Lee 'Scratch' Perry: Return From Planet Dub auf 2 CDs

Auf dem Planeten Dub haben Dubblestandart mit mittlerweile zehn Alben bereits einen eigenen Krater hinterlassen.

Gegründet Ende der Achtziger unter dem Eindruck von Lee Perrys einzigartigen Black Ark-Produktionen und Adrian Sherwoods radikalen Mixmanövern auf On-U-Sound, hat die bewährte und begehrte Backing Band (Ari Up, Lee »Scratch« Perry, Dillinger, Lilian Allen, Top Cat), um Paul Zasky den jamaikanischen Produktionstechniken ihr eigenes, europäisches Gesicht gegeben: bassbasiert, New Wave-infomiert, mixtechnisch auf dem neusten Stand und versiert im Seiltanz zwischen digitalem Wumms und analoger Wärme, wortlos vermittelnd zwischen Patois und Schmäh.

Mit dem elften Album krönen sie ihre Karriere mit einer Serie Aufsehen erregender Kollaborationen (u.a. Lee »Scratch« Perry, Ari Up und Regiemeister David Lynch!) und einer in dieser Saison in Sachen Dichte, Fülle, Tiefe und Schwere ihresgleichen sucht. Aufgenommen wurde in Kingston, der Bronx und im heimatlichen Studio in Wien.

Rainford Hugh Perry, aka The Upsetter, aka President Abraham Parry, and most known as Lee 'Scratch' Perry with his full length for summer 2009! - Produced by Paul Zasky & Robbie Ost, and backed by outernational Austrian Dub-veterans Dubblestandard and featuring as main guest-singers Ari-Up (New Age Steppers, The Slits) and longtime friend Gudrun Liemberger. Two CD deluxe-digipak set comes also with the surprisingly and rare appearance by film director David Lynch, plus remixes by G-Corp, Rob Smith (both from the UK), and the US Subatomic Sound on the second disc. Extended Linernotes by David Katz (author of 'People Funny Boy: The Genius Of Lee Scratch Perry and Solid Foundation: An Oral History of Reggae).

Dubblestandard was formed in 1988 as a reaction to the stagnant Austrian pop scene, the group was heavily inspired by the sounds emanating from Lee 'Scratch' Perry's legendary dub space, the Black Ark, as well as Adrian Sherwood's pick-and-mix productions of the On-U Sound label, and pioneering sound system operator, Jah Shaka, infusing these dub influences within their own heady blend of hardcore reggae and new wave.

It was way back in this late 80ties when it all started: Dubblestandard supported and backed Lee Perry while touring and over 20 years later one will experience the dub mothership finally reaching AND returnung from the Planet Dub, guided on autopilot by Dubblestandart's cavernous excursion into deep dub, chilling house and dubble-tough dubstep!

Lee Perry (born March 20, 1936 in St. Mary's, Jamaica) and his dispense wisdom on various topics, including his magic genie: Musical wars and Natty's dread lock - Mister Rich and Mistress Bitch - blessed sh*t's voodoo, which takes the form of the rumbling bass lines that reach him when he sits on his toilet pit, plus the lowness of Hell and extreme heights of Heaven! He revisits all time classics such as 'Disco Devil' and 'Blackboard Jungle Dub' in a new dub form, while 'I Foo China' is reminiscent of the halcyon days of 'Jungle' at On-U Sound. Just make sure that English-speaking children are out of the room before you blast 'Fungus Rock,' in which Perry takes it upon himself to be the moderator of bedroom etiquette!

'Return From Planet Dub' is the next chapter of Dub, one of those uniquely Jamaican creations that has been risen from the backstreets of Kingston to gain reverence and influence around the world!
