FREEDOM OF SPEECH (1)

"FREEDOM OF SPEECH (1)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, June 12 2009 - Currently, I'm working on a double interview with a fellow online artist concerning a whole lot of topics, ranging from mp3 sales to world events and a lot of things concerning the online (DUB) Reggae Artist community.

It's gonna be in-depth, obviously. One of the issues we talk about is "Freedom of Speech".

Or maybe more explicitly, the right to that freedom.

A JAH-given right, that is.

As many of our JAH-given rights are being stolen because Babylon cannot afford too much Truth Exposure, I do think it is time for conscious people to meditate a little bit deeper on the need for that freedom of speech.

One Love, Give Thanks,

ITEMS FOR THIS EDITION:

DAWA HIFI - ANTIK THINGS (DUBROOM NET ALBUM REVIEW)

WWW, June 2009 - Brand New, Good For You: at least for us as listeners and searchers for the better online DUB. Antik Things refers to the fact that the five tracks on Dawa Hi-Fi's début EP are produced one or two years ago. Does it matter?

MAD PROFESSOR - DUB YOU CRAZY WITH LOVE (DUBROOM ALBUM REVIEW)

WWW, June 2009 - It's not just, that he is known for his original and creative DUB mixes. A thing, for which he stands at a lonely height when it comes to the Art of DUB.

His originality includes original concepts, too. What about this 16 track collection of superb Dubs from original Lover's Rock tunes produced by Neil Fraser, aka Mad Professor, in his Ariwa Sound Studio's?

DAWA HI-FI - ANTIK THINGS
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW

WWW, June 2009 - Brand New, Good For You: at least for us as listeners and searchers for the better online DUB. Antik Things refers to the fact that the five tracks on Dawa Hi-Fi's début EP are produced one or two years ago. Does it matter?

The French label Original DUB Gathering, started by DUB Collective Ondubground, knows how to introduce artists to the online massive. Too bad, the collective have not released any début album on their own label, but with Panda Dub and Dawa Hi-Fi they got some impressive material already.

It's a French Interpretation of UK Dub, and the mix goes well. Dawa Hi-Fi love their steppers, they love to bring out the echo machine on top of some massive drum and basslines and that's just how we, the online DUB Massive, like it to be.

Crucial and more than crucial as I would say!

MAD PROFESSOR - DUB YOU CRAZY WITH LOVE
DUBROOM ALBUM REVIEW

WWW, June 2009 - It's not just, that he is known for his original and creative DUB mixes. A thing, for which he stands at a lonely height when it comes to the Art of DUB.

His originality includes original concepts, too. What about this 16 track collection of superb Dubs from original Lover's Rock tunes produced by Neil Fraser, aka Mad Professor, in his Ariwa Sound Studio's?

One would almost forget it: with the enormous flood of DUB albums coming from Mad Professor's Ariwa studio's, he also releases an equal amount of vocal albums in a wide variety of Reggae styles, and sometimes even beyond.

His upfull Lover's Rock releases, for example. Sweetness galore, but how does this actually sound when Mad Professor creates some DUB mixes from several of his Lover's Rock riddims?

Dub You Crazy With Love obviously gives the answer.

In 16 tracks, the Mad Professor creates a nice atmosphere that will definitely enhance the vibe when two people who love each other decide to be together for a while, without anyone watching. They could just decide to let it go, while the album plays.

Arguably, without too much words, the Lover's Rock is getting into the Love Vibe even more. Do not expect too much spaced out and tripped out parts, do expect an easy chilled out time where some righteous loving is accompanied by some righteous dubbing in several senses of the word.
