MYSTERY BABYLON (183)

"MYSTERY BABYLON (183)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, November 23 2008 - Just how did I commit spiritual fornication with Mystery Babylon by joining the "Christian Reggae Scene"?

For that, we have to take a look at "physical fornication". After all, Babylon is presented to us in a physical symbol.

When a man and a woman have intercourse, they "mix", they "become one flesh". And when that man and that woman are not each other's partners, they become one flesh where they should not do that.

Ergo: fornication is -in a way- just another word for "mixing that which should not be mixed".

Mixing that which should not be mixed, or "con-fusion": it's marking the identity nature and personality of Mystery Babylon.

For Babylon means: "con-fusion", "mix-up"... fornication!

More Tomorrow...

One Love, Give Thanks,

DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW



WWW, November 2008 - You guessed it: A tribute to the Mighty, Mighty sound of the Horn Section. However, this is a tribute of the Horn Section where you might just not expect it: in the usually very digital realms of UK DUB!

As we step from one crucial DUB into the next, the Mighty Horns are everywhere without taking us into a vibe where only those that "also like jazz" would love to stay throughout the entire length of this podcast.

Don't worry, though.

Unless you really don't like DUB.

But then, you wouldn't be here reading this.

So, let's step into this tribute of the Mighty Horns as we go from crucial and deep UK DUB into the next. Many Zion Train projects are present, like the Tassili Players and Love Grocer. Dennis Bovell is there, the man behind just too much DUB to mention. Vibronics, and the German based Sir Larsie-I: All in all, just too much niceness to be left un-downloaded.

Seen?

DUBROOM VIDEO REVIEW



WWW, November 2008 - In 2002, Reggae and DUB had come a long way, resulting in many sub-genres emerging throughout the decades. Thievery Corporation is one of the collectives that came out of this development.

As we see pictures of the many wicked things Babylon does to the people of the world, a smooth and groovy music plays and the singer tells us all about the Mystery.

When the four minutes are over, you know one thing: you don't wanna be The Richest Man In Babylon.

Musically, the clip is just as interesting as the topic. We hear a melodic form of toasting, we hear a drum and bass beat that is not Reggae but still does give a Reggae vibe, or to be more precise: a DUB vibe.

Electronic Music, straight to Babylon Head!
