MYSTERY BABYLON (142)



Dubroom Online - Edition July 24-31, 2008



"MYSTERY BABYLON (142)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, July 24 2008 - In order to see just how we can step out of Babylon, Christianity is (one of) the best example(s). And, just like the word "Babylon", there's a lot to be discovered in the name of the group that was started by Jesus Christ: the Church.

Is the Church a building with a phallic symbol called steeple and basically a brainwash institution to make you a mental slave of the Shitstem?

Or is the Church a group of people who are called "Ecclesia" ("Church") or "the called out ones"?

It completely depends on who you believe to speak the truth. Babylon will tell you to visit the building, join the organization and start serving the shitstem.

Jesus Christ, however, will tell you to Step Out Of Babylon. He even defines His group as "Those Who Are Called To Step Out Of Babylon".

When Christians are confronted with this, you will see the Mystery at work. You will see, just how difficult it can be for the initiated to even see themselves for who they are.

PS: It's summer time, and mysteriously I am led into the studio where I am making riddims and Dubs for release later this year, next month or so. This is the reason why the Dubroom isn't updated frequently.

TRACK DESCRIPTION

This is the 3rd track of the Messian Dread album "Showcase".

More Roots music, this one in steppers rhythm. With timbales on the 2nd and 4th count, this one applies a rhythm that you can hear a lot in Misty in Roots great live album "Live at Countervision".

The lyrics were written way back in around 1988, but the music is completely different.

First there is the vocal part, then the horns play a part of the theme before echo's and other effects enter the mix and the tune is completely transformed, in Jamaican old skool style!

LYRICS

Only a foolish man build a house on the sand
Only a foolish man build a house on that land
Only a foolish man say that Jah Jah is dead
Only a foolish man will bless his own bread
Only a fool with life his life alone
Without Jah to stand by his side
Without Jah to guide him with light

Only a foolish man ignore Jah Jah truth
Only a foolish man reject what is good
Only a foolish man is trodding bad ways
Only a foolish man is sleeping this days
Only a fool will live his life alone
Without Jah to stand by his side
Without Jah to guide him with light

Only a wize man is longing for Jah
Only a wize man living with Jah
Only Jah Jah will give his life meaning
Only Jah Jah will guide him all day

TRACK DESCRIPTION

This is the 15th and final track of the Messian Dread album "Showcase".

Concluding this album with the hardest tune of all. It's a track in HARDCORE DUB Style: an enigmatic chord progression and a thunderous drums that together with a very lively bassline almost gives the track a Punky feeling.

Another version of this track was also used, to conclude another album: one called "Reasonings in Dub" which can be downloaded for free.

But this one goes much further: it contains singing as well as toasting, and much more DUB mixing too.


LYRICS

(singing)

Judgment, judgment come on di land
People wize up and overstand
Judgment, judgment come upon dem
All who work for Babylon plan

Open, open, book of the seals
Thunder, lightning, the Lion reveals
Yesus Kristos He come again
Rule us all so mankind repent

(chanting:)

Judgment judgment Come On The Land
Judgment Judgement Come On The Land
None Of The People Overstand

JAH JAH Judgment Coming On The Land
JAH JAH Judgment Coming On The Land
