Granular Meets J Dubby at Echo Mountain to produce the vibrations of J dubular. The union and resulting journey is not one of ascension or descent, but about how to sonically (and scenically) navigate the terrain. J Dubby’s drums and Granular’s bass establish the foundational “riddim” of their travels as the duo takes us spelunking through caverns of reverb haunted by flocks of bats screeching ambient white noise. The splash of metallic puddles resonates in the space between our ears and drones in the ether of our mind’s eye. And just as one becomes disoriented by the soundscapes within Echo Mountain, people all over the world join hands as J Dubby’s righteous organ propels the locomotion of a “Dub Train.” In these moments of resolution we are reminded that our tour guides are not the first to traverse the crags of Echo Mountain, yet in their voyages they have found new paths through a rich tradition mapped by dub explorers.
