dubby

I did grew a little tired of jazzy-go-lucky shows which i always do and go for a little something different this time. Since summer is here and we’d spent the previous weekend watching Rockers and trying to sound Jamaican, i started things off with a little dub-ska-reggae icing from Skatalites & King dubby, Leroy “Horsemouth” Wallace who’s also the star of the movie.

Ok now this is some serious shit! Some ppl prefer 2 call this dubstep but this really is something else!. Does not matter if you are into ambient, electronica, dub or dubstep – it has all the right and best elements of all these genres. This is easily one of the best albums i’ve heard in 2006! The music itself has an absolute beauty, very simple and inspirational, makes you wonder about many things. It is so deep that u may drown in the sound or float with it.

From what I remember Uusitalo’s previous efforts, were more dub fused filtered electronic stuff, this time I think he’s polished the sound a little bit and took the rhythmic elements up front as opposed to the textural reverby sound, more dancable stuff with hard kicks and synths. It’s not as experimental as AGF/Dlay stuff, or as bubblegum pop as Luomo stuff, something in between.
