Second album under the name Liquid Stranger for the prolific producer from Arizona (USA) Martin Stääf. After a first full album release in year 2007 and some releases with this scene name and a multitude of productions with other aliases, Liquid Stranger is coming back for "The Intergalactic Slapstick" on the label Interchill Records.
On this new album, the producer propose a dub music which is very own and composed of various influences. The sound of the record is before all inna psychedelic dub style. A very interesting sound. To this sound, Liquid Stranger has added in a very good way some influences from East Europe such as gipsy music or from India and tones from the native Indians of North America. Very nice.
Also, he added some drops of dubstep (but not some much, just enough). By this fact, the production varies and waves between a electro-dub chill-out and powerful tracks in the limit of drum and bass with a bit of stepper to spice the sound.
More, it appears three different singers too: Brother Culture for two pieces of pur electro rub-a-dub style, Warrior Queen for a powerful "Mutants" inna dubstep style (à la Undubground) and Deeyah for a song "goastep".
The result is a album very unique which could touch people who are more oriented electro music inna dub style.

a new life-style net store
The idea of Elfe-shop is to propose a distribution for independent artists, comics drawers, musicians or clothes makers. A kind of alternative to the big and main distribution systems. In fact, you could find on the site records, books, post card as clothes or bags. With a classification by type or by makers (under the name "manufacturers" for this last one).
All the products presented on the shop are made with an ideology of fair-trade, recycling and/or natural process.
The store is based in Finland but distributes products through European Union. In fact, Elfe-shop is proposed in different languages (English, French, Spanish and Finnish) and currencies (Euro and UK pound).

After a powerful first volume on the netlabel French Dub Releases, Hatman is coming back with his Showcase for a so interesting volume 2 still on the netlabel based in Bordeaux.
Remember, in beginning of this year, in January, we presented a release proposed by the French dub producer Hatman. Inna a stepper style, he realised a net release called "Dub to dub Showcase Vol.1". And this name would called some continuations: who says "vol.1", says at least "vol.2". This volume 2 is coming this autumn (and, nice present, for my Birthday... thank Hatman).
In opposite of the first volume which was more for sound system with a steady rhythmic, this new release is produced in a style and feeling much more roots. An approach of dub music, like he said by himself in an interview on the FDR website, more in destination of singers. About this release, he presents a succession of riddim with their dub versions with this idea.
The result is a release which is instrumentally richer than the previous. Important to note also the participation of I-Tist at the bongos. The percussions re-enforce the roots side of the production and are ideally well placed.
Of course, as the other releases of the net label, Dub to Dub Showcase Vol.2 is proposed under a Creative Commons license in free download on the FDR website.

My name is Laurent Chambon.
I am French but I live in Finland since 5 years ago about.
I am founder and member of dub-a-delik in Tampere.
The goal of this association is to organize some dub happenings in the city of Tampere. We propose mainly dj's events, but also Finnish dub band such as Dreadlock Tales, Kataja Sound, Salaneuvosto in live session. We hope, in a close futur, to propose for foreign dub bands in Finland.
And more, I like discover every time new bands and others producers in dub music. This is another reason why I created this page.
A little more of one year ago, I create the website dub-connection too. The goal of this website is to support the outernational dub music mainly via a blog, a wiki and a forum. The website propose also different other services such as an event calendar or an internet search optimized for dub music.
