Performer Notes

A collaboration between dub mixmaster/studio whiz King Tubby and dancehall tough Jah Screw, Dangerous Dub is a ten-track collection of some of the heaviest roots dub around. The two spent nights mixing tracks in King Tubby's studio located in the perilous, crime-rife ghetto of West Kingston -- hence the name Dangerous Dub. Pounding, mind-blowing basslines and supple guitar tracks are provided by studio mainstays Flabba Holt and Bingy Bunny, both of whom appear on countless reggae and dub recordings. They provide a nice balance to the rat-a-tat ratcheting sounds King Tubby is famous for. The best cut by far is "Hungry Belly Dub," a remake of the classic reggae standard "Bandulo." Also featuring the track "London Bridge Special," Dangerous Dub is a great introduction to dub at its finest. ~ Matthew Hilburn

Professional Reviews

Muzik (1/97, p.116) - 3.5 out of 5 - "...The unruly basslines and sparse rhythms that characterise each track may be too heavy for most dub virgins, but it remains a gem....further credence to King Tubby's reputation as Don of the mixing boards..."

NME (Magazine) (6/9/01, p.39) - 8 out of 10 - "...It may seem a little bland but get stoned. It improves loads..."
