Dub was born in Jamaica in the late 1960s, when sound engineers and producers began re-working reggae tracks into instrumental versions. This musical laboratory transformed the role of the studio into a true instrument, playing on echo, reverberation, and sound effects.
Pioneers like King Tubby, Lee "Scratch" Perry and Augustus Pablo paved the way, subsequently influencing entire generations of musicians, from reggae to electro. Later, collectives like Zion Train and High Tone extended this legacy internationally, giving dub a new and contemporary resonance.
Each dub vinyl record is an immersive experience: a dive into enveloping soundscapes where bass and drums dictate the tempo. These records invite us to a listening experience that is both physical and meditative. Let's relive the evolution of a genre that pushed the boundaries of musical production.
