Dub Meltdown

Released

Bassist/producer Bill Laswell’s work has always owed a deep debt to reggae, and at certain moments in his career he has stopped to take a moment and repay that debt. Here he does so by teaming up with legendary reggae drummer Lincoln “Style” Scott (Roots Radics, Dub Syndicate) to create a dark, claustrophobic, and deeply dread collection of organic dub tunes. The structural skeleton here is traditional reggae, but Laswell and Scott take the mixes off into outer space – or, at times, into a haunted house.
