"MYSTERY BABYLON (171)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, November 11 2008 - A few years ago, I had an experience which taught me a lot about Babylon's enslavement mechanisms.

In fact, it was an experience in which I myself had to Step Out Of Babylon and subsequently had to "face the wrath" of those that also claimed to be against Babylon but were still working for her and not intending to change that either.

An experience, which led me to see self-proclaimed "Evangelical Christians" apply New Age rhetorics and "Reggae Fans" telling me to stop "rebelling against white society", in other words, a total con-fusion or mix-up.

Mystery Babylon at work!

It was, when I started to expose the "Gospel Reggae" Industry for what she really is: just another branch of Babylon System designed to keep the people under control of the Church and State System that she really is.

100% PABLOW ROOTS REGGAE EIGHTIES
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW



WWW, November 2008 - Singer Sugar Minott is said to be the Godfather of Rub a Dub. He is well represented in this Rub a Dub experience, together with a whole host of Reggae greats.

The 1980's marked a lot of changes for the Jamaican Music culture. As the Rockers slowed down and the studio's were able to get a fatter sound, a brand new style was born and it was called Rub a Dub style.

Today, it is both recognized as a form of early Dancehall Reggae but equally this style should not be considered as anything else but Roots Reggae.

In this Podcast, we explore especially the singers in Rub a Dub. Singers like Sugar Minott, who is said to be the godfather of the genre. Singers like Barrington Levy, Dennis Brown and Cornell Campbell.

A few Dub versions as well as a couple of DJ tracks complete a great, great excursion into some really crucial material from that time in which the studio's went from almost completely analogue to almost completely digital.

WWW, November 2008 - This Jamaican vocalist sings his conscious message on top of a cool Roots Reggae tune, everything perfectly turned into a video clip by Wayne Benjamin.

Many people inna Babylon more or less like what they are doing. At least, they think so. As around them Babylon is falling, they have to pretend that "everything is okay".

It's called "living in a lie", and Ice Block is not going to join the madness.

MYSTERY BABYLON (170)

Dubroom Online - November 10, 2008


"MYSTERY BABYLON (170)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, November 10 2008 - The "fear of man", as the phrase goes, is a very strong one. The fear of being marginalized, ridiculed or worse: outright rejected.

In a more or lesser degree, we are all under this fear.

For me, as Dubroom Webmaster, I write this in the hope that others may read, and I might think a little bit before I write down a word that I would use without problems in a private conversation.

Now, obviously, we should respect each other. But too often, under the guise of "Respect", the Truth cannot be told and the Fear of Man is cultivated.

More Tomorrow...

NICE UP
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW



WWW, November 2008 - Time to Nice it Up, starting off with Barrington Levy's Here I Come ("Broader than Broadway"): what only can follow, will. Sweet Rub a Dub and Ire Rockers, Nice Up the Dance!

Charlie Chaplin follows Barrington Levy's Here I come, and the tone is set. People dem move and groove as Charlie Chaplin explains how Reggae Music gone worldwide to give positive vibes to the people everywhere.

Positive vibes galore in this mix, which could hardly be different with a title like that. The bulk of the music is smooth Rub a Dub: the everlasting Late Night Blues riddim, for example.

Next to Rub a Dub, Nice Up also contains some Jamaican Reggae tracks produced before Rub a Dub music was born. A crucial selection that will simply do what it promises in the title.

MARK MESSAM
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW



Every now and then, the magnificent voice of this brother reminds us of Barrington Levy during his better days.

However, it would do justice to Jamaican-born Mark Messam, currently "Rhode Island's Finest", to leave at that.

This highly skilled Reggae Singer has his own style, which adds to the spectrum of pure Reggae rather than corrupting it.

MYSTERY BABYLON (169)

Dubroom Online - November 9, 2008


"MYSTERY BABYLON (169)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, November 9 2008 - When you want to Step Out Of Babylon, you will see the mechanisms she uses to keep people enslaved.

Thousands and thousands of years went into the development of a shitstem that is so complex, that the way out is very, very narrow.

It's not just the police and soldiers in their police and war economy states, not just the preachers and the presidents, not just the guru's and the shamen that keep us under bondage.

No, it's worse: Babylon has managed to make people... police each other!
