Album Review

Just 700 copies made. Each heavyweight chip-board jacket is hand screen printed. Dubkasm (composed of Digistep & DJ Stryda) is one of the anchors of the worldwide roots, dub & sound system movement. Active since 1994, the Bristol institution tours constantly and has numerous essential vinyl releases on Peng Sound, Bristol Archive and most especially their own Sufferah’s Choice and Dubkasm imprints. My Music (Version) opens with a heavy piano lead and hard riddim. Sparks fly from flint & steel hi hat, an addictive, powerhouse bassline, and Solo Banton & Buggsy floating in and out of dubspace. Banton’s voice bursts forth again, with declarations of faith in “Crowned In Dub,” the version to “Never Let I Down.” The tune rocks with another serious bassline and neck-snapping riddim, but is perhaps most defined by the unforgettable percussive steel pan melody, keeping the warm Caribbean roots alive in a dark, cavernous hall of reverb and echo.
