From the excellent Jahtarijahtari.org Net label, the very excellent and heavy dub “Cryovolcano” by Blue Vitriol – I imagine that’s some sort of special Swedish medicine – perhaps something to resurrect you after you are cryogenically preserved in a volcano… but we know what that dub it really is.

Then from Scotland, it’s the Butch Cassidy Sound System and their “butch’s brew” which is a sort of a version of versions, ahem, a “mega-mix” if you will of their superb album “Butches Brew” – go out and get it now.

After that its the dub and vocal digitally remixed by dub.com of the powerful African Brothers “Lead us father” on easy-star – we hear they have a follow up project to the hugely popular “dub side of the moon” called “radiodread” – it’s a dub version of radiohead’s “ok computer” – looking forward to that.

Back to Jahtari – Disrupt & the Jah Bit invasion, followed by a scratch classic – susan cadogan’s “dub it baby”… a Perry gem. Slade from Burning Babylon brings the Ethiopian flavor to the dubcast with “Addis Red Dub” – check out all the albums from Burning Babylon if you haven’t already – truly some original dub flavors and styles coming through.

The Love Grocer brings their ska on the dub-sized “waiting at the gate” – what a track – always gets the girls up to dance. We go back to a deep deep riddim dub “Soldier Red – All For Jake Weekend Dub” from a version excursion Sundyberg dub championship despiracy.com had 2 years back, a classic from Tino Corp and the superb Eating Betty check out his latest cd “Reverbalism” on cd baby.

Thanks to all the artists in tonight’s dubcast – dub.com – dub worldwide – goodnight dub fans wherever you are.

Our friend Chill Will has created a very special dubsession for the Super Bowl, mute the half time sound and play this instead. Dub your TV.

Thanks to all the dubheads who’ve listened to the dubcast and the excellent feedback and submissions for the next dubcast from dubheads and producers worldwide. Due to a dub meltdown on one of dub.com studios hard drives (probably too much bass) the master of dubcast#2 was dubbed out into etherspace. We are rebuilding from scratch, vinyl, tape, 8-track, reel to reel, 45s, 10″s, 12″s and what ever dub magic we can muster…
