 ▌ ░ ▐  There have been definite stages to the musical output of the man  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  Jah Warrior.firstly in the late 80's and early nineties, his      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  sound was in the tradition of early digital innovations, from     ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  the same school as early Shaka digital UK 12"s such as "Warrior   ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  Stance" by Dread and Fred, and the pounding physical force of     ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  the Sound Iration dub plates. Jah Warrior weighed in with his     ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  contribution to this radical digital pressure with his early      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  Napthali tunes, some tracks co produced by Keety Roots of Black   ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  Legacy fame. Jah Warrior's album with Napthali was a committed,   ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  serious album. Well dread, with a deep deep bass resonance,and    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  spiritually uplifting message lyrics. A classic of early UK       ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  roots, avoiding the pitfalls of cliche. Napthali gave a truly     ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  spirited performance, and the dub treatments out of Dougie's      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  Conscious Sounds studio were innovative and focussed.             ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐                                                                    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  His next stage was the dub cut up "sound collage" style, deep     ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  and layered textures of sound. "Dub From the Heart "vol 1 and 2   ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  were radical explorations of that form, creating meditative,      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  reflective moods. (By the way, any one who loved that sound       ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  should certainly have checked out the Hydrophonics releases by    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  now, with their sampled drum tracks reworked, rewound, spliced    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  and looped to bass oblivion by the man Dougie, Jah Warriors long  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  time "partner in dub explorations." ) Eno's classic "bass         ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  collage" album of the late 70's was "My Life in the Bush of       ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  Ghosts", featuring hard funk rhythms and an array of African and  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  Arabic styles with a definite dub influence in the dynamics:      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  These two albums then, "Dub From the Heart" 1 and 2, were Jah     ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  Warrior's "dub collages" , coming from a similar angle on severe  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  bass overload ,and making use of an impressionistic sense of      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  silence and spaciousness in dub. Extreme and intelligent music.   ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐                                                                    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  His third stage was harsh, brutal bass pressure: Pugnacious,      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  cantankerous, disciplined noise. Bass dropping hard, re           ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  arranging your guts, and snare drum echoes to the fore, rimshots  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  cracking. Urban and contemporary, in a form that was stripped to  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  the basics, yet woven through with complex percussion patterns.   ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐                                                                    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  This album ,"Rougher than the Rest", is in that style: Stripped   ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  down to raw bass and drum dynamics, it is a kind of testament     ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  to, and personal message from the man U Brown. Jah Warrior has    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  clearly gone to great lengths to make this disc a "personal       ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  platform" for the man U Brown, a platform for his lyrical         ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  expression and his musical message. The cd comes with an          ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  excellent 8 page interview and biography, looking back on the     ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  musical heritage, memories and contributions of U Brown. Anyone   ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  who loves roots and culture and revives will get a lot of         ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  pleasure from reading these memories. Small portraits and         ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  stories of meeting and working with Tubby's, U Roy, Joe Gibbs,    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  The Mighty Diamonds, Jacob Miller, Bunny Lee...The lyrics are a   ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  lot more personal too this time around ( much more so than "3     ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  the Roots Way", his previous album with Ranking Joe and Trinity,  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  though that album featured some undeniably firing dubs). His      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  style on this album has energy and a serious focus, the highly    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  personalised lyrics chanted with force and at times veering into  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  "singjay" territory (the fusion of DJ chant and singing style     ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  pioneered by Johnny Osbourne on his early Studio One tunes.)      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  which is a fine thing, and compliments his presentation.          ▌ ░ ▐

 ▌ ░ ▐  "Jah is my Strength" is the hardest track here, backed up by      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  Dougie's rude and boisterous syn drum patterns spiralling over    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  the surface of the mix, Twinkle Brothers style, and Jah           ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  Warrior's melancholy and thoughtful piano melody brooding in the  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  background. "Jah always make me feel so positive about life, he   ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  always give me a vibe when the tide get high, Jah will never let  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  me fall by the wayside.always heal my sorrow for a brighter       ▌ ░ ▐

 ▌ ░ ▐  "Jammin Straight from Yard" is a storming Hip Hop dub fusion      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  with U Brown effortlessly chanting, "hip hop inna rub a dub       ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  style, I want the world to know we versatile." The bass is a      ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  fluid boom, sounding like it was sampled from an old Charlie      ▌ ░ ▐

 ▌ ░ ▐  originated on an old skool Blue Note or Impulse album.( The drum  ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  sound on the Elvin Jones and Richard Davis Impulse label album    ▌ ░ ▐

 ▌ ░ ▐  "Youths Take it Easy" features a beautiful plaintive lyric and    ▌ ░ ▐
 ▌ ░ ▐  melody from the man Alton Ellis, and it will be particularly      ▌ ░ ▐
