- Blue Vinyl
Limitiertes blaues Vinyl! Über vier Alben hinweg hat sich Pachyman als
meisterhafter Handwerker des Dub-Reggae bewiesen. Inspiriert von
Legenden wie King Tubby und Scientist, nutzt er Vintage-Equipment,
erschafft monumentale Klangwelten und versteht intuitiv die hypnotische
Kraft der Wiederholung. Mit 'Another Place' geht er einen Schritt
weiter: Er verbindet Dub mit den vielfältigen Einflüssen moderner Musik -
von der Synth-Pop-Ästhetik eines William Onyeabor und Yellow Magic
Orchestra bis hin zu den tiefen, atmosphärischen Klängen von Basic
Channel’s Dub-Techno. Ein Album, das Tradition ehrt und zugleich neue
Klangräume erschließt.
- Limited Edition- Numbered
LP version. The Ramones were punks before punk rock was even invented.
With their catchy, sing-along tunes, iconic hair styles and outfits,
Joey, Dee Dee, Johnny and Tommy rewrote rock history and are now, as
part of the first wave of US punk, firmly considered part of the
subcultural world heritage. In the DUB-cultural world, on the other
hand, their footprint has been pretty slim, particularly if one
considers their stomping, three-chord songs, instantly recognizable
chants and laconic humor. There are a few reggae and Latin versions of
their songs online, but never before have the Ramones been honored with
an entire album in early reggae style -- until now. The label Echo
Beach, a bit of a specialist for missions such as these, got together
with Andre Meyer (production, bass) and Manougazou (production, guitar).
Also back in the team is keyboarder and DubXanne mastermind Guido
Craveiro, who plays Hammond organ and piano on half of the tracks. The
other two additions to the core team are singer and all-round
instrumentalist Sebastian Sturm and drummer Raul Pfeffer. Together they
homed in on some of the most iconic Ramones three-minute-singalongs,
including ''Blitzkrieg Bop'', ''I Wanna Be Sedated'', ''Pet Sematary''
and ''Rock'n'Roll Highschool'', and treated them to a reggae make-over.
From up-and-coming youngsters to living legends, everyone is included,
albeit with a focus on the elder statemen and stateswomen: the vast
majority of the guests are over 60 and look back on deeply impressive
careers! The artists come from Jamaica, the USA, the UK and Germany. All
contributed one or two songs, and all of them tackle the songs in pairs
with infectiously good humor, transforming legendary punk rock bangers
into unpredictable dub tracks. It almost goes without saying that the
lyrics have been adapted to everyday Jamaican life with a great deal of
fun and creativity.
This Is...Augustus Pablo is a studio album by Augusts Pablo originally released in 1974 and co-written and produced by Pablo's childhood friend and critically acclaimed reggae producer Clive Chin. The album boasts an impressive list of session musicians including Ansel Collinson Keyboards and Lloid Parks and Aston Barrett both on bass guitar. The album was one of the first to showcase Pablo's unique use of the melodica.
