    █ █                Brown. He was only 16 when he started    █ █
    █ █                his career and mixed numerous tracks for █ █
    █ █                several Jamaican producers. He became    █ █
    █ █                one of the household names in the dub    █ █
    █ █                reggae world and often considered the    █ █
    █ █                last of the great Jamaican dub mixers.   █ █
    █ █                In the early 80s Greensleeves put out    █ █
    █ █                some classic Scientist dub sets and this █ █
    █ █                one comes from 1981 and features the     █ █
    █ █                Roots Radics as musicians and Junjo      █ █
    █ █                Lawes as producer. In fact it was the    █ █
    █ █                third Scientist/Lawes album and it used  █ █
    █ █                the world of zombies, werewolves, voodoo █ █
    █ █                and other horror imagery for the sleeve, █ █
    █ █                intro's and titles. Producer Junjo Lawes █ █
    █ █                could pick out of dozens of great vocal  █ █
    █ █                tunes and for this set he concentrated   █ █
    █ █                on The Wailing Souls, Michael Prophet    █ █
    █ █                and Johnny Osbourne.                     █ █

    █ █                from innovator King Tubby in the late    █ █
    █ █                '70s, Scientist began mixing his own     █ █
    █ █                sessions, coming up with a more          █ █
    █ █                wide-ranging and effects-riddled sound   █ █
    █ █                than that of his mentor. One of a        █ █
    █ █                handful of choice Scientist albums on    █ █
    █ █                the Greensleeves label, Rids the World   █ █
    █ █                of the Curse of the Vampires (1981) not  █ █

    █ █                varied approach, but clocks in as one of █ █
    █ █                his best outings. While Scientist heeds  █ █
    █ █                Tubby's minimalist call with "strictly   █ █
    █ █                drum and bass" cuts like "Night of the   █ █
    █ █                Living Dead" -- spotlighting tightly     █ █

    █ █                mix of horns and bubbly keyboards on     █ █
    █ █                "The Mummy's Shroud" (as hard as it is   █ █
    █ █                to imagine sunshine with a ghoulish      █ █
    █ █                title such as this). Even without horns, █ █
    █ █                Scientist keeps things lively with       █ █
    █ █                plenty of reverb and echo-treated        █ █
    █ █                percussion, ghostly piano parts, video   █ █
    █ █                game sound effects, and other various    █ █
    █ █                wobbly interjections from the mixing     █ █
    █ █                board. Pointing to his originality,      █ █
    █ █                Scientist doesn't just apply a few       █ █
    █ █                tweaks here and there, but heavily       █ █
    █ █                reworks the basic tracks -- here laid    █ █
    █ █                down by the fine Roots Radics band and   █ █

    █ █                integrates his panoply of effects into   █ █
    █ █                the cut-up mix. And adding to the        █ █
