“Jazz and Dub are unison foundation from my perspective.
To prove it I can just make a small list of the artists I can call dub jazz masters: Sly & Robbie Meets Nils Petter Molvaer + Eivind Aarset & Vladislav Delay, Nick Page’s Dub Colossus, Jamie Saft’s New Zion Trio, Hamid Drake & Bindu, Bill Laswell who remixed Bob Marley and Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock who covered Marley, Dennis Bovell who produced The Pop Group and Fela Kuti, Jah Wobble and Invaders of the Heart and Jamaican legends like Monty Alexander and Ernest Ranglin.
I must give a shout out to Dub Jazz Fusion innovators like Salmonella Dub, Mei Tei Sho, Fat Freddy’s Drop, Sons of Kemet, Nubiyan Twist, Joe Armon-Jones and American trumpeter Theo Crooker who put out records with Chronixx and Wyclef Jean.
I feel so blessed to add a dub jazz release to our catalog with the help of these amazing friends: Marius Costache, Gordon Wedderburn, DJ Isuru and Shabbos Ranks.
More dub, more jazz!”
