Brain Damage meets Vibronics
"Empire soldiers"

Vibronics & Brain Damage teamed up and decided to come together around a concept, a narrative inspiration that will undoubtedly surprise: Anglo-Caribbean and Franco-African soldiers’ experience during the first world war. 
The academic historian, poet & songwriter, Madu Messenger, uses the product of years of study and research, to develop, within that very framework, a series of texts on some key topics such as travel, friendship, war and death. This project thus aims at offering a learning experience about this often little-known period of our history. 
It will draw troubling parallels with some more contemporary considerations on culture shocks, immigration, imperial powers and horrors of war that still affects all of us today. Following their reflection on this sensitive issue, the musicians of the project’s – all of many other origins, Anglo-French, Jamaican or Asian – move towards a cultural alignment, opposite to certain enslaving and communitarian models. 


SUFFERATION  w/PARVEZ


Sufferation we don’t need no more in Babylon

As Britain she stood with her back up against wall
The sons of old India came and would battle and fall.
In there thousands they went off to fight 
for duty they offered their lives
And many would never survive
like a mill grinding corn 
Many thousands now lost
Many thousands now gone
They suffered the pain, mental strain
As bombs fall like the monsoon rain
As brothers they stood side by side
A thin brown line sent to stem up the tide

Sufferation we don’t need no more in Babylon

In this time of the islamophobe
It’s a half that’a seldom is told
With the death in the mud and cold
They showed bravery, were steadfast and bold
Fighting for Europe to be free
But little is written down in history

Sufferation we don’t need no more in Babylon

MBLP013/Pranayama - LEYLO/01.Leylo - Kaya Time

Extracted from the album « Walk the Walk »
October 16th 2015 • Jarring Effects
Recorded, for the voices, at legendary Harry J Studio
in Kingston, Jamaica.
Featuring Horace Andy, Willi Williams, Winston McAnuff, Kiddus I & Ras Michael.


At the controls of the Brain Damage project since 1999, and through a rich discography of more than 10 albums, Martin Nathan already explored my facets of his favorite style: the dub. After having contributed to settle its Brain Damage foundations in France, he remains consistently involved in its evolution, suggesting various versions, alternatively urban, atmospheric, experimental, and recently way closer to some models developed in the UK.

This time, that’s in Kingston that he realizes the main part of this new opus, to delve more deeply into the dub origins. His friendship with Samuel Clayton Jr, sound engineer and internationally respected producer (Steel Pulse / Toots & the Maytals) was decisive in the choice of this destination. This essential figure in Jamaica indeed opens the doors of the mythical Harry J Studio (Bob Marley / Burning Spear) to Brain Damage, and enables improbable connections with legendary artists for unforgettable studio sessions.

The initial idea of the project was to involve certain actors of this famous generation that contributed in the 1960s / 70s to create what reggae is, and by extension, the dub. Five veterans of the genre line then up behind Jamaicathe microphone, all contemporaries, but with totally diverse sensibilities and backgrounds. Nowadays still superstar for some of them like Horace Andy whose tone is recognizable miles away, and who is used to collaborate with Massive Attack, kind of forgotten for some others like Kiddus I that yet was, in 1978, the hero if a key scene in the cult film « Rockers », all of them have kept their talents unimpaired. This being the case of Willi Williams, author of the timeless hit « Armagideon Time », covered by The Clash as so many others did, but also of Winston Mc Anuff who Harry J Studio Sessionsnever ceases to amaze us by collaborating with French artists in a marked contrast to reggae vibes (Camille Bazbaz, Fixi, Java). Lastly, the dean Ras Michael, which was for so many years one of the ambassadors of Nyabinghi traditions on an international scale, continues to blow us away by his vocal interventions imbued with so much spirituality, and by this unique style of percussion-playing.

For the span of one studio session, all of them succeed in blending into the musical universe suggested by Brain Damage, and undertake the stylistic exercise submitted by the artist: writing most of their lyrics on the theme of their childhood, the childhood, youth and education. The outcome of these meetings is unique, a singular combination of maturity and genuineness, doubtless resulting from the open-mindedness and talents of each protagonist.

Brain Damage
«¡Ya no mas!»
(Jarring Effects/ L’autre distribution)

On Frédéric Péguillan's initiative, Brain Damage performs for the first time in Colombia, within Télérama Dub Festival in 2016. Over there, the encounter with Gatos Negros was decisive. For years, with unflinching dedication of Macky Ruff and La Gaitana, supported by budding or legendary artists, as well as by many socio- cultural coordinators, the collective has been engaged every day in some overlooked districts of Bogotá, towards deprived youths, representing the majority of the population. A common creation was immediately on the table, and fruitful studio sessions spontaneously popped with some of the most atypical artists of the city.
One year later, supported by Jarring Effects label this time, Martin Nathan returns to Bogotà within ‘France-Colombia Year’, with firm intention to bring the project to completion, far from the glitz, accompanied by Romain Etienne — photographer from Lyon-based Item Collective — for an original and subtle illustration of the adventure. New meetings happened during marathon studio sessions, to complete a dream team casting.
Pioneers like Javier Alerta Kamarada or Kontent Thug — who respectively first brought reggae and hip-hop in Colombia in the nineties —, and Jimena Angel — pop icon with a world-class voice, keen on traditional songs —, take turns in the recording booth, alongside with Macky Ruff and La Gaitana, themselves, for militant anthems. Numerous musicians also took part in the sessions : percussionists, trombonist, flautists, harp and marimba players, featuring an ancestral knowledge and a cultural diversity, characteristic of the country.
With this raw material, Martin Nathan returned to his own studio to finalize the project, prompting it into an unexpected direction, as he is used to, at odds with reggae and dub scene current trends that are crushed by UK influences, but also million miles away from electro-cumbia clichés flourishing here and there since a few years.
Yes. A new Brain Damage album is indeed what it is all about : the 14th, never really where expected, always swimming against the tide. Falsely lo-fi latin ballads, unlikely fusions between digital techniques and centuries-old traditions, polished aesthetics to highlight raw texts and incisive lyrics : all the ingredients are there for a new alien album, unique, telling about the constrast between the cultural treasures of a country and its everyday life harshness.

MBLP043/Da Inner Journey – Dawood Sound System
Available on https://www.mareebass.fr/dawood

Le Dawood Sound System, actuellement basé vers Poitiers est composé de 4 potes ayant entamé leur aventure commune il y a 5 ans.
Le projet a débuté avec très peu d'enceintes, mais dès le départ, ils avaient à coeur de partager leurs propres productions durant les soirées qu'ils organisaient, accompagnés de leur chanteur, Mc Mondoshawan, également producteur et depuis peu un trompettiste a rejoint l’aventure. Dawood, de par le dynamisme et la motivation de ses troupes a su attirer tout types d'individus dans leur univers autour de la musique dub mais pas seulement. Leurs événements sont ouverts à d'autres styles et cultures, rassemblant un public toujours plus large, amateurs de bonnes musiques.
 Leur Sound System a beaucoup évolué et ils possèdent aujourd'hui 4 scoops. Ils se baladent avec celui ci tant en ville que dans les campagnes profondes pour diffuser leur musique et leur énergie.
Ils sont influencés par de nombreux styles de musique, allant du reggae, du roots, au stepper Uk et français, ainsi que par le hip hop, la musique électronique, les musiques traditionnelles d'ici et d'ailleurs dont ils s'inspirent pour leurs productions.
Depuis la sortie du premier EP « Da First Sample » les dates se sont enchaînés ainsi que les nouvelles productions ! Ce deuxième projet « Da Inner Journey » marque une nouvelle étape dans la vie du collectif qui continue d’évoluer et de s’affirmer dans son propre style. Tout comme le premier, deux remixs de dubmakers ami du crew sont présents sur cette album.
……………………………………………………

The Dawood Sound System, currently based around Poitiers (France) is composed of 4 friends who started their common adventure more than 3 years ago.
The project began with very few speakers, but from the start, they wanted to share their own productions during the dances they organized, accompanied by their singer, Mc Mondoshawan, also producer, a trumpettist also joined the adventure recently. Dawood, thank's the dynamism and motivation of his troops, has attracted all kind of people in their world, around dub music but not only. Their events are open to other styles and cultures, bringing together an ever wider audience, lovers of good music.
Their Sound System has evolved a lot and they now own 4 scoops. They travel with this one both in town and in the deep countryside to spread their music and energy.
They are influenced by many styles of music, from reggae and roots to UK and French stepper, as well as hip hop, electronic music, traditional music from here and there, which they use as inspiration for their productions.
Since the release of the first EP "Da First Sample" the crew played in a lot of gigs with or without the sound system, always producing new tracks to share in the danse. This second opus "Da Inner Journey" marks a new stage in the life of the collective which continues to evolve and assert itself in its own style. Like in the first EP « Da First Sample », two remixes of dubmakers friend of the crew were made for this album.

D'abord DJ, régisseur de spectacle puis jeune producer ayant toujours gravité autour du monde de l'art et de la culture, Redwood est fou de musique depuis son plus jeune âge. 
Tombé dans le chaudron magique de la Dub Culture depuis une dizaine d’année, c’est un réel aboutissement que de proposer un album complet avec la complicité de Marée BASS. 

High Life Forever !
