist era as an "obvious result" of the "evolution of civilization"...

DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW




WWW, February 2008 - In part two of "Digital Roots", we dig deeper and deeper into the fertile soil of Reggae Music to discover the heartical and upfull vibes from especially UK DUB and ROOTS!

Next to Jamaican productions, UK DUB is a powerful notion within Reggae Music. UK Roots is another one. Especially with the introduction of digital techniques in the 1980's, the difference between Jamaica and the UK based music became apparent.

Jamaica "went Sleng-Teng" and "slackness" became the order of the day in the Dance, where many UK based Sound Systems and studios further developed Roots Music in Word and Sound.

This Roots Tradition is upheld until this very day. Arguably, you actually have more chance to find spiritual and other conscious lyrics than slackness in a UK ROOTS release!

Part two of Steppin' Youths excellent presentation of (digital) UK DUB and ROOTS takes us straight into the conscious heart and soul of an all-star list of representants of the genre.

We're being treated to a number of great vocal tunes, where most titles will come with their DUB version as well. DUB versions, all skillful works of Art.

A huge part is reserved for the productional works of Steve Moscoe aka JAH WARRIOR, whose collaboration with Jamaican vocalists and Dougie Wardrop's Conscious Sounds Studio produced too much fruits to mention.

Another great Podcast from the Paris based STEPPIN' YOUTH Sound System!

"MYSTERY BABYLON (36)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 10 2008 - Nimrod's dream to create a One-World-Order was significantly hindered by the Most High's response to his initial attempt.

Now, in the 21st century, it becomes more and more clear how throughout history there has been a plan to unify the world under one Church and State, namely that of Mystery Babylon.

We live in the age of what is known as "Globalization".

Politicians, religious leaders, scientists and journalists all agree that we are rapidly heading towards the creation of a One World System. And most of them are enthusiastic about it, too!

You will hear them say that this is the obvious result of "the evolution of civilization", but those who know about Mystery Babylon and her ancient plan, would rather speak about an "Intelligent Design".

MUDIE'S MOOD: A HARRY MUDIE TRIBUTE
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW




WWW, February 2008 - In the 1950's, long before there was such a thing as "Rasta Reggae" or even "Reggae", Jamaican producer Harry Mudie started recording the Rasta music of Count Ossie.

A tribute to a man and his carrier!


Harry Mudie's carrier is truly long-lasting. After initially starting a Sound System in the 1950's, he shortly went to the UK to get education in electronics and subsequently founded his own club in Jamaica.

Not only was he the first to record Rasta Music, in a time wherein the word Reggae was yet to come into existence, he is also said to be the first producer to use string on Reggae Music.

Mudie has a number of classic riddims written to his account as well. The magnificent "Drifter" Riddim, for example.

Still, the name of Harry Mudie is not widely known, not even among Reggae Lovers. And this is where the crew behind the Melodies Of War podcast try to make a change, for which we give thanks.

MUDIE'S MOOD contains an interesting selection of productions, mostly of them from around the early 1970's, late 1960's. Mostly, but not solely: the show ends with a digital stylee, a hint towards the impressive length of Mudie's carrier.

Singers and Players of Instruments, DJ's and DUB engineers all give acte d'presence in 43 minutes of upfull Reggae Music that will definitely please the lover of a better style of Reggae Music.

MYSTERY BABYLON (35)



Dubroom Online - Edition February 9, 2008



"MYSTERY BABYLON (35)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 9 2008 - The reason why JAH divided the world into 70 or 72 different nations after the Tower of Babel incident had everything to do with the fact that the founder of Babylon tried to create a One-World-Order.

The Most High appointed a god over each and every one of these territories. Even though the 70 or 72 different nations would acknowledge each other's gods, this did not mean the gods were living in perfect love and harmony with each other.

Ancient accounts tell us all about the "wars in the heavens" wherein the gods even fought each other down. Or they would simply use the people they were appointed over to fight these wars out for them.

WWW, February 2008 - The first part of yet another great Podcast by the French based Steppin' Youth Sound System starts with a digital variation on a theme: introducing the "Digital Wheel"...

A significant number of people would speak about 1970's Rockers and even about 1980's Rub a Dub (early dancehall) and call it "Roots". Let's call them preterists: people with a rather unhealthy love for the past.

Yes, unfortunately, many people think, that "Roots Reggae" refers to music of the past. And by thinking that, they would indirectly proclaim Reggae Music to be dead.

Steppin' Youth is here to proof them wrong with an excellent two-part Podcast simply named "Digital Roots". Indeed: Roots Music has nothing to do with musicians as opposed to programmed material. Nothing to do with stuff having to be on vinyl rather than on CD.

The Roots Music in this Podcast is all created in the last 10-15 years, with each and every selection being a School Example of what Roots Reggae Music really is.

On top of that, the French based Sound System plays the tunes in Showcase Style, too: that means that each vocal comes with an (excellent) DUB Version.

WWW, February 8 2008 - Church and State, two sides of the very same coin. That coin being the System we identify as Babylon System.

It's as much a System as a Plan.

It's a System that aims to bring back the situation during the Days of Noah, and in order to do so, Babylon has to unite all 70 or 72 regions of the world.

It's a Plan that had to come into existence after the failed attempt to unify the world by opening the bottomless pit located somewhere in what is now known as Iraq: The Tower of Babel incident.

A plan that came into existence thousands of years ago, coming remarkably close to it's purpose in our time!

"MYSTERY BABYLON (33)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 7 2008 - Babylon's Mystery Religion is the mother of all major religions. That religion basically is the worship of the gods and those who claimed to be their offspring.

Starting with Nimrod, the kings and queens that work(ed) in Babylon System all claimed to be children of the gods, and there are archeological findings that back up this claim to the fullness.

Obviously, we are talking about a system that needs politicks and religion to work together.

Which it indeed does.

For where some would speak about a "Separation of Church and State" to describe the system, a better wording would be: "Separation into Church and State".

"MYSTERY BABYLON (32)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 6 2008 - The Babylonian Mystery Religion is the mother of all religions.

This religion is basically the worship of the gods and the priest and kings who in their turn claimed descend of these gods.

The figure of Nimrod, the founder of Babylon, was the first in the post-flood world to claim this. It is written in the Bible as well that indeed, Nimrod became one of the Gibborim.

Nimrod is also known under various other names. The Egyptian Osiris, for example, is believed by most serious researchers to be Nimrod as well.

In fact, it seems like the founder of Bab-el has been traveling all over the world to "bring civilization", the Babylonian Mystery Religion being just one aspect of what we now know as the "Church And State System".

VERSION BIG-FI - EVERYTHING BUT
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW




WWW, January 2008 - In the mean time, in a place called Reading, UK based DUB Duo Version Big-Fi has been working hard to produce their first full-length album.

The result? Well, it's... Everything But!


According to the liner notes, Version Big-Fi tries to stay away from the runnings in the Music Industry. Tone and Papa Sparks "simply" do their own thing: use digital contemporary techniques, sample a little bit and produce some killer tunes.

Until recently, the Duo had only released a few singles and a number of great Podcasts under the name "Stop That Train", all reviewed by the Dubroom and with very good reason.

"Everything But" is Version Big-Fi's first full length album, downloadable for free from their website. Eleven tracks, all with their own specific vibe and style, in which elements of the past and the present are mixed together with an obvious look to the future.

The album is everything but boring, everything but sleepy, everything but ignorable. All tracks are highly danceable because of the magnificent drum and bass lines.

Reggae and (Two-Tone) Ska drum and basslines form the main foundational ingredients of the eleven riddims on the album, while it is clear that Version Big-Fi enjoys the music by Dreadzone as well.

This is definitely the kind of music that belongs in the collection of every self respecting collector of free and legal (DUB) MP3's. The music can be downloaded for free, but when you can, the UK based DUB Duo would apprecilove a donation of any kind.

This Internet release is true 21st Century DUB!

WWW, February 5 2008 - The mother of all religions is the Mystery Religion of Babylon.

It is really a two-faced religion, where the clergy know a different thing than the laity: Priests, kings and gods on one hand, the people on the other.

The laity serves the elite, and if they don't they will fear the wrath of the gods, kings, and other rulers.

The kings and priests claimed the "Divine Right to Rule" based on the fact, that they were factually descendants of the gods.

Nimrod, the founder of Bab-El, was actually the first of the pre-flood kings to claim this "superhuman" identity.

Can't really call this a Podcast: it's an album, actually. An album with seven excellent remakes of seven well known tunes by well known vocalists.

With one exception, they're all voiced by the original vocalists and come with an excellent DUB version in the second part.

Can't really call it an album of remixes either: these are Mix Plates, says TK HiFi. Mix Plates are complete remakes of the tune, usually played by Sound Systems.

How they do it, we will never know. But how it sounds, does not have to remain a question for too long. Just download and play as I would say.

You will hear just over 47 minutes of pure Reggae Music, Showcase style: every track comes with a vocal part followed by an excellent DUB. You will hear the seven well known tracks in a way you have not heard them before and will not hear them again.

WWW, February 4 2008 - The mother of all religions can be found in Babylon or Bab El as it was called by the founder, Nimrod.

We know it as the Mystery Religion of Babylon and it was basically the world religion that came into existence right after the failed Tower of Babel incident.

The planet was divided in 70 or 72 different regions, each one having their own god appointed by the Most High God, JAH.

Priests and kings had contact with the gods, and even more: some of them claimed descendance of these gods!

The 1970's Canadian release turns out to be the original and historical Canadian release of Prince Alla's 1970's tune "Bozrah". And it's not the only highlight in the House of Reggae #19.

In fact, the whole hour is filled with interesting beats and bytes all leading towards a higher overstanding of the many different aspects of Reggae Music and Culture.

The show starts off with an ancient Dennis Brown track, followed by a deeply spiritual extended tune by Prince Alla and Tappa Zukie of which our host gladfully provides the biblical background information as well.

Another highlight in the show is formed by an obscure Lee Perry and King Tubby collaboration, from the pre-Black Ark era. Ian plays both sides of the original 7" vinyl single, and showcases some later Perry productions as well.

Another episode in what is surely one of the most informative Reggae podcasts in Cyberspace!

ZEITGEIST: AN EXCURSION INTO STUPIDITY

ZEITGEIST: AN EXCURSION INTO STUPIDITY
BABYLON OBERVER VIDEO REVIEW




WWW, February 2008 - The recently released Internet Video "Zeitgeist" brings us the latest New Age spin on "Religion", "9/11" and other Babylonian projects.

How the Son becomes the Sun and claims backed by money rather than facts...


"Zeitgeist": a German word which can be translated as Spirit-Of-The-Time. The word is often used to describe the cultural and intellectual climate of a certain time.

"Zeitgeist": the name of a recently released Internet Documentary perfectly capturing the Spirit-Of-The-Time in this post-modern era. An era, wherein plain logic and truthful reasonings are anathema even though this is not acknowledged by those who follow the Zeitgeist.

The makers of the movie Zeitgeist, for example...

Claiming to fight the Zeitgeist, in reality they are promoting it big-time in a video that is full of errors, psychological manipulations, rhetorics and hollow sound bytes.

In fact, it's almost impossible to believe how the movie can ever be taken seriously...

But Zeitgeist is (to be) taken seriously!

On the movie's website, we find the announcement of a "Z-Day" somewhere in March 2008. On "Z-day" the video will be screened at countless of places all over the world. (LINK)

Obviously, there's money behind the Zeitgeist Movie. Big money, even, money that is donated rather than invested: the movie is professionally produced and promoted, while the multi-million downloads at Google Video didn't bring the makers much money either.

Someone obviously has a message to get across. Someone obviously has the money to back up the many claims in the video as well, but do the facts back up the claims, too?

One article on the Internet entitled "Beauty Is Truth", wherein the video is reviewed, has this to say (emph. BO):

The Truth Movement's newest, most popular film is a documentary called Zeitgeist. Not nearly as professional as Change—the first five minutes consist of a black screen with bad audio of a professor discussing conspiracy theories dubbed over it—Zeitgeist still has weird power: Based solely on anecdotal evidence, it's probably drawing more people into the Truth movement than anything else. LINK

Actually, the "professor" in the introduction is a well-known writer and lecturer called Jordan Maxwell. Jordan Maxwell can be considered the "father" of David Icke and Michael Tsarion, two well-known authors and lecturers within the New Age Movement.

In their books, video's and lectures, these men will expose many things about the New World Order, another word for Babylon System. However, they will equally teach their audience the doctrines of the Mystery Religion of Babylon.

And most of all: they will present it as "the Truth"...

After all, their work is supposed to contribute to the "Truth Movement", just like the movie "Zeitgeist". But when "Beauty Is Truth", how "true" is the message of the movie?

Beautiful it is, that's a fact.

At least, when you don't like "religion". Or to be more specifically, "Christianity". Or even more specific: "fundamentalist Christians like George Bush".

The main message of the movie Zeitgeist, namely, is the very same as that which can be found in an FBI report called "Project Megiddo", wherein the statement is made how those who believe that the Biblical Apocalypse is at hand are to be seen as "terrorists":

Religiously based domestic terrorists use the New Testament’s Book of Revelation -- the prophecy of the endtime -- for the foundation of their belief in the Apocalypse. (LINK)

In an interview with the maker of the movie Zeitgeist, he speaks about the "Cult of Christianity" being responsible for just about every evil you can think of, including the current "War on Terror".

Christianity, a "cult"?

Yes, says the Zeitgeist. Christianity is a cult of the ancient pagan Sun worship and Jesus Christ is nothing but a mythological figure invented to describe an astrological process leading to a New Age, that of Aquarius.

After all, Jesus was born on the 25th of December, just like all other Sun Gods, right? And since He called Himself the Light of the World, it's pretty clear how Jesus is not the SON (of God), but the SUN! In the end, it's just a small step from O to U, right?

Right...

Welcome to the bizarre reasoning of Zeitgeist: The Movie.

The first part of the three-part video can, and perhaps should, be described as "an excursion into stupidity". Facts and fiction are mixed, while the reasoning itself is so absurd that anyone who believes the claims should be considered a serious case of intellectual disability.

All of this wouldn't even be worth writing about, if it were not for the fact that countless of people worldwide apparantly do believe the claims. And it's highly unlikely, that the majority of them will be open for the many excellent rebuttals of these claims, such as the Video "Zeitgeist Refuted".

To make it even more bizarre, parts two and three of the video are very factual and to-the-point. The second part contains an excellent summary of evidence which proofs how 9/11 was an Inside Job, where part three takes us deeper into the shady world of (quote) "the men behind the curtain".

So, what is going on? What is, to quote that one article "Beauty Is Truth", the "weird power of Zeitgeist"?

Hmmm...

Wait a minute...

"Beauty is Truth"?

"When It Looks Good, It Must Be True"?

There's indeed a weird power of Zeitgeist and that weird power is nothing less than the power of Reverse Reasoning. The kind of reasoning you can expect from your average New Age propagandist, but not from a member of a self-proclaimed "Truth Movement".

Beauty, namely, does not necessarily have to be true. But for a member of the Truth Movement, the opposite would apply very well: "Truth Is Beautiful"!

In the video, we hear Jordan Maxwell saying: "You Shall Know the Truth And The Truth Shall Set You Free". Apart from the fact that this saying can be found in the offices of the CIA, the original quote came out of the Mouth from the One Who is said to be a myth: Jesus Christ.

You see, Jesus Christ is worshipped as God by many within the Truth Movement. Even though the Truth Movement itself is not religious or spiritual persay, many will call themselves "Christian".

Christianity, and especially the Person and Message of Jesus Christ, is an offense and a stumbling block for the New Age Movement, who seeks to re-install the Days of Noah or "Atlantis".

The New Age Movement is known to be very aggressive and has an elaborate infiltration program as it seeks to transform every aspect of society and humanity in order to inaugurate a New Age: the "Age of Aquarius"...

This "New Age" is supposed to replace the current one, the "Age of the Fishes" represented by... Jesus Christ.

Closer research into the doctrines of the New Age Movement will reveal how everything is part of a plan to re-install the situation as it was in the days of Noah, or "Atlantis".

Obviously, this very same New Age Movement has it's agents in the Truth Movement as well. Agents like Michael Tsarion and now, more recently, Peter Joseph of Zeitgeist: The Movie.

For the movie Zeitgeist is a New Age document avant la lettre.

Not only does it announce the New Age of Aquarius that gave name to the New Age Movement in the first place, it contains all the standard (astrological) New Age Doctrines and Interpretations as well.

Zeitgeist: The Movie therefore is nothing more than a Propaganda Piece for a Movement that serves the very same New World Order it claims to oppose.

Nuff Said.

MYSTERY BABYLON (29)



Dubroom Online - Edition February 3, 2008


"MYSTERY BABYLON (29)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 3 2008 - The existence of the 70 or 72 different gods, all appointed to one region on earth, was no question to the people who lived just after the Tower of Bab-el incident.

People would -and will still- see them, or their agents, in their flying craft. Ancient accounts and contemporary UFO sightings from all over the world are remarkably identical, while archeological finds and sites will confirm the very same fact.

The gods required worship and even sacrifices, and -just like today- they had the priests and kings to make sure they got what they wanted.

Researchers of all walks of life have uncovered, how after the Great Flood there was one basic religion and how this religion is the mother of all current religions.

This religion in the Mystery Religion of Babylon!

More tomorrow...

MYSTERY BABYLON (28)



Dubroom Online - Edition February 2, 2008


"MYSTERY BABYLON (28)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 2 2008 - The Tower-Of-Babel project was basically a failed attempt to create a One World Order in the style of Atlantis or the Days of Noah.

To stop this, The Most High JAH didn't just confuse the people's language as popular belief tells us. JAH also divided the entire planet earth into 70 or 72 different territories.

Each and every one of these territories had their own god, appointed by the Most High to take care of business. In the Bible, they are called by names such as "Prince of Persia" and "Prince of Greece".

These gods were more often than not at war with each other, while in the same time they would usually terrorize the people as well.

MYSTERY BABYLON (27)



Dubroom Online - Edition February 1, 2008



"MYSTERY BABYLON (27)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 1 2008 - A look to ancient sites and books will reveal, just how much the gods were interacting with the priests and kings throughout the ages.

Even stronger: all the ancient civilization will tell stories how the gods themselves would come down and bring "civilization". The ancients would all have a worship directed at the specific god of their territory.

You can say, that all the ancient civilizations would have the same religion: they would worship the territorial god of the land they lived in while acknowledging the god of their neighbor, too.

In their turn, these territorial gods would have to obey a higher council, too. A divine council, that would very much interact with human beings too.
