REGGAE REVOLUTION (DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW)

REGGAE REVOLUTION
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW




WWW, April 2008 - Tappa Zukie's "Revolution" sets the tone for a 37 minute selection of heavyweight and militant Rockers, Dub, Dancehall and Roots that may definitely carry the name that it does.

Blessed!


As we move from one riddim into the next, we feel strength within ourselves to move forward and chant down Babylon one more time.

Reggae Revolution, a Righteous Revolution! While the music hits, we feel no pain but it goes straight to Babylon head as well. The show takes us straight back to the 1970's and onward as we are being treated with a flood of musical militancy.

When the 37 minute mix ends with an energizing Drum 'n' Bass call to a (Reggae) Revolution, we surely gained some necessary strength.

Blessed!

RAS MESSENGERS - "EGYPT LAND" (1982)
DUBROOM VIDEO REVIEW




WWW, April 2008 - Admitted: the title of this incomplete, three-minute Nyabinghy session by the UK based Ras Messengers recorded in 1982 is a guess of yours truly.

Actually, the session is taken from the movie "Race, Rhetoric, Rastafari" by Jamaican film maker Barbara Blake-Hanna which you can check out on www.reggaefilms.co.uk. The video deals with racism in the UK during the early 1980's and has -next to Ras Messengers- music by I Jah Man Levi and others.

"Egypt Land" is an up-tempo Nyabinghy track. Nyabinghy means "Death To Black And White Downpressors" and is a rhythm distinct from Reggae.

Actually, Nyabinghy is true Rasta Music where Reggae is not necessarily played by Rasta-only artists. Actually, there are Rastas who would argue that Rastas should not play Reggae but stick to the natural sound of the hand drums playing Nyabinghy while chanting to Jah.

See, hear and feel three minutes of pure Nyabinghy drumming and Rastaman chanting: blessed!
