The Ramones were punks before punk rock was even invented. With their catchy, sing-along tunes, iconic hair styles and outfits, Joey, Dee Dee, Johnny and Tommy rewrote rock history and are now, as part of the first wave of US punk, firmly considered part of the subcultural world heritage. In the DUB-cultural world, on the other hand, their footprint has been pretty slim, particularly if one considers their stomping, three-chord songs, instantly recognizable chants and laconic humor. There are a few reggae and Latin versions of their songs online, but never before have the Ramones been honored with an entire album in early reggae style -- until now. The label Echo Beach, a bit of a specialist for missions such as these, got together with André Meyer (production, bass) and Manougazou (production, guitar). Also back in the team is keyboarder and DubXanne mastermind Guido Craveiro, who plays Hammond organ and piano on half of the tracks. The other two additions to the core team are singer and all-round instrumentalist Sebastian Sturm and drummer Raul Pfeffer. Together they homed in on some of the most iconic Ramones three-minute-singalongs, including "Blitzkrieg Bop", "I Wanna Be Sedated", "Pet Sematary" and "Rock'n'Roll Highschool", and treated them to a reggae make-over. From up-and-coming youngsters to living legends, everyone is included, albeit with a focus on the elder statemen and stateswomen: the vast majority of the guests are over 60 and look back on deeply impressive careers! The artists come from Jamaica, the USA, the UK and Germany. All contributed one or two songs, and all of them tackle the songs in pairs with infectiously good humor, transforming legendary punk rock bangers into unpredictable dub tracks. It almost goes without saying that the lyrics have been adapted to everyday Jamaican life with a great deal of fun and creativity.

LP version. When dub and dope beats entered into an open relationship in the mid-nineties and created a casual hybrid with trip hop, Jean-Yves Prieur aka Kid Loco was one of the first French people to be there. With singles like "She's My Lover" and "Love Me Sweet" and the album A Grand Love Story, the producer proved himself to be a loverman indeed, with a knack for bedroom moods, charming little melodies and a comforting balance between minimalism and lush arrangements. As a keyboard all-rounder, Guillaume Méténier aka Soul Sugar has been featured on numerous Kid Loco productions for more than twenty years. From the synthesizer to the clavinet, from the Fender Rhodes to the Leslie organ, the "Funky Frenchman" is no stranger to any keyboard instrument. The Hamburg label Echo Beach, which has already issued dub commissions for a number of pop and new wave classics, thought it was time to change that.

There is a dub series that has been causing a sensation for years, and has been since the release of King Size Dub 1 in 1994. In the series there were always trips to obscure counting (Vol. 69) and specials about certain regions (Dub In Germany), labels (ON-U Sound Records from London) or bands (Dubmatix from Toronto). It's wonderful that with KSD 23, another compilation in the series presents dub as a multi-layered art of sound mixing. In this edition, there is a spectacular focus on cover versions of very famous songs like "Cocaine" (JJ Cale), "Personal Jesus" (Depeche Mode), "Master Blaster" (Stevie Wonder), "Blue Monday" (New Order), "Guns Of Brixtion" (The Clash), "The Robots" (Kraftwerk), and so on.

David Bowie polymath, Briton, chameleon, duke, enigma ... the list could go on until Z for Ziggy. David Bowie morphed from folkie to space popper, from West Berlin myth to chic regular at Studio 54, from pop star to actor to art connoisseur. But although the Thin White Duke repeatedly drank from the cup of black music history, no proper Bowie dub mix (in the Jamaican sense) survives -- and certainly not a complete album-length dub set. Producer Lee Groves and the longest-serving German dub label Echo Beach, specialists for cases like this, were unanimous: something needed to be done! Thanks to a worldwide network of musicians and studio whizzes, versions of legendary songs including by The Police, Grace Jones, Martha & The Muffins, Ton Steine Scherben, and most recently, Robert Palmer, have been created here. Dubby Stardust is another milestone in Echo Beach's dub cycle catalog and a long overdue tribute to the pop chameleon who died in 2016 -- a compilation that draws on the collective memory of three generations of fans. Features James Riley, Benedict, Joseph Holiday, Vinyl Sky, Baby Alpaca, Jasmine Ash, Tom Rhodes, and Zachary Kibbee.

New wave and dub reggae are two children of the same generation, separated at birth, and yet now united in triumph: 15 years after his Echo Beach tribute to British pop pioneers The Police, Dubxanne returns to the roots and infects ten classics of the new wave, post-punk and synth-pop era with the dub-reggae virus. It was the worst of times, it was the best of times. It was... the eighties. Whether Gothic or New Romantic, everyone was fascinated by the possibilities offered by synths and drum machines. One warmed to the unheard-of clarity of the songs that became the anthems of a generation: "Fade to Grey", "Running up that Hill", "Video Killed The Radiostar", "Heart of Glass", some sung by amazingly feminine boys or novel, self-confident pop divas like Kate Bush, Debbie Harry, and Cindy Lauper. At the same time, reggae music is conquering the world from Jamaica, and in the wake of it a revolutionary production practice: dub. Analog at first, but also increasingly digital over the years. The album is the latest in a loose series of dub sets, with which Echo Beach pays a dubwise tribute to the defining sounds of the '80s. Features Berise & Tracy Merano, Sara Lugo, Toogah, Denham, Claire Parsons, and Querbeat. CD version contains six bonus tracks.

Red vinyl version. Originally released on CD only in 2008, this album has been in constant demand and has already seen a number of vinyl reissues. At the beginning of the 1980s, The Police were among the biggest acts on the planet, and their reunion tour in 2007 filled halls and stadiums worldwide. Like hardly any other pop band, the trio profited from influences of African and especially Jamaican music. Songs like "So Lonely" and "My Bed's Too Big Without You" would be nothing without Sting's bass foundation carpentered parallel to the vocals, and "Walking On The Moon" is probably one of the few reggae-killer bass lines that originated outside Jamaica. Time for an appreciation of a special kind: DubXanne is probably the first dub showcase based entirely on Police riddims. The album was recorded by Okada, the backing band of reggae artist Zoe, and many guests like Earl 16, Rankin Rogers, Eased (Seeed), and poet Benjamin Zephaniah. The result is saturated bass, a dynamic, repetitive steady beat, sound system atmosphere and above all: synchronicity -- a feedback of The Police's abstracted reggae elements with their Jamaican roots.

The sound company operating under the project name Noiseshaper is poised to release a very special vinyl album into record shops worldwide. The band received great acclaim for their first albums, which were released on the legendary and famous Rockers Hifi label Different Drummer. They later became celebrated for their musical contribution to the US television series CSI - Miami! The Viennese coffee table boys Axel Hirn and Florian Fleischmann achieved cult status with their 12" single The Only Redeemer, which was later released in the US by Quango (Island Records/Palm Pictures) and fast became a permanent fixture on the playlists of the best and most popular DJs in Berlin, Vienna, Tokyo, Paris, London, and New York. The next dancefloor filler followed with "All A Dem A Do", sung by Juggla, which was the band's first release to get heavy rotation on many European and US radio stations. Next up were remixes by and for heavyweights such as Sly & Robbie, Outkast, Seven Dub, and Carl Douglas. Noiseshaper's defining sound has been distilled and condensed an utterly distinctive blend of "house-y downbeats with a fat reggae flavor" has brought the Noiseshaper's international acclaim and popularity. The very special vinyl release is the essential of what Noiseshaper has ever done all over the years with a special focus on heavy bass remixes by Adrian Sherwood and Paolo Baldini. It is another very impressive display of how a musical style has progressed. Dub as a style with all its reference points between commerce and innovation! Eight pounding dub flavor tunes all are best for bringing the dancefloors of the dub universe to boiling point. Heavy bass for heavy dancing!

LP version. L.A.B return with a brand-new remix album L.A.B In Dub. The ten-track album features an array of dubbed-out L.A.B remixes by Italian producer and remixer Paolo Baldini DubFiles. This collection of tracks has been lovingly crafted by Baldini at his Alambic Conspiracy Studio in San Foca, Italy. Each dub has been created live in the studio, with Baldini working live on the stems of each track. These new versions are all created in one take with no overdubs or edits, creating entirely new versions. With the tracks hand-picked from L.A.B's catalog, L.A.B In Dub see's Baldini bring a new light with his dubbed-out versions. Combining a range of L.A.B's eclectic sounds including funk-inspired tune "Fashion Dread" and reggae-pop fan favorite "Why Oh Why", the album sees Baldini bring his signature dub-filtered sound, approaching each track with his analog techniques inspired by Jamaican pioneers King Tubby and Scientist. Following on from multiple number one singles and albums, alongside a growing list of platinum sales and awards across New Zealand and Australia, this is the band's first ever full-length remix album in collaboration with Loop and European dub-focused label Echo Beach.
More on L.A.B: L.A.B's groove blends an eclectic mix of reggae, electronic, blues, funk, and rock -- all combining to create a sound entirely their own. L.A.B made their name on the live stages of Australasia and were recently publicly-voted as Radio New Zealand's Best Live Act. L.A.B have become a mainstay in the NZ Music Charts and on the festival circuit, performing at every major festival across NZ, plus marquee slots at the Byron Bay Bluesfest and WOMADelaide. A summer run of sold-out stadium and greenfield shows from January to April 2022 saw them perform to over 70,000 people in Australia and New Zealand and take out fourth spot in Pollstar's top Australasian acts for 2021/2022. 2021 saw L.A.B win Best Group, Best Album and Best Single at the New Zealand Music Awards, named as the most-played NZ act on NZ radio. After releasing five albums in five years, the band have cemented themselves on the NZ charts, with "In The Air" and "Why Oh Why" both reaching number one and remaining in the charts for over three years. Their accomplishments include all five albums reaching platinum status, alongside ten platinum singles and 13 gold singles. The biggest of these include "Why Oh Why" (three-times-Platinum), "Controller" (six-times-Platinum), and "In The Air" (eight-times-Platinum in NZ and Gold in Australia).

L.A.B return with a brand-new remix album L.A.B In Dub. The ten-track album features an array of dubbed-out L.A.B remixes by Italian producer and remixer Paolo Baldini DubFiles. This collection of tracks has been lovingly crafted by Baldini at his Alambic Conspiracy Studio in San Foca, Italy. Each dub has been created live in the studio, with Baldini working live on the stems of each track. These new versions are all created in one take with no overdubs or edits, creating entirely new versions.
