DUBBING SUN Schallplatten & CDs

Review: Scrupulously heavy and skanky Netherlands dub comes swanging our way from Bukkha, in collaboration with Dubbing Sun and Donovan Kingjay. 'Whip Dem' hears the Jamaican-American producer's dubwise productions meet fellow artists from Austria and South East London respectively; Kingjay's vocals deliver a powerful message of justice and liberation over a deep, clean steppers' riddim. Meanwhile, the B-side features Frenk Dublin's EchoSpace remix, which while adding more delay to the original, detracts nothing from its timely sense of space and weight.

Review: We write this a day after 4/20 so it is almost perfect timing for the latest Moonshine Recordings 7" to drop with such lovey artwork and stoner sounds. It's a joint production effort between Radikal Guru & Dubbing Sun with Cheshire Cat toasting over the top about his love of the green stuff. The production is a mix of dub, raga and reggae with clean digital pianos and fat, textured bass. The punchy riddim is one to get any sound system crowd going, and then on the flip it's paired back to a slower, more seductive sound. A fine pick up for any pot and dub heads.
