Heavyweight Dub Champion

one of the best cd he ever put out :)

Yes I, this is great music! The Scientist is one of the wildest original DUB MASTERS, and here he defends his title as "Heavyweight Dub Champion". You'll play this album again and again, and every time you'll hear something new. Whether you're looking for a chill out experience, or for some heavy bass music to dance to, you'll love it.All ten tracks are layed down by the legendary Roots Radics. In the time this album was first released, they were the studio band for Channel One Studios and dancehall was known as Rub A Dub. Channel One was for Rub A Dub what Studio One was for ska and early roots reggae.You can also hear the voice of Barrington Levy, beautifully mixed in reverb, delay and feedback. In fact, most tracks are the dubs for his album "Robin Hood". And the voice is definitely not the only thing that mixed out. There is not a moment in the tracks, that you don't hear excessive mixing going on. I think this is one of the strongest point from the Scientist, he is really using his devices to the max. I'll spare you the technical details, but I can imagine a smoking mixing table, after Scientist touched it with his hands.This album is absolutely one of the reasons why many people find, that the best DUB was created in the 1980's. And surely, when you compare this album with the works of many of today's Dub Mixers, you wonder why, with the technical possibilities of today, there isn't much more heavyweight Dub around.

Why fah the stupid be so very very stupid? This Scientist subject to slander? Such craziness -a Heavy Weight Dub Champ taken to demonic depths by a handkercheif covered pistol shot character assassination- can only bring about Michael Tyson comparisons. An' he don't ever forever never say "Bits," because (again like Iron Mike) he just can't harm the beautiful ladies -rather, he steals them from out they boyfriends' arms an' make lubs wit dub and most probably a big p p. So I say Bum Bayehe wit Rope an' Dope

There can be no disputing that scientist is the greatest musician ever (well, except for afroman.) None. This album reaffirms that. When Scientist wailes on the sitar, or sings "B1tch, I'm gonna kill you" you must be caught up in his masterful flow.I truly regret that this was the last scientist album, since he got 25 years in prison for rape. But luckily, he's produced 6 top notch albums for us to savor for the rest of our lizives.

Good Album. Find it free if you can.Dub can get a little one dimensional after a while though.

SCIENTISTはKING TUBBYやLEE PERRYの次の世代で80年代初期 ﾙｰﾂからﾀﾞﾝｽﾎｰﾙへの移行期に傑作を連発したDUB ｴﾝｼﾞﾆｱで、このｱﾙﾊﾞﾑは彼の最初期のｱﾙﾊﾞﾑでﾘｽﾞﾑｾｸｼｮﾝにはROOTS RADICSを使っています。ﾀｲﾄﾙ通りのﾃﾞｨｰﾌﾟな音処理で曲調が単調な分 ｱﾚﾝｼﾞに趣向を凝らしており、空間処理も初期DUBより引き出しが増えた感じ。私が購入したのは2015年　Mirumir盤で表記はありませんでしたが紙ｼﾞｬｹｯﾄでした。音も非常に良かったので大満足です。

Ne absolut geniale Scheibe.Chillig und eingängig, auch das Cover bietet wieder was fürs Auge.Dub Fans: wenn ihr die noch nicht habt wird's aber Zeit

This new and not widely available Mirumir vinyl pressing sounds great! Crisp, tight, and deep. The legal notes state that this was licensed by Hopetown Overton Brown (Scientist) and carry a © 2015 copyright date, so it seems entirely possible this rare, rare record has been legally reissued. The music itself is sublime but I'm guessing you already know that since you're here...

One of scientists bests and on a lovely engineered and manufactured vinyl 12". A great price and superb packaging so item was in mint condition. Well done to Amazon for solving the vinyl postage problems of the past.

Great dub album add this to your collection if you like other Scientist albums this one is one of the best
