about

Tubby's Dub
It was the album King Tubby meets Rockers Uptown that altered my world. The deep bass lines and the syncopated drum groove with the “flying cymbal” aka “flyers” style created by drummer Santa Davis captivated and hooked me for life. Behind the music, I was hearing was King Tubby, one of the pioneers of dub who helped propel it into the musical consciousness of people worldwide so today I pay tribute to the dub master and Santa Davis’ “flying cymbal” style.

Scratch's Dub (A nod to Lee Perry)
The bridge between rocksteady and roots began in the late 60s into the new decade of the 70s and with it, the sounds, tempo, and styles evolved into the next phase which would become roots reggae. Still, in between, there was a short period of time where the music and lyrics straddled the past and the future. Lee' Scratch" Perry was at the forefront of this change and played an essential role in developing new sounds, ways to utilize sound fx, and production styles.
