Mad Professor, it can not be said enough, is one
of the most creative and innovative DUB engineers,
and he is so for decades in a row. His Ariwa
Studio may have released a lot of crucial vocal
singles and albums, but unlike many Jamaican
Studio's in the 1980's, Ariwa never lost interest
in DUB.
The DUB Me Crazy series definitely set the
standard for DUB through-out the 1980's. It
started in 1982 with this release. There are some
serious DUB mixes on the album, which originally
just contained 10 tracks due to the limitations on
vinyl. This release has two bonus tracks, for some
extra enjoyment. DUB Enjoyment to the max.
Mad Professor's superb DUB transformation of
the excellent vocal parts which pop in throughout
the entire album will take you into another Sound
Dimension. The crucial work by the drummer and
bass player are often the only points of reference
as each and every effect device is utilized to the
max.
The more you listen, the more you hear, the
album will catch you and then grow on you: some
might call it "crazy"...
