Mad Professor is obviously one of the masters.
It's not just, that he has a superb sound, it's
also that he knows how to literally transform that
sound by taking instruments and adding effects. It
sounds so easy, but in fact it's not.
DUB engineers play with the dimension called
time. Echo's, for example, have their own rhythm
and that little piece of knowledge theoretically
enables the man behind the mixing board to change
the rhythm of a tune.
It needs to be said: for those who are
interested in the production of DUB, each and
every DUB album by the Mad Professor simply is a
Master Class in the Art and that is a thing you
definitely feel if you are just interested in
enjoying the music.
Too technical? It doesn't matter. After all,
the result is what counts.
In this case, the result is a collection of 12
riddims, in various speeds and styles, mixed in a
wide variety of styles. Sometimes the mix goes
subtle, only to be "disturbed" by a
cutting razor style effect. In other instances
filters are applied where no engineer dares to
apply them.
This Master Class in DUB is definitely not for
producer's ears only, it's an experience that will
make the heart and soul of every true lover of DUB
rejoice 12 more times.
