Dub

Review: Rasmus Allin has kicked off a brand new solo alias for this new Treacherous Dub album on Copenhagen-based label StereoRoyal. It is in part an homage to the original Jamaican dub sound but with live drums and instruments also layered in with electronic sounds and a celebratory vibe. It's filled with purely instrumental tracks - a first for this long standing artist - and features an lithograph artwork made by the artist himself. Sonically it's richly rewarding, with bottomless echo and rugged riffs on some of the uptempo tunes meshing nicely with more languid and laid back dubs elsewhere.
