Produktbeschreibung
Dub Revolution explores the most innovative and sonically adventurous sub-genre of reggae. Dub emerged in Jamaica in the early 1970s and became a sonic art form through the work of legendary audio engineers and producers such as King Tubby, Lee 'Scratch' Perry, Prince Jammy and Scientists, leading practitioners such as Dennis Bovell, Mad Professor, and Adrian Sherwood to conjure their own dub masterworks in the UK. Adopted by punks in London and later a crucial influence on the underground dance music made on both sides of the Atlantic, the culture and legacy of dub still resonated today, reverberating from sound systems around the world and influencing production techniques in diverse genres; it's no exaggeration to say that without dub, there would be no hip-hop or house music.

The evolution of dub marks the birth of the remix and the emergence of the studio as an instrument in itself, a place where songs and their constituent parts could be pulled apart and reshaped into wild new cosmic sounds, typically disjointed and with jagged edges. Dub's progression is also inseparable from the troubled history of post-colonial Jamaica, blighted by the caustic Cold War interventions, attendant gang culture and problematic relationships with Britain and the USA. Through first-hand testimony with dub's most noteworthy creatives, David Katz's monumental forensic history of an astounding subgenre that sounds like the future five decades after its inception stands as the authoritative book on a musical artform that continues to fascinate generation after generation.
