Out of print for over 10 years, ‘Studio One Dub Vol.2’ brings together some of the finest dubs from the legendary Studio One Records, Kingston, Jamaica. Dub music was the creation of a generation of brilliant recording studio engineers in Jamaica.
Most of the original Studio One dub albums released during the 1970s were mixed by ‘Sir Coxsone’ Dodd himself, using the moniker ‘Dub Specialist’, although many talented engineers worked the board at the Brentford Road studio over the years (including Sylvan Morris, Syd Bucknor and Overton ‘Scientist’ Brown). Throughout the 1970s, these mixes became more sophisticated and atmospheric. The cuts here demonstrate that Studio One’s contribution to the innovative musical form of dub was substantial and go straight to the head of listeners who feel that the only centres for dub were studios such as King Tubby’s, Lee Perry’s Black Ark, Channel One, or Joe Gibbs’s.
The tracks on this compilation are taken from this period in the 1970s when dub was the cutting-edge of Jamaican music studio production. Most of them are the dub version flipsides of rare Jamaican 45s.
Sleevenotes are by Michael E. Veal, celebrated author of ‘Dub: Soundscapes’ and ‘Shattered Songs in Jamaican Reggae’.
