DUBROOM ALBUM REVIEW
In the third release of his now classic Dub Me Crazy Series, we capture the Mad Professor in his Ariwa laboratory, eeh, studio.
The year is 1983 and we're talking about twelve top tunes from a time wherein not many seemed to realize how DUB had more of a future than a past.
Who know the amount of albums and single DUB releases by the man behind Ariwa Studio's? The number is countless. Mad Professor's oeuvre is impressive in quality, but even more important: in quality. This album shows it once again...
Just imagine, a quarter of a century ago. The Internet was still under development by Darpa, digital technology was shunned by many and the CD was a novelty or not even yet...
This is the time, wherein the twelve tracks on this superb DUB album have been mixed. Mixed by hand, using a combination of analogue and digital equipment, everything connected in a weary that only a Mad Professor would invent.
Humor and seriousness are combined in a sugar-and-spice tradition of which the Mad Professor seems to have a patent. His humor is unprecedented and he stands on single heights when it comes to translating humor into mixing.
Definitely an addition to your respected collection of DUB Albums!
