DJ SHORTCUT- BLUNTED WITH A BEAT JUNKIE - KING TUBBY'S DUB EXPLOSION


King Tubby is famed Jamaican recording engineer that shaped the sound of Dub music. He is credited for "inventing the remix" .King Tubby's production work in the 1970s would see him become one of the best-known celebrities in Jamaica, and would generate interest in his production techniques from musicians across the world. Tubby built on his considerable knowledge of electronics to repair, adapt and design his own studio equipment, which made use of a combination of old devices and new technologies to produce a studio capable of the precise, atmospheric sounds which would become Tubby's trademark. With a variety of effects units connected to his mixer, Tubby was able to 'play' the mixing desk like an instrument, bringing instruments and vocals in and out of the mix (literally 'dubbing' them) to create an entirely new genre known as dub music.DJ ShortCut of the Beat Junkies put together this mix of his best work. This is music to burn too.
