The Box of Dub album features an all-star cast of Dub-step
pioneers: Skream, Burial, Tayo, Scuba, Digital Mystikz,
Kode 9 and more.
The album is a unique project for Soul Jazz Records,
featuring all-newly recorded exclusive tracks of Future
Dub and Dub-step from key artists in the scene. After two
killer Digital Mystikz singles on Soul Jazz Records last
year and an amazing amount of publicity around the
Dub-step movement, this album shows clearly the influences
of original electronic dub pioneers such as King Tubby,
Scientist and King Jammys on this new generation of
artists and producers.
Emerging out of South London, Dub-step has grown from its
roots in Grime and Drum and Bass scenes to create a new
movement of artists - such as Digital Mystikz, Kode 9,
Burial - influenced by Sound-system culture as well as
technology. With heavy bass-lines and complex drum
patterns, this is dance music that also works for the
mind, being both progressive and innovative (Burial's
album was album of the year in The Wire, Observer and
Guardian newspapers).
With a distinctly UK urban sound, this new album also
shows a nod towards Jamaican Dub and electronic wizadry.
