Strictly Roots Reggae Series Vol 1 takes you back to the iconic sound of 70s roots reggae. The raw and electrifying music emanating from Jamaica that captured our imagination with artists such as Burning Spear, Marley, Abyssinians, Sly & Robbie, Agggrovators, Lee “Scratch” Perry, King Tubby - those tuff driving riddims, hypnotic bass lines, punchy horns, slightly off-kiltered pianos skanks, bubbling organs and chicken scratch guitar skanks all layered with a variety of percussion instruments that culminated to create a unique and defining style and sound.

Live instrumentation and performance: the focus for this pack is on the “human” element. There are slight imperfections, timing moments that just miss the “quantized beat”, notes that add a shade of “blue”, a little natural hiss that emanates from guitar amps and bits of noise from analog equipment - all with the aim to provide a highly usable loop pack that brings that little bit extra “something special” to any song.

Sub System Dub (Dub Pack Series)

Going deeper and even heavier, Strictly Roots Reggae Series Vol 3 continues the 70s roots reggae journey with tight, on-point live performances for each instrument. Strictly live, no midi. The human element is a key component and this pack is all about the subtle imperfections that give life, nuance, and that special vibe that can’t be found with programmed music.
INSIDE THE PACK
1GB (238 Loops / 127 One-Shots)
Live instrumentation and performance: the focus for this pack is on the “human” element. There are slight imperfections, timing moments that just miss the “quantized beat”, notes that add a shade of “blue”, a little natural hiss that emanates from guitar amps, and bits of noise from analog equipment - all with the aim to provide a more natural sound you might hear in any of the classic studios of 70s Jamaica.

Tubby's Dub
Available on Bandcamp 
https://dubmatix.bandcamp.com/album/tubbys-dub-scratchs-dub

It was the album King Tubby meets Rockers Uptown that altered my world. The deep bass lines and the syncopated drum groove with the “flying cymbal” aka “flyers” style created by drummer Santa Davis captivated and hooked me for life. Behind the music, I was hearing was King Tubby, one of the pioneers of dub who helped propel it into the musical consciousness of people worldwide so today I pay tribute to the dub master and Santa Davis’ “flying cymbal” style.

Tubby's Dub

Scratch's Dub (A nod to Lee Perry)
Available on Bandcamp 
https://dubmatix.bandcamp.com/album/tubbys-dub-scratchs-dub

The bridge between rocksteady and roots began in the late 60s into the new decade of the 70s and with it, the sounds, tempo, and styles evolved into the next phase which would become roots reggae. Still, in between, there was a short period of time where the music and lyrics straddled the past and the future. Lee' Scratch" Perry was at the forefront of this change and played an essential role in developing new sounds, ways to utilize sound fx, and production styles.

Marley's music had an immense impact on me as a youth and still resonates today Like many, he was my first introduction to reggae and since my first listen back in the 70s and 80s to now, his music does and will continue to stand the test of time and impact generations of fans and musicians alike for  the high quality of song writing and his message of harmony and peace..

The Rhythm Express        You’re Wondering Now       featuring Selena Evangeline    7Arts

http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/therhythmexpress3

Every once and awhile you come across a classic song that sticks to the inner walls of the brain like sweet candy. Such is the case for Rueben “Andy” Anderson and Joanna “Joey” Dennis’s, “I’m Wondering Now,” released on the C and N - J.A Records in 1964 as the duo, Andy & Joey with backing from one time band members of the original Skatalites – Lloyd Knibbs, drums and Nerylynn Taitt, guitar.

The song caught our attention two years back when searching for great material for the Rhythm Express and pairing songs with our front line singers; Selena Evangeline, Gavin Hope and Stacey Kay. There’s a terrific, yet brief version from the V festival in 2009 with the Specials, who recorded the song on their debut, The Specials produced by Elvis Costello in 1979. It is said, the album was a” defining moment in the UK ska scene,” and guest, Amy Winehouse, who herself recorded and released as a single in 2007.

The “Queen of Ska” Doreen Shaffer teamed with the Skatalites in 1994 and recorded on the Grammy nominated side, Hi-Bop Ska. Shaffer fought the hard battle in a male dominated genre opening the way for singers Phyllis Dillon, Dawn Penn and Hortense Ellis.

The Rhythm Express is ever evolving. In keeping with 2015 and the band’s scheduled “one single” a month concept – “You’re Wondering Now” feels like the perfect May warm up to summer - the kind of song and performance that makes rolling down the windows and welcoming a warm transitional breeze, most desirable. It’s the ceaseless groove and three part harmonies, which lingers long after the song fades.

Selena Evangeline sings this, – the harmonies and lead vocal backed by the rhythm section – Everton “Pablo” Paul drums, Jesse “Dubmatix” King bass - Shane “Shaky J” Forrest guitar, and Bill King – arranger/keyboards, Christopher Butcher of the Heavyweights Brass Band – trombone – newcomer to the Express – Rebecca Hennessy, trumpet and Bobby Hsu, alto saxophone.

We’d also like to welcome singer Michael Dunston to the collective. In the coming weeks and months Michael will be featured on several classic sides with the band.

Writer(s): Lloyd Brivett, Lester Sterling, Johnny Moore, Thomas McCook, Don Drummond, Joey, Skatalites, Roland Alphonso, Lloyd Knibb, Andy, Jerome Haynes, Donat Roy, Jackie Mittoo.

The Rhythm Express - You're Wondering Now (The Specials)

A track that has filled many a 420 playlist over the years... 

Atomic Subsonic

Blaze a Fire (ft Rasta Reuben) 4:20 time

In October 2014, Lincoln Valentine Style Scott was murdered in his house in Manchester, Jamaica. He was 58 years old. At that tim he had just finished his work on “Hard Food”, the first album released by his Dub Syndicate since “No Bed of Roses” in 2004. Dub Syndicate’s first studio album for eleven years, an event that was to be a joyous celebration with friends, has now become Style Scott’s legacy.

NOW, exactly one year after his death – the new dub scene of Europe will tribute to this legendary drummer. The trademarking song “DUB IS ALL I GOT” will appear in 14 different version and excursion as a kind of REMIX Clash. A fascinating and splending bass experience and in the very sensitive way the remixers and admirers paid tribute for is more than excellent…!

With Style Scott the reggae world, and indeed the entire world, has lost one of its best drummers. His unexpected, tragic death is devastating for his friends and family, to whom we express our deepest sympathy. At the same time, Style’s music – both sounds and lyrics – reveal that his life was rich in warmth and harmony. His death has made our lives poorer.

DEDICATED TO LINCOLN VALENTINE SCOTT.

Dubmatix is continually evolving his style, taking new influences on board on each new recording; by now it simply doesn’t do justice to the incredible breadth of his work to slap a ‘dub’ sticker on it. 

"...collaborations see him effortlessly incorporating all conceivable facets of reggae and dub with a striking self-assurance and combining them with an exceptional willingness to experiment and take new directions."

This kaleidoscope of variety is particularly in force of his upcoming brand new album. As well as working as a musician and producer, Jesse King is also a sought-after remixer and app designer, with recent remixes including tracks for the Easy Star All-Stars, John Brown's Body, Zion Train, Martha & The Muffins, Don Letts and Mungo’s HiFi. 

For his new album he spent 2 years in the past and a lot of time in tweaking the knobs on high class Roots Tunes inna crossover style…!
