Drawing on the ethnic mix of his East London upbringing, the track is a complicated atmospheric trip that pays tribute to dub roots while pushing them in &#8220;invisible,&#8221;\u00a0unexpected ways.The tune begins with deep, reverbed bass tones, his unique characteristic, and\u00a0gets the listener in a groove that feels both historic and nostalgic. However, this is not dub by the book. A kind, almost playful synth melody and light piano touches dance playfully over the powerful punch of the bass, resulting in an unusual contrast in mood and tone. It&#8217;s dub, but not as you know it; complex, experimental, and surprisingly light on its feet. The drums offer another layer: complex, jazzy, and almost unexpected. They&#8217;re not happy with the conventional off-beat pulse of classic dub; instead, they take the rhythm to new elevated positions, providing the music a free-form energy that touches on Jazz Fusion. Meanwhile, retro\u00a0synths pass through the mix, adding a psychedelic character that suddenly transports you into dreamspace before Wobble&#8217;s bass brings you back to Earth. &#8220;Dub In The East&#8221; is more than simply a dub music; it&#8217;s a soundscape created via memories, culture, and passion. It feels like an adventure fstrongly rooted in experimental modernism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=2506897093\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/track=3776598049\/transparent=true\/\" seamless><a href=\"https:\/\/wardle.bandcamp.com\/album\/dub-volume-one\">Dub Volume One by Jah Wobble<\/a><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Photo Credit: Jah Wobble photo by David Guttridge<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/jahwobble.com\/\">https:\/\/jahwobble.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Jah.Wobble.Music\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Jah.Wobble.Music<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/jahwobble.bandcamp.com\">https:\/\/jahwobble.bandcamp.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With &#8220;Dub In The East,&#8221; Jah Wobble maintains his recognized legacy as a sound trailblazer&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":27680,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14,5],"tags":[1419,1934],"class_list":["post-27679","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pop-rock-reviews","category-reviews","tag-dub","tag-jah-wobble"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27679","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27679"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27679\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27681,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27679\/revisions\/27681"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27680"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27679"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27679"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27679"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
