With recordings dating back to the 1974-1978 period, Universal Dub collects a series of takes at the influential Randy's and Channel One studios in Jamaica, then later mixed at King Tubby's studio. The tapes at in the closet for more than a decade, when Morris White made a deal Zola & Zola Records for a mid-1990s release. The project is credited to dub masters King Tubby, Scientist, Bunny Tom Tom, and Barnabas. The album is a showcase of late-1970s Jamaican dub production: deep basslines, stripped-down rhythms, heavy echo and spring reverb, with the mixing desk treated as an instrument. Much of the material features elite session musicians including Robbie Shakespeare, Lloyd Parks, Sly Dunbar, Carlton Barrett, Augustus Pablo, Ansel Collins, and Earl "Chinna" Smith. The compilation is quite interesting because it captures several generations of King Tubby mixing tradition all together. King Tubby pioneered dub's spatial mixing techniques in the 1970s, while Scientist emerged as one of Tubby's most famous protégés in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Bunny Tom Tom and Barnabas were also key engineers in Kingston studios during the roots and early dancehall period. The sound is generally raw, spacious, and rhythm-driven rather than polished -- closer to classic sound-system dub than later digital productions. Fans of albums like Scientist Meets the Space Invaders or King Tubby's Meets Scientist -- In a World of Dub will recognize the same cavernous echo, militant drum patterns and constantly shifting instrumental emphasis.

"Featuring Youth (Martin Glover), Gaudi, the late Lee 'Scratch' Perry, Kermit Leveridge (Black Grape), Don Letts, Dan Morrell and Planetman, the record blends dub, ambient textures, spoken word and ritual chant into a meditation on trees as cultural, spiritual and ecological anchors. The album's 'Vision Tree' artwork was originally created by Jamie Reid in the 1990s and revisited for this project, one of his final creative works. Courtesy of the Jamie Reid Estate and John Marchant Gallery, the image anchors the project in a lineage of British countercultural art, extending CHANT's environmental ethos into visual form. CHANT was formed by environmentalist Dan Morrell and producer Youth as a creative extension of Morrell's long-standing tree-planting initiatives. Released via new eco-label Balance Recordings, a proportion of funds from Relics of Tree Worship (In Dub) will support tree-planting initiatives, including projects located at the Bob Marley Mausoleum in Nine Mile, Jamaica -- linking recorded sound directly to living landscape and reggae's spiritual homeland. As a dub record, Relics of Tree Worship (In Dub) uses repetition, low-frequency depth and space as a form of meditation. Youth and Gaudi's production balances analogue warmth with expansive sound design, while contributions across the album bring history, myth and contemporary environmental urgency into dialogue. The project also marks one of the final creative appearances of Lee 'Scratch' Perry, whose legacy of sonic experimentation and spiritual subversion resonates throughout."

Now the time is right for the music to be made available to all dub addicts and music lovers.

Red color vinyl. After falling out with Sir Coxsone, the legendary head of the Kingston label Studio One, Lee Perry first founded his own band and then, in 1973, set up his own studio in his backyard. What was born out of necessity developed into a unique success story. With both the Upsetters and the Black Ark, Perry made music history -- most notably with the 1976 release of the album Super Ape, on which he made the genre of dub bubble and boil from the mixing desk in previously unheard ways. For Perry, the studio is like a living organism. Whether he truly experiences it that way or simply lets too much ganja go up in smoke, for Perry the equipment is organic, empathetic, and intelligent. The catch is that the results sound exactly like that as well. Long before sampling was invented, he layered tracks of deep basslines, echoes, and reverb with various self-recorded sound sequences -- often played in reverse -- on top of, into, and beneath each other. In other words, Perry was the first producer who made the music instead of the band. Among other things, this earned him the title "Salvador Dali of Dub."

"Jamaican singer born in Clarendon, Jamaica on June 27, 1956. At age seven, he started singing backup for a local ska harmony duo called The Clarendonians and did his first recordings aged 10 years with the name 'Little Freddie' or 'Young Freddie,' and as a duo with Ernest Wilson aka 'Freddie & Fitsy.' McGregor stayed at Studio One for much of the '70s. He sang lead for groups like Generation Gap and Soul Syndicate, and also recorded off and on as a solo act during the '70s. In 1975, McGregor converted to Rastafarianism. Freddie McGregor's debut album Mr. McGregor was released in 1979. The album opens with 'We Got Love' featuring a Tower of Power influenced horn section underneath McGregor's tale of love conquering all. The classic 'Rastaman Camp' combines muted horn and an earthy, Nyahbinghi-like chorus for one of producer Niney's deeper constructions, but the lightweight fare is equally welcome as the easy strolling and not too sugary version of 'Brandy' displays. Mr. McGregor is available as a limited numbered edition of 750 copies on orange colored vinyl."
