HISTORY OF VIBRONICS
It was the joint discovery of the Aba-Shanti-I Sound System
and digitally sequenced music which first inspired Steve
Vibronics to try his hand at building dub tunes. A minimal
studio was put together at home during 1995 using the most
basic of equipment - a dilapidated 16 track mixer, reverb
and echo units, a couple of synths and a an Atari computer -
all mixed down onto cassette tape. One such tape was given
to Aba-Shanti-I after one of his legendary sessions at the
Arches in Vauxhall, London.
Discography
Studio
By the next dance it had been cut onto dubplate and
the sounds of Vibronics were unleashed in the form of the
thunderous 'Universal Love'. Soon after links were forged
with the Leeds Sound System Iration Steppas, this time with
the hard stepping 'Dub Discovery' rhythm. Since those early
days Vibronics have maintained strong links with Roots Sound
Systems. As anyone who has heard Aba, Iration, Shaka or
Tubbys will confirm that Dubs are best heard through 18"
scoop bass bins with the kind of volume and power that will
shake a building to it's foundations.
The Vibronics sound was introduced to UK dub pioneers Zion
Train in 1996, and so begun a fruitful relationship with
their 'Universal Egg' label which lasts to the present day.
Shortly after the release of the Egg Files in late 1997 (
'Awakenings' included on this compilation was the first
commercially released Vibronics track) came the offer to be
part of the Universal Egg Experience, a four week tour of
Europe taking in 22 dates across four countries.
On our return Deep Root ( a subsidiary of Universal
Egg dealing strictly with roots 7"s) unleashed 'Jah Light
Jah Love', a downbeat seppa with a bass line only heard
before on exclusive dubplate mixes played by the mighty Jah
Shaka Sound System. Following on from numerous dub-clashes
on the Universal Egg Experience tour, 1998 saw Vibronics
team up with dub activist Jah Free for the 'Outernational
Dub Convention' album. Jah Free introduced the conference
with a set of uplifting vocal tunes and Vibronics answered
with six raucous lo-fi bass-heavy dubplates.
The album set the scene for a year of live dub conventions
with Jah Free and MC Richi Rootz, taking in venues all over
the UK and Europe from Southend to Summerjam and London to
Lowlands. The Vibronics studio had by now evolved into the
Bathysphere - a joint venture with like minded associates in
Leicester where collaborations with Alpha and Omega, Wayne
McArthur, The Disciples, The Dub Factory, Jah Free and Zion
Train have now taken place. Despite a brief appearance on
'Jah Light Jah Love', the voice of Boney 'L' had yet to be
fully appreciated. Now armed with a microphone and a
computer based hard-disk recording system, more authentic
vocal recordings could be made - this resulted in the next
two 7" singles - 'On Jah Side' and 'Positive Direction'.
Both these tunes soldout within weeks of release, affirming
Boney's and Vibronics' place within the Roots scene. Live
shows expanded where possible to include Boney singing live
alongside Steve Vibronics, Richi Rootz and melodica player
Vitamin 'M'.
By now it was about time that Vibronics released an album in
their own right - enter 'Dub Italizer'. Working in the
Bathysphere studio with a G4 Mac, a Soundcraft Ghost mixer
and a host of equipment previously unimaginable, 'Dub
Italizer' was recorded in February 2000, taking the cream of
the crop of dubs tried and tested during the last two years
live sessions.........

Jah Free
Biography
Jah Free began his musical career with the band Tallowah,
who later evolved into Bushfire. The band built a solid
reputation on the European live circuit until their
premature demise. This was followed by the inauguration of
Jah Free Music, set up to record, design and release Jah
Free records. He released the favoured roots hit "Wicked
Can't Run", followed by the equally popular discomix,
"Lighting Clap". Both hits proved to be especially popular
on the sound system circuit, notably with Jah Shaka. Shaka's
sound is notorious for its reverberating bass levels, and
his releases and mixing works attracted the attention of
Zion Train, who enrolled Jah Free into the Universal Egg
collective. With the organization he released his debut,
Breaking Out, which featured his earlier releases and the
disparaging "Jacques Chirac'. Echoing the Motown Revues of
the 60s, he was enrolled as a compere on the Egg Experience
"97 tour, a showcase that featured various artists from the
label. In addition to his collaboration with Zion Train, he
also produced the classic "Rich Man" for Martin Campbell of
the Jah Works posse. At the close of 1997 he had completed
an exhaustive schedule, having worked with the Mad
Professor, Iration Steppas, Conscious Sounds, Armagideon
[sic] and the Belgium dub heroes Bong Messages. He embarked
on a series of sessions in 1998 with Vibronics that led to a
series of Live "Dub Conferences" across Europe, promoting
the duo's album. Jah Free also released his solo plea that
we should "Love One And Other".
