Dubwise sounds with a broad musical outlook. From ethio-jazz to full on funky grooves with a little afrobeat thrown in for good measure, all thrown into the blender, yet loving put back together on a solid foundation of Dub. This is global dub for the 21st century.
Promoting their highly acclaimed 4th album Addis To Omega, Dub Colossus are appearing here in their five-piece Soundsystem line up featuring the vocal talents of PJ Higgins and Mykaell S Riley.
Dub Colossus is the vision of Dubulah, aka Nick Page. Composer, guitarist, bass player, producer and programmer Nick has worked with a long list of notable artists and eccentrics. In 1990 he formed Trans-Global Underground with Tim Whelan and Hammid Man-Tu, with whom he produced-wrote-played six albums before leaving in 1997 to form Temple of Sound. Once Temple of Sound had run its course, Nick then decided to concentrate on his favourite alter ego, Dub Colossus. Having signed the project to Real World Records, Nick produced 3 albums for the label, beginning with A Town Called Addis, which was released in 2008, Addis Through The Looking Glass in 2011, and Dub Me Tender Vols 1 & 2 in 2012. Now with a new home at IRL, 2014 saw the release of Addis To Omega.
Addis To Omega takes the project further into explorations of the UK/Jamaican musical heritage, with a little sidestep into other avenues along the way. With guest performances from a wide variety of musicians, and recording sessions taking place in London, Barcelona, Paris and Tuva, this album delves into many a musical genre, but wraps it all into one dubby package. Bass Culture meets Dubadelica!
