Seanie T meets Aldubb: Armagideon Time (Remixes)

So I had to re-read what I knew “back then” about “Dance A Dub" thought. I am always very satisfied when I read that my opinion or my feelings have not changed fundamentally or even completely. It has always been "fortunately" so far, because I don't want my opinion to be so watery that it changes within a short time. It is also a confirmation for me that my gut feeling makes more sense and reason than a long-considered statement on one and the same topic. In addition, a Lee Groves can't afford to try, as a career changer, to introduce me to a new variant of Dub to demonstrate. I expect a bit more respect ;-) .... Apparently, Echo Beach didn't release the disc like usual, or it simply didn't interest me enough. Anyway, I didn't buy it and I don't have it in any playlist. Hook it up! The next patient ! (there are a lot of patients).
So now the Real Rock Riddim is sucked out to the last. It's not enough that it is played in the opening medley at almost every concert. It's not enough that there are already hundreds of vocal versions of it. "!!!! hey !!! You musicians of today, kindly think up new music for yourself. Doesn't have to be new music right away, but at least a couple of great new riddims!!!” Then you can be happy about one of the old ones and rave again: “everything” used to be better.” So sorry! I'm sorry but I love the Real Rock Riddim. But not 5 and certainly not 9 to 10 times in a row. And with Cindy - or Zündi - or even Synthy-Bass it doesn't get any better or fresher.
I've always been like this. Tunes that I found really awesome I only heard a maximum of 2 times on the same day. Then, in the very acute phase, there was a break until the next day at the latest. There are still a lot of other super awesome tunes. Most of the people I know suck their favorite tunes completely within two or three days and then their euphoria soon subsides. I, on the other hand, put all my favorite tunes in an imaginary treasure chest that I only open again on special occasions. And then always dewy and very well-preserved musical treasures come to light. What you can hardly believe when looking at my old record covers, but that's a completely different topic.
Ok, I like the AlDubb very much. Especially our record deal, which is about a - which is very important to me - Dubdisc, will remain in my very best memories forever. I'm writing this as an introduction so my words won't hit him too hard. But it doesn't help. As much as I love listening to Real Rock, I have them all Dubs of both Al and Rob and I must confess that I've read both AlDubb as well as with Smitty Rob between the respective Dubs did not notice any significant differences. In case it came across as misleading, I stress again that between the remixes by Rob and the Dubs from AlDubb very well there is a big difference. But I just don't feel like listening to the Real Rock riddim so many times in a row only to realize that the echo and reverberations are used here and there. That also makes me suspect that the boys couldn't decide which one Dub because now is the best. Daring thesis from me, because I really haven't listened to the details yet. But I don't feel like it either. And when I read through my lines here myself, I even venture the thesis that if you give me the tapes, I'll make the best ones myself - for my taste Dub from it. Oh dear, now I've finally become megalomaniac. Also pssssssssssst! That has to stay between us. Dub is such free and wild music that it really isn't difficult to play with the right equipment and a bit of a feeling for magic Dub to produce. Whether everyone likes it is difficult, but as you can see, even for professionals :-) Lee Perry put it across in a similar way in an interview. When he pointed out his genius in matters Dub when addressed or questioned, he only said with a tired smile: (loosely translated) …. "Come on now, I just overlaid the tunes several times and re-recorded them and then sent them through fiber and equalizer ..... what's the problem ?" Well, I have to admit that I found that more than just brilliant and still find ;-)

So let me put it this way, take what you need. I don't really need ……………………. lemmi
