This is a special release no doubt. Deepchord, Deepnaut, Pulshar and Braulio Lam were specifically chosen to head up this treasured task of taking Linval's 'World Crisis' into their realms.

'World Crisis' is Linval's message and it is as definitive as ever. The overall traditional dub concept is to feature different voices over the same instrumental where this, flips the script and each version has a different electronic music producer add their talents to create their own signature account.

The Deepnaut version shimmers in a euphoric glow that covers you like a sun on the beach in summer. Linval's voice is front and center and one could say this may be the most single oriented as it uses the most vocals of any of the renditions here.

Braulio Lam's submission has all the makings of a classic styled dub track. While the beat is transcendent, everything else is processed in a new school way. And the technique is next level to be clear.

Next is Deepchord's version. To say this is the deepest and most techno might not be much of a surprise. The groove is addictive and the chords sampled into the rhythm while the melody ebbs and flows are pure magic.

Lastly, Pulshar breaks things down to the starkest of the choices and one of the most hypnotic. Pablo Bolivar and Sergio Sainz Vidal from Pulshar have a knack for injecting some dark and deep island vibes to the electronic scene.

The artwork respects the history of dub culture while advancing the application as it uses AI generated images combined with human elements.

Dublicator - Burning Echoes (Pulshar Remake)

“The relationship between Pulshar and Rod Modell goes back to 2008, when Echospace (Rod & Stephen Hitchell) remixed Nospheratu, a track included in the album Brotherhood (Phonobox, 2008).

This release would go on to foster a friendship that went beyond just music. When Rod travelled to Barcelona, he’d always catch up with Pablo and Sergio to chat and walk around the Raval, making the obligatory stop in Bismilla Kebabish of Joaquín Costa. During these visits, the idea to work on more than just remixes together came up. The collaboration birthed Undercover, a conceptual EP of 5 tracks (digital release) and 3 on vinyl. One song, 5 covers.

Undercover speaks to sound’s affect on emotions. Like waves in the ocean, each unique track comes from the same source. From the strongest and most powerful waves of a storm to the quiet and gentle tides, this is forty-seven minutes of pure pleasure. The feeling of this release is abyssal, dark and very organic, and it takes you on a very special underwater journey aboard Verne´s “Nautilus.”

Finally, “Soulmakers“ and Spain again. The duo Pulshar drapes its remix in a warm dub blanket with many delays, soft strings and smoothly bouncing bass drums. The perfect conclusion to this second part of “Energetic” remixes.

"They loop in your head forever: Pulshar are back. Since 2015 the way Pablo Bolivar and Sergio Sainz Vidal aka Aphro produce their music changed , as Sergio moved to New York and Pablo is living in Barcelona. As both know each-others heartbeat supremely, the results stay even in distance as deep as before. For their latest EP “Mask” they arranged two tracks full of dark dusty sounds, haunting dub atmospheres and eerie vocals. A record, that somehow feels like their start back in 2007, when their first Mini-LP “Babylon Fall Collection” saw the light of the day to cause a global stir. And somehow the obstreperous nature of nature can be detected in their new music, too. A note, that is originated somehow in Sergio’s experiences during the devastating hurricanes in Puerto Rico in September 2017. The power of nature overwhelmed him deeply and he enrolled his emotions into a dusty flair that covers the two original tunes. He also video-taped the storms and used the footage for the video on “Abby”, the haunting main track of this release. In comparison, the second arrangement “Forever Is Not” grooves more laidback, serves a certain dense fourth-world-ambient spirit and spreads dubby conqueror notes. Besides original material, the EP brings two remixes. One by San Francisco based electronic producer Federsen, who transforms “Abby” into a dub techno tune that circles in his very own psychedelic realm. The second edit comes from Mathimidori, also known as Mathias Kaden. The German DJ and producer injects “Forever Is Not” a funky bass line, that works catchy and functions as the roots for a feverish tripping dub techno seducer. Four tunes, four galaxies. They will work heavy on any top-notch sound system. And hunt even deeper when checked via a sensible headphone."
