Speaking of Dub (the real kind), just over one year ago the music world lost one of its
pioneers in the realm of dub and roots. Vivian "
Yabby You" Jackson produced some of the most hard driving reggae ever released. RIP.

So the French do lip dub too? Sometimes it's
good and fun (starring employees of the W9 TV channel) and sometimes
bad and corny (starring many French political celebrities from president Sarkozy's party, such as the minister of economic affairs and the secretary of state for sports).

For over a decade,
reclusive Berliners Mark Ernestus and Moritz von Oswald have published a distinctive style of minimalist techno through
Basic Channel and several other labels based out of
their record store. In 1996, they expanded into dub with
Burial Mix, a series of 10"s featuring long-lost reggae vocalists. (They've also begun reissuing out-of-print releases by NYC's
Wackies.) Although their vinyl-centric releases have always been relatively underground, they may soon be reaching a wider audience thanks to a domestic (US) release of their latest CD comp by
Asphodel. Also see the latest issue of
The Wire for a new quasi-interview.
