It
was the year 1985 and lots of people thought
how DUB have had it's longest time. After
all, the flood of DUB albums from Jamaica
was no longer a flood.
They were wrong and they could have known
if they would have been looking to the UK
and more specifically, to the Ariwa
Studio's!
Neil Fraser sat in his studio. He was
working on allready the fifth episode of his
-now classic- DUB ME CRAZY series. One DUB
Album after other was released, and people
could hear -or I should say: experience- how
just about every new kind technology was
used to create some of the weirdest DUB you
could not even think of.
Like a true Mad Professor, his obvious
genius goes together with an equally obvious
"madness". His works are from a
lonely quality, that is to say: simply
unmatched. The more you listen, the more you
hear just what he was actually able to do in
a time wherein most people thought of
computers and digital technology as
something threatening.
No, it's not for nothing that the Dubroom
has such an enormous attention for the DUB
albums of Neil Fraser, a.k.a. the Mad
Professor. He knows The Secret Of The Master
Tape!
