2010 - Joe Gibbs - 12 Inch Reggae Discomix Showcase Vol 5

 


2010 - Joe Gibbs - 12 Inch Reggae Discomix Showcase Vol 5 @320


Volume 5 brings us into the early 80s, and it begins strongly with a series of powerful tracks. The first is Earth and Stone’s Ring Craft, its minor chords and melancholy feel set within a bass-led and thoughtful song, accompanied by a rather strange version from Snuffy and Wally. Then it’s into Su Su Pon Rasta from Naggo Morris, another strong track with its melodic melodica sad sound, again followed-up by Trinity’s take on the proceedings. Sylford Walker and Trinity’s Burn Babylon ensures that this collection begins more strongly than the preceding volumes. Junior Murvin makes a welcome appearance with Time Stiff. As on the previous volume, there are some surprises. Carl Brown’s Let the Power Fall takes us pretty much into gospel territory, while Ruddy Thomas provides a reading of Smokey Robinson’s Being with You which could have been a mistake but is saved by the great Gibbs’ rhythm charging along in the background and an excellent version from U-Black. Sammy Dread’s Deadlocks Girl (followed up with vocal contribution from Tappa Zukie) is great period reggae, tight bass and drums holding it all together. (United Reggae)

Water Damage - Repair 320

For the members of Water Damage, this is the ideal way to experience “Down on the Street.” On their latest double-album colossus, Repair, the amorphous Austin collective—whose ranks include ex-Swan gong-smasher Thor Harris, Spray Paint’s George Dishner, the Piwonka brothers from Expensive Shit, and Mari Maurice Rubio (aka more eaze), among others—devote the entire third side to “Reel 43: Down on the Street,” which isn’t so much a cover of The Stooges’ song as a live-band remix that essentially loops its main riff for 18 minutes straight. Once one of their hypnotic forays into densely layered and abrasive trance-noise takes off, it progresses until reaching transcendence—which usually doesn't take very long—and continues oscillating once they've reached that interdimensional space.


Twisted Teens - The Holy Cross Tigers 320


Twisted Teens's no-budget production; deliciously distorted riffs that suggest pawn-shop guitars with rusted strings; and a lead singer who howls like he’s nursing a killer sore throat and has run out of lozenges latest offering. On Sub Pop, from New Orleans.

2010 - Joe Gibbs - 12 Inch Reggae Discomix Showcase Vol 4




2010 - Joe Gibbs - 12 Inch Reggae Discomix Showcase Vol 4 @320

As before the tracks are all presented in complete 12” format with a listing of musicians that includes Tommy McCook, Vin Gordon, Bobby Ellis, Tony Chin and Sly and Robbie. With tracks recorded at Joe Gibbs’ studio at Retirement Crescent, Kingston, volume 4 covers the period around 1979 and 1980. The results are pretty diverse. Opening strongly with the familiar bass line of Junior Byles’ Dreadlocks Time and its intriguing version from Kojak and Liza, the next track is Hortense Ellis’ take on Ann Peebles’ I Can’t Stand the Rain, a mainstream MOR sound which is made more interesting by the addition of Prince Weedy’s Same Complaint version. Ruddy Thomas’ attempt at Michael Jackson’s Shake Your Body Down to the Ground is unusual indeed. Equally surprising is Derrick Lara’s rendition of Don’t Stop Till You Get Enough in a reggae style. This includes a particularly ill-advised rock guitar interlude, although the full 12” track is redeemed to some degree by the version from the ever-reliable Trinity. My Love/Can’t Take Mi Landlord from Wade Brammer and Lui Lepkie is a little-know but sweet reggae track, the backing rhythm and production showing off Gibbs’ production style to best effect. There are two great tracks to be found here. Dennis Brown offers Your Man, a standout track along with an old-style instrumental version which highlights Gibbs’ characteristically subtle dub sound. The collection ends with Wayne Wade’s account of the classic join-in John Holt track After You, completed of course by a joyful version from Trinity. (United Reggae)

👽 Gaudi 👽 100 Years of Theremin (The Dub Chapter) 2020 320👽


To celebrate 100 years of the Theremin, Gaudi has created an album of Theremin infused dub, with precious contribuitions by some of his friends and collaborators.

Developed in 1920 by Russian physicist Léon Theremin, the Theremin is an electronic device which works with magnetic fields and consists of one metal antenna controlled without physical contact. Predominantly a fairly niche instrument, it has featured in several styles of music since its creation, from classical works to sci-fi movie soundtracks, pop and rock.

Gaudi was supported in this tribute by five of the world's top dub producers - Mad Professor, Adrian Sherwood, The Scientist, Dennis Bovell and Prince Fatty. All hugely respected individuals who have been representing the best of international dub production for the last 50 years, they have provided the riddims that underpin Gaudi's Theremin playing on this astonishing project.

As a solo artist, Gaudi has recorded over 20 albums, while as a producer he has hundreds of productions under his belt. In his 30 year career he has worked with legends of the reggae and electronic music worlds including Steel Pulse, Lee "Scratch" Perry, Michael Rose, Horace Andy, Michael Franti, Zion Train, Maxi Priest, The Beat, Sizzla, Dub Pistols, Hollie Cook, Dub FX, Youth, The Orb, Simple Minds, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Deep Forest, Trentemøller and Lamb.

As a Theremin player for over 25 years, Gaudi has often combined his passion for the instrument and for reggae music, playing it on several of his albums, but until now he has never dedicated an entire release to it. Known and lauded for putting his "dub-take" on many musical genres, '100 Years of Theremin (The Dub Chapter)' is Gaudi's brainchild.

Listening to this blissful out-of-body-experience of an album, where roots reggae meets the enigmatic and ethereal sounds of sci-fi, is a deep and pensive experience. Haunting and mellifluous melodies meets earthy, bassy grooves in an unlikely yet undeniably successful union.

Mainliner - Dual Myths (2021) 320


Japan's Mainliner delivers intoxicating hypnosis ,dynamic energy and joyous abandon of rock tropes ,dynamic shifts into different riff patterns come subtly, a torrent of psychedelic colour haunted by ghostly vocals, that all culminates in a crashing, fuzzed out freakout end. Features two members of Acid Mothers Temple.

No Joy - Wait To Pleasure (2013) 320


The Montreal shoegaze band display far more confidence on their second album than on any of their previous releases, breaking out of the murk to offer distinct, tactile sensations in the form of glam rock stomp, slo-mo pop, desert blues, and dirty electroclash. Somehow, it all fits.

2009 - Joe Gibbs - 12 Inch Reggae Discomix Showcase Vol 3



2009 - Joe Gibbs - 12 Inch Reggae Discomix Showcase Vol 3 @320

Volume Three covers the same period as Volume two, but with more signs of where reggae would now be heading with the inclusion of ‘Virgin Girl’ by Eek A Mouse (and its lesser-heard 12” counterpart in the form of ‘Lovers Take Over’ by Lui Lepkie), signposting the digital future. There are some familiar rhythms here, for instance the loping Pass-the-Kutchie style bass on Barry Brown’s ‘Tourist Season’ but there is plenty that will be less familiar. This third volume closes with the venerable Freddie McGregor (alongside 12” collaborator Shorty the President) but the standout track is ‘Windy Day’ from Ruddy Thomas, its sharp ska-influenced brass and bass leading straight into Trinity’s dubbed-up version on the same rhythm. This has all the hallmarks of the Joe Gibbs sound: clarity, simplicity, a driving bass pattern, a lack of studio gimmickry and a sense of commitment to the music. (United Reggae)

Ze Wisenheimer - S.T. (2024) 320



Started as Zac’s solo bedroom psych-krautrock project in Melbourne, Australia, before expanding into a full trio in 2022. Abrasive post-punk blending conflicted noise, infectious beats, paranoiac repetition, melodic hooks, and tongue-in-cheek stream-of-consciousness rants.

Deaf Wish - Pain (2015) 320



On their first LP for Sub Pop, the Australian punk rockers delivers a 30-minute history lesson of the last 40 years of proto-punk, punk, and alternative rock music. Influences are early-Sonic Youth, Hüsker Dü, Stooges, Dinosaur Jr. and Replacements to name but a few.
