ALPHA AND OMEGA WITH THE DISCIPLES FEATURING DAN I - ROARING LION

ALPHA AND OMEGA WITH THE DISCIPLES FEATURING DAN I - ROARING LION
DUBROOM VIDEO REVIEW

image


WWW, February 2009 - What happens when two of the Top UK DUB Producers join hands with a crucial vocalist and video maker? Exactly, that's what you wanna see.

hard stepping, militant beat is one of Russ D's specialties. Together with his collective The Disciples, he's caused several earthquakes in dances all around the world. Just like Alpha and Omega, the Dynamic UK DUB Duo that chose the deepest bass as their trademark.

In this video, they join hands in what has become a massive track, massive among the massive that is!

The accompanying vocal and video work is of the very same quality as the excellent track, altogether forming an experience that on one hand is way to long, but on the other hand also wants you to watch the other Alpha and Omega video's, reviewed by the Dubroom or not.

"DMB 2.0 (1)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 28 2009 - Well, it's kind of official now: the previous host of the Dubroom Message Boards is no more. I have discovered a confirmation of this message, and so, yeah, well, eeh....

We can now officially speak of the fact that the old Dubroom Message Boards were version 1.0, and since a few weeks we have the Dubroom Message Boards 2.0, or in short: DMB 2.0

Time to look forward, as it is evident that not even the data can be retrieved from the old servers. Everything is simply gone...

Gone like the winter, here in the Netherlands. In a few days, it's gonna be springtime over here which also is a perfect reason to look forward as slowly nature start to wake up again to give us JAH blessings...

WWW, February 2009 - Brand new, good for you! Straight, upfull Reggae Music, combined with a positive message delivered by two vocalists, straight from Yard to the soul of the world wide Reggae Massive!

"Don't get brainwash, you're gonna get a brain crash", is the message. The message by Natty "No Guns To Two" king singing melody and Professional DaynJah delivering the DJ part.

Interesting is, that the music is more Roots Reggae than one would expect, a sing that "Back to Roots" is a timeless thing. On the other hand, there is rap influence in Professional's toasting, but he is taking it straight into Reggae in a positive way.

Interesting, necessary: so check it out!

WAR AGAINST REGGAE

Dubroom Online - February 27 2009


"WAR AGAINST REGGAE" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 27 2009 - Reggae Music remains to be a Freedom Sound, even though there are many who "lapsed", or did the opposite: Jumped On The Band Wagon.

All of this is part of the fact that nothing in this fallen Creation will be perfect. Even stronger, everything in this fallen creation is subject to decay.

But there is also something else going on, ever since Reggae Music "threatened" to become the Sounds of Freedom on the World Wide scale that Reggae is currently being appreciloved.

There's a "War on Drugs", a "War on Terror", but there is also a "War On Reggae".

A War Against Reggae, even.

BURNING SPEAR SPEAKS OUT!
DUBROOM VIDEO REVIEW


WWW, February 2009 - They even go so far to try and have Winston Rodney's wife arrested by the police, in order to stop Burning Spear. That is, after they downstroyed thousands of CD's. Burning Spear reports from the frontline in the "War Against Reggae"!


He is an example for many artists, not in the least because Winston Rodney aka Burning Spear is independent of the mainstream labels as he owns his own productions. Still going strong, releasing album after album between annual world tours, he is obviously a pain in the ass for the multinationals who own virtually all labels of any significance.

Of course, there is money involved in all of this. Half a million dollar, to be exact. Burning Spear is robbed from tens of thousands of his CD's, destroyed by distribution warehouse company "Megaforce" while they sell non-destroyed CD's under the table in record stores.

Since he is an independent artist, his dependence is on the income he gets and since his independence is a pain in the ass for the multinationals that want to dominate the musical airwaves with their propaganda, he is currently targeted bigtime by the dependant companies.

In this video, he speaks out about it. See and hear a report from the frontline in the ongoing War Against Reggae.

NEW AGE RAGE

image

Dubroom Online - February 26 2009


"NEW AGE RAGE" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 26 2009 - For today's edition of Dubroom Online, there is an addition to the Babylon Observer series entitled "New Age Rage".

It's a series that takes a humoristic look at segments of Mystery Babylon. Just like the Most High Himself is recorded to laugh about the Shitstem (see the second psalm for that), so can we also laugh about the obvious stupidities and so on that accompany the Mystery in her upcoming downfall.

In the video "David Icke, the Lizards and the Jews", we meet up with the political correct crowd that just doesn't know what to do with this maverick in the matrix and turns to the most "outrageous conspiracy theories" (to quote one famous conspiracy theorist) in an pathetic attempt to silence the man.

Good entertainment!

NEW AGE RAGE (4): DAVID ICKE, THE LIZARDS AND THE JEWS

NEW AGE RAGE (4): DAVID ICKE, THE LIZARDS AND THE JEWS
BABYLON OBSERVER VIDEO REVIEW


WWW, February 2009 -?In this documentary soaked in humor, we meet well-known author and lecturer David Icke and his opponents during some rather hilarious events.


Meet David Icke, well-known author and lecturer based in the UK. In the 1980's, he was a presenter of sport news at the BBC until he found himself in the middle of some mystical New Age experience which put an end to his career. When he subsequently went on the popular "Wogan" talk show claiming he was the "son of God", David Icke became a popular subject of jokes.

David Icke subsequently developed his New Age experience with a rather extensive research into Mystery Babylon which led him to come to remarkable conclusions.?

He was able to trace back the bloodlines of the ruling elite to the times of ancient Sumeria, when Nimrod founded Babylon. David Icke met with mind control victims and African teachers who told him about the reptilian nature of this ruling elite.

When you compare David Icke's research with the teaching of old by the prophets Enoch and others, you will find that the conclusions are not so far away from each other even though there is an unbridgeable gap between the teachings of David Icke and that of the ancient prophets.

According to David Icke, the evil ones which the Bible describes as the Serpent Seed are a type of species from somewhere else in the universe that came to earth a long time ago. According to the ancient prophets, these Watchers are fallen beings that come from a different dimension.

What stands, is the fact that there is indeed a ruling elite that has a bloodline which is not human in the sense of them being descendants of Adam and Eve. This is a message that you can also read in the Bible.?

What also stands, is the fact that there are many theories concerning the Serpent Seed. Some claim that they are the black people, or the Jews, or the white people, or any other kind of people. Racist theories that want to give themselves a Christian sauce, such as the Christian Identity Movement, make a grateful use of the fact that there is not much known concerning the Serpent Seed and so they come up with all kinds of outrageous teachings.

What stands on top of that, is the fact that David Icke does hit the nail on the head on many occasions. Much to the chagrin of Mystery Babylon, he does wake up masses of people to the fact that Mystery Babylon is a reality and most people are her slaves.?

And so, the establishment does everything it can to silence David Icke.

This video is about a really pathetic way, David Icke was attacked on a visit he did in Canada. British film maker Ron Johnson accompanies the lecturer and also goes to the ones who try to stop him. And this is where things get rather funny.

We see, how people will claim that David Icke is an anti-Semite. They do so, because they say that whenever David Icke mentions "lizards", he really means "Jews". A pathetic kind of paranoia that seems to be taken seriously still by the ones who try to stop David Icke.

They call into Radio Stations and Book Shops to stop David Icke from promoting his works, and they are rather successful at start. Until the tide turns...

Enjoy a good laugh with this documentary that could only be created in the UK. Ron Johnson has a great sense of humor, as he addresses rather serious topics in his own way.

ONCE UPON A TIME...

image

Dubroom Online - February 25 2009


"ONCE UPON A TIME..." (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, February 25 2009 - Three decades ago, a band was playing somewhere in the UK. The band was highly concentrated, as they performed their music. A music, very lively and heartical.

It was quite an experience, as the musicians laid the foundation for the lead and backing vocals to sing their song of praise to the Almighty One over a Reggae Riddim.

Reggae Music, Live and Direct...

It had been popularized by Bob Marley and Burning Spear, who gave the inspiration for a generation of Jamaicans in the UK to start their own bands and spread the music.

Some of them are playing until this very day, others are forgotten and they should not be.

The Sons Of JAH were one out of many of such bands.
