"Experimentalist music producer and remix mastermind Diplo teams up with Greensleeves Records to remix, reload and re-release some of Reggae’s greatest classics on Riddimentary – Diplo Selects Greensleeves. This 15-track compilation will bring selected Reggae anthems to new ears as Diplo infuses his unique genre-bending flavor into the mix. Known for his electronic dub musical styling and as one-half of world renowned production team Major Lazer, Thomas Wesley Pentz aka Diplo lends his eclectic ear and considerable talents as a Reggae selector to Riddimentary. The continuous blended mix covers over 20 years of revoluntionary Jamaican and UK hits from the top producers in Dub, Reggae and Dancehall from the 1980s and 1990s. The retro flavor and historical context of these selections shine a light on Diplo's production influences and expert knowledge of the Reggae genre. Choosing anthems such as "Night Nurse" by Gregory Isaacs, "Police In Helicopter" by John Holt, "Telephone Love" by J.C. Lodge and "Anarexol" by Eek-A-Mouse, Riddimentary sees Diplo not only selecting through the Greensleeves catalog but also placing his imprint on its legacy." GLEENSLEEVES BLOG

Ranking Dread - Ranking Dread In Dub

I've noticed in my stats area that this post is getting a few hits this week and that my old links are dead..... can't remember where I uploaded the mp3's so here's another link I found....it's got some great old skool dub effects on this one....


I bought this album for a quid at Bermondsey Market, South London over twenty years ago! Played it lots but knew very little of its origins until it got re-released this year courtesy of its original label, which is based in Stamford, Connecticut, of all places, and is run by an unusual man who goes by the name of “Silver Camel" !




*** A bit scratchy in places but like it says on eBay - doesn't effect the play!

Silver Camel LP #SCLP 002

Record date : 1982



Reviewed by Sam Sweet
  • Stop Smiling Magazine
  • Although this underheard album comes from a year (1982) from which dub purists often shy, it is perfectly split between two of the idiom’s most-revered giants—King Tubby, the premier dub practitioner of the golden age, mans side one, with rhythms by Sly and Robbie, while the King’s foremost apprentice, Scientist (only 22 at the time of this release, already with seven years of experience under his belt), mans side two, with rhythms by Roots Radics. Right brain, left brain; East, West—whatever your analogy, the even split between these two closely related mixers lends itself to deeper interpretation. Despite the vintage on these releases, the music doesn’t display the digi-dancehall feel you’d expect given the year, although it doesn’t sound entirely like ‘70s butter either. Scientist takes a moment from battling Pac-Man, Space Invaders, the Vampires and others to bring the more conventional of the two sides. Mixing is never less than mighty and sophisticated, though. “19000 Dub” leaves Ranking Dread bibble-babbling over the barrel-spare echo of a drum kit and some hovering bass. “Dub It Star” drops out for breaks of gurgling organ-guitar fills. The closing two tracks “Yes Yes Yes Dub” and “Dub It On Yah” are lean and fierce; like tougher, meaner cousins of the mixes these same rhythms got back in the 1970s. As good as the Scientist side is here, the real draw is Tubby’s mixes, particularly track one, “Bom Dub.” Although dub had always flirted with dissonance, Tubby brings a bass and keyboard figure together on “Bom Dub” that sound like metal rubbing metal. The trademark sound of this mix is the phaser effect Tubby devised for the keyboard; it’s soaked in a phaser effect that makes it sound metallic and squeaky. There’s no telling what electronic guts Tubby’s hands were massaging to get this sound from a machine in 1982. He reworked all his electronics himself. “Bom Dub” is what punk dub sounds like. It’s a little like Metal Box, only more warped, because Tubby doing punk dub is stranger than punks doing dub. In my view, Tubby pushed his experimentation further in the ‘80s, continually challenging himself and reassessing his technique; considering the sonic architectures he’d already completed by 1982, it is astounding that he was still drawing entirely new blueprints in the 1980s. More of his work from this period needs to be reissued. Although it was recorded in Jamaica by the pre-eminent 1970s Jamaican bands, there is something cold and lonely in these tracks. Even though they don’t feel as exiled and wintry as Bullwackie’s Bronx mixes, all the sounds and tones here have an isolated, chilly air on them. It’s a bareness, a bleakness, not found in dubs from the 1970s, or in those contemporary to this album’s release. In Julien Temple’s The Filth and the Fury, reggae fanatic John Lydon tells stories of driving across a strange America in a big bus on a doomed tour in the middle of January, looking out the windows with his headphones on; this is the kind of music you imagine him listening to.

    In the late 1950's a polio epidemic hit Jamaica. Three of the many youths who fell victim to the disabling impact of the virus were Cecil Spence, Albert Craig and Lascelle Bulgin, later to be known respectively as "Skeleton", "Apple" and "Wiss". The boys formed a vocal trio whilst inmates of Kingston's Mona Heights Rehabilitation Centre, eventually becoming known collectively as ISRAEL VIBRATION.

    As the doctrines of Rastafarian faith began to spread through the island of Jamaica the youthful trio fell under its influence and they began to grow dreadlocks - with the result that they were expelled from their 'caring institution'. For around the next five years they lived on the streets of Kingston, literally busking a living, until adopted by the Twelve Tribes of Israel organisation. Other Rastas had refused to work with them through the belief that Jah had caused their disability as some form of punishment for previous wrongdoings.

    In 1977 the Twelve Tribes financed their first single release, "Why Worry". Recorded at the Treasure Isle Studio, the tune appeared as a 7" on the Orthodox label showing the trio as "Isreal Vibration" (sic) and the backing musicians as the Twelve Tribes Band. The song and its delivery were markedly in the cultural Rasta tradition - for reference check the early recordings of Burning Spear. The record was a success, and after appearing in talent contests the trio stepped up to become an in-demand item for live shows, supporting the likes of Dennis Brown, Inner Circle, Rita Marley etc. At this stage executive producer Tommy Cowan became interested and financed further recordings, notably "The Same Song" for his own Top Ranking imprint; the "b side" was a dub version "Jam This Jam". Musicians at the session for "The Same Song" single included the Lewis Brothers, Roger and Ian from Inner Circle, known at the time as Fatman Riddim Section.

    Audiences at live performances were dumbfounded at the sight of three handicapped young men delivering Rastafari's righteous message via their own trademark - real time dubbed vocals - whilst joyously skanking away on their crutches!

    In 1978 different versions of both "Why Worry" and "The Same Song" were recorded for the debut album which carried the title of the latter hit song and was released on Top Ranking in Jamaica and licensed via Harvest (EMI) in the UK. The set was acknowledged as an instant classic in London's then lucrative reggae market, there were even rumours of a replica pirate version on sale! The quality of the companion dub set, "Israel Tafari", helped to cement the roots reputation of Israel Vibration who had arrived on the scene when fans where on the look out for the next big vocal group in the lineage and tradition of the Wailers, Heptones, Wailing Souls, Mighty Diamonds etc. At the time "The Same Song" album seemed to sell forever!

    from the Solid Steel info — “Hour 2 has DJ Pain and Solid Steel brother King Megatrip with their ‘Soothing System’ mix, reviving that little known 1970s therapy technique. Buddy Peace, Gaslamp Killer and Mr Chop help them provide the treatment. But, are they doctors? Are they patients? Or are they patients, posing as doctors?! One thing is for certain… you don’t want to get caught after dark in their all-new House of Pain… Get Your Poe on…!”

    This stunning video mix was brought to my attention by King Megatrip over at his excellent blog.... watch & enjoy...

    "We start where we ended the last AV mix with the anthemic 'Hyph Mngo' by Joy Orbison and a few choice words from Sun Ra. We continue in a future vein with the Eliphino Remix for Kidkanevil, Maddslinky given a Toddla T lick, and the heavy 'Work them' by Ramadanman.
    It's a Ninja Trio and a Big Dada double, while James Blake floats over the Altrice remix of Caribou, before we turn up the bass to 11 for Bassnectar. The beats stay heavy as we skip through the Jamie XX remix for Gil Scott-Heron, an 'old skool' trio mixed with RackNRuin and Vent for extra dance floor punch, and it's a D n B finish with the DJ Marky remix of 'Wile Out' by Zinc, Sunny by James Brown tweaked by Featurecast and we end on the sublime Flying Lotus remix for Andreya Triana. Listen, Watch and Enjoy."
