JAH KINGDOM COME
RADIO DUBROOM 2011 CHAPTER 12

WWW, November 2011 - It's been a while since the previous chapter of Radio Dubroom 2011 has been posted online, but good things come to those that wait and here it is: a brand new 1 1/2 hour long non-stop mix carrying some heavyweight Roots and Dub from different times and places.

Starting with a healthy selection of old-skool Jamaican material, this chapter surely has many different styles to offer. The Congo's with their classic "Ark of the Covenant", Cornell Campbell's excellent discomix "Lion of Judah", the magnificent Horace Andy with a meditation of the "Youth of Today" (also in Discomix) and Gregory Isaacs with yet another classic from the motion picture "Rockers", followed by Dillinger and Prince Fari form the opening segment. Classic, old skool material that will not only appeal to the elderly among us but equally to folks born at a later point in tome. Good DUB included, of course.

After this, we're diving straight into a selection of UK/Euro DUB and Roots. Dutch singer Lyrical Benjie with two massive tunes, one carrying a heavyweight Dub part and from the UK there's the Talking Dog with not just crucial vibes but equally crucial lyrics. Lyrics that should appeal to the lovers of consciousness as Babylon System is falling even though she claims the opposite.

There's more: From the excellent AKA Dub Part One compilation released by the Scandinavian LUSH RECORDS label, to the Italian DUB Community and even to Japan where Dry and Heavy keep playing their massive Roots and DUB in Old Skool Style. There's French DUB as well, with conscious contents: almost a given when it comes to European contemporary Roots and Culture.

The show closes off with an extended version by the UK based "Dub From Atlantis" collective, more or less a cover version of a classic track of which yours truly has forgotten the name. Last but not least, here are the Abassi All-Stars with vocalist Kenny Knots once again explaining that Babylon really has a Wicked Intention, something that has to be mentioned.

EUROPEAN DUB RISING

WWW, July 2011 - In this selection of heavyweight UK/Euro Dub and Roots, we start of with a couple of new free and legal releases, only to continue with a selection of better material featuring -among many more- Mad Professor and Slimmah Sound. Nuff vocals, more Dubs, a lot of it reviewed at mp3.dubroom.org.

There might be a crisis inna Europe at the moment, but it has little to do when it comes to the inspiration and output of the UK/Euro Dub and Roots Massive. We've seen some very crucial releases lately, of which we play the opening track followed by Alambic Conspiracy's contribution to the Third chapter of the Italian Dub Community Showcase series.

Followed is a to the UK (DFA, Mad Professor, Echo Ranks and Dub Terror, Jah Warrior and Peter Broggs, Bush Chemist, Alpha and Omega) and the Netherlands (Lyrical Benjie, Slimmah Sound and Jah Melody). Heavyweight Dubs and vocal tracks, all of them pure niceness for the true Rootsman.

The selection closes of with two titles from the Italian Dub Community Showcase series: BR Stylers as well as Moa Anbessa can be considered among the top of the Italian Dub scene and this is -0as can be heard- not without reason.

European Dub Rising, to chant down Babylon and lift up Consciousness. Enjoy!

BLESSETH BASSLINES
RADIO DUBROOM 2011 CHAPTER 10

WWW, July 2011 - Opening up with a healthy selection of (brand) new Roots, going further into 1980's Rub a Dub, moving forward to contemporary UK/Euro Dub and Roots: Chapter 10 of Radio Dubroom 2011 can be called a versatile selection without exaggeration.

Everton Blender opens up with a cool and dreadly One Drop riddim from his album "It's My Time", in which he explains where he's coming from and not going to. Luciano takes over and gives thanks and praise to the Almighty One, a thing which Gappy Ranks also does in a brand new upcoming release by VP Records. Also brand new from VP is "Times Like This" by Queen Ifrica, taken from the latest Reggae Gold installment. Natty King closes of this introductionary section of contemporary Roots Reggae, with a track called "Pray Today" which you can legally download for free.

Next up is a selection of early 1980's Reggae. The classic "Worries In The Dance" by Frankie Paul, recently re-released by VP Records, has not lost one milligram of it's heavyweight. The very same can be said about "Promised Land", Aswad's cooperation with Dennis Brown also re-released by VP. We move further with a couple of dubs by Scientist and two titles by Earl 16 and Mikey Dread, all of which are recently reviewed at http://mp3.dubroom.org and can be legally downloaded for free.

The second half of the show contains some very powerful vibes from the UK/Euro DUB and Roots front. Opening up with the heartfelt "Conscious Man" from Das Pilah, followed by Daweh Congo's "Straight Up Conscious" of which we also play the Dub only to continue with more and more Dub: France-based No More Babylon, Jah Roots from the Netherlands, the US based Rastafarians, and Bush Chemists from UK.

Bush Chemists, Jah Warrior, RDK Sound System, Youthman Stepper, Vibronics, Killa Sound Yard: they all come with one or more titles in the heavyweight Steppers selection that closes of this chapter of Radio Dubroom 2011. Heavyweight Steppers in the style made popular throughout the UK and subsequently the rest of Europe. Digital sounds combined with heartical instrumental playing, lyrical contributions and above all: skillful Dub engineering.

Play loud, louder than loud and when you have a subwoofer you might want to put it on too and disturb the neighbor with consciousness once more!

Jah Roots - Whole Lotta Dub (2002)

noreply@blogger.com (Dubroom.org) — Sat, 09 Jul 2011 13:55:00 +0000

JAH ROOTS - WHOLE LOTTA DUB (2002)
FROM THE DUBROOM STUDIO ARCHIVES

WWW, July 2011 - Once lost but now found: straight from the dusty corners of the Dubroom Studio Archives, where this recording has been mixed probably somewhere in the early years of the 21st century. It's an instrumental track with a whole lotta live Dub mixing by Messian Dread and some masterful keyboard works of Sure D over an Ire One Drop rhythm laid down by Imro Fedor on Drums and Erik on Bass.

You could argue, that the title is not really covering the contents of the track. After all, there is not a single instance in which the drum and the bass play without any other instrument rolling along. Therefore, as said, this is an instrumental track.

Sure D, the keyboard player, recorded several tracks into the -rather primitive- multitrack, all showcasing his talents and skill. The drums was recorded rather primitive, too. Having no budget at all, just two microphones were used and since there was no bass microphone present, the bass drum doesn't really come forward in the mix. Still, a tight drum and bass section can easily be discerned.

So, what about the title?

The answer is obviously in the mix itself. Even though the keyboards are never completely cut off, there is still a Whole Lotta DUB mixing going on. It was mixed live by Messian Dread, everything done in just one take, with the intention to apply subtle Dub mixing in order to emphasize the talents of the players of instruments.

No programming was involved whatsoever during the whole process. In fact, the computer is only used to record the mix and subsequent mastering. Definitely a rare recording, too good to not be shared with those that are interested in the Dubroom's history.

New Format Of mp3.dubroom.org Reaching Final Stages

noreply@blogger.com (Dubroom.org) — Wed, 29 Jun 2011 12:49:00 +0000

WWW, June 29 2011 - Well, I finally am at the point wherein I expect to soon be ready with the renovation of http://mp3.dubroom.org.

In any case, new reviews can be added in the new format. "All" I still have to do is:

- transform the artist pages in the MP3 portal into the new format. Some already are in there: take a look at http://mp3.dubroom.org/scientist.htm or http://mp3.dubroom.org/mikeydread.htm and see how easy it is to get the tunes and/or read the reviews.
- Transport the podcast reviews to the new portal
- Make more pages for net labels and podcast creators

When everything is finished, I will delete the MP3 museum as well as some other features which are now incorporated in the new format in other ways. Basically, http://mp3.dubroom.org/ will contain a section of single track MP3 reviews, a section of reviews of Net Albums, a section of reviewed Podcast and artist pages, all of which are browseable. For example, when you go to http://mp3.dubroom.org/mp3downloads.htm you will find pages containing 25 links to tunes each. When you go to http://mp3.dubroom.org/mp3albums.htm you will find pages containing links to 10 albums on each page. The podcast section, as said, is close to empty still.

I hope you will find using http://mp3.dubroom.org/ more easy than before. I hope, Jah Willing, to be ready with all the artist pages within like seven days or so.

REEFER MADNESS IN THE NETHERLANDS 2011
FAR RIGHT-WING ADMINISTRATION CONSIDERING PUTTING STRONG WEED ON HARD DRUGS LIST

WWW, June 24 2011 - A commission to advice the Dutch administration concerning the nation's drugs policy claims that cannabis with over 15% THC should be considered hard drugs in Dutch criminal law.

In interviews with Dutch public TV, the ministers of Health and Justice respond positively as they enter the parliament building to officially receive the advice from the commission.

When the advice is brought into law, this would bring the Netherlands back to the days of Reefer Madness as the world famous Dutch tolerance policy towards Cannabis would de facto end.

Babylon Observer Video Report: The DEA And The Dutch

noreply@blogger.com (Dubroom.org) — Sun, 06 Feb 2011 12:35:00 +0000

RIGHT-CLICK TO DOWNLOAD VIDEO

WWW, February 2011 - According to documents recently released by Wikileaks, the American DEA is conducting what they call "controlled drugs deliveries" within the country of the Netherlands. The Americans do this without official permission, which they call "unofficial" but could better be called "illegal". The Babylon Observer watches an item from Dutch public TV and in accordance with Fair Use laws, shares his observation...

In the leaked documents, the American ambassador in the Netherlands is complaining how the Dutch Justice department does not want to go into official DEA requests to conduct these "controlled deliveries of drugs". Apparently things changed in the end of 2005, because in the first half of 2006, there were already six of such deliveries conducted on Dutch soil and with cooperation of the Dutch police.

What changed?

A political situation, perhaps... Or something more sinister...

However, the Wikileaks show that the Americans are now very pleased because they found a way to bypass the Dutch Justice department by conducting so-called "police to police information", that is: information from one police unit to another.

As a professor in criminology, very much esteemed in the Netherlands, this is either done illegally by the police who doesn't inform the justice department or it is done illegally by the Justice department itself, because no official request is done in either case.

ICON OF CHRIST IN HIS KINGLY CHARACTER
a spiritual meditation

WWW, February 2011 - Everyone who looks at the above picture (click for enlargement) will answer "Haile Selassie", when asked "who is this?". There's a little problem, though: this icon which was found in a church at Mnt Sinai was allegedly created in the 6th century. Is there a significance behind this fact?

Personally, I believe that the Ethiopian Emperor is an Icon of Christ in His Kingly Character. You could say, in short, a living Psalm talking about the coming reign of Yesus Kristos as He will end Babylon just like it is foretold. An icon is a reminder, a symbol of something or Someone. Just look to your own computer and it is very clear just what an ikon is.

Now, to this ancient painting...

It is evident that there is more than a similarity between the Ethiopian Emperor and this painting. Unless it turns out that this is abig hoax (which I doubt considering the fact that I came across this painting by means of a non-Rasta who posted it), it is a striking confirmation of the fact that yes indeed, the Ethiopian Emperor has this spiritual function of bein an ikon of Christ in His Kingly Character.

DUBROOM RENOVATION PROJECT (5) - STUDIO DUBROOM
FROM THE WEBMASTER

DUBROOM, February 2011 - I've managed to renovate another part of the Dubroom, this time it is http://studio.dubroom.org/ which is an artist/producer-only section filled with tips, tricks and downloads. Most of the material present is older but now the studio is ready to be expanded again. Some material has been taken off-line, though. These are parts which were hardly ever read or were surely not about to be updated even they they should. I hope that everything is more overseeable.

The different loops, samples, soundfonts which you can download now all have their own download page, from where you can also click to comment on the material, either via the blog or via the forum. I do plan to share some more material to download pretty soon but I cannot say when that will be.

Babylon Observer Video Research: The Psyop Program (1968)

noreply@blogger.com (Dubroom.org) — Sat, 29 Jan 2011 18:44:00 +0000

WWW, January 2011 -- In this original 1968 U.S. Army video footage, we are introduced to the concept of "Psychological Operations", in short: psy-ops. In simple sights and sounds, the video explains just how the population of a foreign country is being targeted to, as the video states: "make them perceive things from the desired viewpoint".

The story in the video is set in a fictional country called "Host Land", somewhere in South America. In the movie, the government of Host Land asks the USA for help to fight domestic opposition, portrayed as "communists". In a room somewhere within the American embassy, a conference takes place wherein this is shown.

The rest of the video shows how the Psychological Operations are conducted in Host Land. The use of entertainers, media, infiltrations and other means are presented and explained.

The viewer of the video will not have a hard time to recognize the very same principals shown in this video in current events.

Book: Earth's Earliest Ages by GH Pember (Review and Free PDF Download)

noreply@blogger.com (Dubroom.org) — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 19:41:00 +0000

WWW, January 2011 - Originally written in 1876 as an answer to the then rising philosophy of Theosophy which gave birth to the modern New Age and New World Order movements, "Earth's Earliest Ages" is much more than that. You can consider this a classic, yes the classic on topics that have to do with the Biblical account of the time of creation to Noah's Flood. And, no, this is not you average "Creationist" idea or cowardish knee-fall to the theory of evolution.

In fact, G.H. Pember explains in a way which can even be understood in today's English how the Bible tells us that the famous words "In the Beginning" do not refer to what is usually called the first creation day. In other words, there is a huge amount of time between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2.

There was a civilization ages before the creation of Adam and Eve, a creation which might very well have been on several planets of our solar system. The Bible gives an account how the earth was not created "empty and void", but was rather made that way as the result of a judgment of the Most High which came on the then angelic civilization of which Lucifer, now known as Satan, was the predominant person. It was his fall that cause the earth to get into the state which we can see described in the first verses of the bible.

Pember also goes in-depth concerning the events described in Genesis 6. A time before Noah's flood which the New Agers refer to as "Atlantis", and Jesus Christ called "The Days Of Noah". It was in that time, that the Nephilim came to earth as the result of a wicked fornication between fallen angels and female human beings, the "daughters of Adam". These events, described in the Bible as well as the Books of Enoch and the Kebra Negast to name just three ancient books cause the Most High to send the flood over the earth.

A very interesting and more than recommended book for everyone even remotely aware of the relevance of Earth's Earliest Ages. In times wherein the only two options seem to be that either we believe everything was created about 6000 years ago or we hold to the ridiculous evolution theory which is brought as fact by the established educational institutes, it is of the utmost importance to know just what the Bible actually says about this topic.

Get the book in print, which includes extra material and is edited a bit, or download it for free in the original scanned version (PDF): it doesn't matter how, but please: get it!

noreply@blogger.com (Dubroom.org) — Mon, 24 Jan 2011 21:51:00 +0000

From Christafari to Christafarianism to Christafarian, what you will find in this heavily documented and footnoted essay is that this carefully created culture turns out to be an Evangelical caricature of Rastafarian culture which puts Evangelical and Rastafarian Christians in a totally unnecessary state of war with each other and amongst themselves.

A MUST READ for Rastafarians, Evangelicals and Christafarians!

Free Book Download: Watchman Nee - The Normal Christian Church Life

noreply@blogger.com (Dubroom.org) — Mon, 24 Jan 2011 21:24:00 +0000

Another wonderfull book containing a compilation of speeches by Watchman Nee. Nee was one of the greatest Christian teachers from later history. This book contains a set of crucial meditations wherein Watchman lays down a biblical concept of what church is supposed to be. Turns out to be quite different then your usual denominational church. Although many have turned Watchman Nee into an idol and have created all kinds of organizations under his name, this has never been the intention of Watchman Nee. His teachings remain to be priceless as they are not his teachings, but truly that of Jah.

Book Review: Dread Jesus (Spencer)

noreply@blogger.com (Dubroom.org) — Mon, 24 Jan 2011 20:30:00 +0000

This is the book that I have been waiting for, for a very a long time, so I can't really express my happiness with it's existence. It is a must read for every Jesus Dread and others interested in the relationship between Rastafari and Christianity.

The writer explores "Rastafarian Christology", by analyzing many reggae songs, interviewing many known and lesser known Rastafarians, and studying the history of Rastafari.

He finds out, that there are two main streams within Rastafari, one is inspired by Hindu and esoterically teachings, while the other group is heading towards Christianity more and more, even to such an extend that brother William describes the possibility of a "Selassian Church", as a denomination next to Lutheran and the like.

Well documented and thoroughly investigated, this book is blessed to be a good source for forming your own opinion.

I would recommend it especially for those Christians that always were told, that all Rastafarians believe in Selassie as God, as it explains the various interpretations about Yesus Kristos that exist within the movement.

Dread Jesus also contains a testimony from sistren Judy Mowatt, former member of Bob Marley & the Wailer's backing trio "the I-Threes". You can read how she described the process in her life that made her come to the conclusion that Selassie is not Yesus Kristos, and some struggles and blessings that she has experienced during these times.

This is one of the first Christian publications on Rastafari that does not contain the bias prejudice that you find so rampant in the Christian World. It's not yet another cheap description of a movement supposedly existing of weird herb smokers with long uncombed hair.

Haile Selassie's Christianity is described and studied. His relationship with the evangelical world, where well known Christian Evangelist Billy Graham invited His Majesty to open a congress in Berlin in 1966, an invitation accepted by Haile Selassie.

You can read portions of the speech that HIM held in front of 1000's of evangelical Christians, a speech not often quoted.

Good for reading, good for studying, good for meditation, good for having as resource, I want to big up this book for it can be a blessing for all Jesus Dreads worldwide.

Book Review: Chanting Down Babylon - The Rastafari Reader (Spencer, ed.)

noreply@blogger.com (Dubroom.org) — Mon, 24 Jan 2011 20:19:00 +0000

This is the book on Rastafari for everyone who is misinformed about the movement. Especially Christians who have thus far only read Christian "exposé's" on Rastafari will benefit significantly from the information in Chanting Down Babylon.

William David Spencer is one of the few Christian writers I know with an objective view on Rastafari. His book "Dread Jesus" has become a must read for all those who are interested in Rastafari and Christianity. Simply because of the valuable interviews and analyses it contains.

Chanting Down Babylon is arguably even more relevant.

Where Spencer wrote his book Dread Jesus all by himself, in this one he is editor and contributor. Several writers from different backgrounds all contributed to what can surely be called a standard work on Rastafari.

For example: it contains original Rastafarian books. They have never been made available for a large audience before, in spite of their absolute essentiality. Chanting Down Babylon will introduce the reader to these writings, such as "The Promised Key". And with that, of course, provides the reader with some of the meditations that gave birth to this movement.

But it goes beyond that.

As said, there are several contributors to this work. The variety of their perspectives guarantees an objective picture for the reader, who is introduced to a dynamic culture.

The book explains why, in the words of Rasta group Culture, "Babylon can't study the Rastaman". Indeed, Babylon will never be able to overstand. But there is simply too much sense in Chanting Down Babylon for all others to be ignored.

So forget about all these so called "Christian Studies" about Rastafari. Forget about the anthropological and psychological "analyses". None of them truly describe Rastafari. They only make the Rastaman sing that Culture song once again.

Chanting down Babylon gives a true perspective on the movement. Because all the words in this 467 page book are written by people who know the movement inside out and some have even been there when it all started.
