Hatman - Dub to Dub Showcase Vol.2 ∞
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.

Free such as air ∞
At the occasion of the Netaudio Festival this week-end in Berlin, the net label LCL changes name and becomes LCL. In fact, a new identity is given to the net label launched and run by the French dub producer Volfoniq.
So, the acronym stays. The activities don't change: electro dub net label and cultural events organizer. But instead of "Les Critaux Liquident" the name become "Libre Comme L'air".
This new designation changes radically the design of the website. This one get a new and very beautiful layout for the container side and become also richer in contain: more details about the artists and the releases are proposed, a full dual language version in English and French is presented for a better Internationalisation, a player with all the releases, a full page of links with the dub-connection between the others and of course the catalogue of the net label with: Arrogalla, Azzurro, Bo Marley, Buguinha Dub, Calm, Disrupt, Dr Dub, Kou Chou Ching, Metastaz, Solo Banton, Tribuman, Volatil and Volfoniq.
To visit the new website and (re)discover the productions of LCL, click on http://www.lclweb.org. And don't search any more your favorite artits, they are "libre comme l'air".

When Europe sucks! ∞
Sad news today.
The live session of the dub producer Dubosmium at the Netaudio Festival in Berlin is canceled.
The concert was planned this Thursday on the Experimental Floor of the festival.
http://www.netaudioberlin.de
The
thing we would like to denounce is the reason of this cancellation.
Moulay Abdellah Hassak a.k.a Dubosmium is a producer for Morocco. It
was a chance for him to come to present his music in Germany.
Unfortunately it's look like only the music is outhernational and
nowadays the borders are close. It was for that Dubosmium needed a visa
to come to play in Europe: Visa refused by the Germany's embassy in Rabat.
By
the fact Moulay is from North Africa, he can not present his music in
concert-live in Europe. We never know, Moulay could be a dangerous
terrorist. Sad reality of the World.
And more, he was not coming in
Europe for some economical reason, to make money and sell some
products: No, he was coming to play music. So strange and weird for the
political leaders who think Capital and money are primordial and the
base of the live.
The dub-connection wants to support Moulay but
also all our brother around the World by this message. With a big think
to Arabic people who has a jeered image by the Occidental media
propaganda as TV, news papers or cinema (thank you Mr Murdoch).

Live Short Cuts ∞
After more of 400 concerts around Europe and 5 albums studio, the French duet Brain Damage presents in this end of September its first live production. A session recorded this last summer on the home city of the band, Saint-Etienne: the city of the green angels and other hot cauldron. Date which concludes the tour following the last studio album: Short Cuts. Album published on March 2008 (read review).
By this fact, the majority of the songs presented on the record are from the 2 last album studio. So Short Cut, a production more dub influenced that purely inna dub style, and the excellent "Spoken dub Manifesto vol.1", the album inna a electro-dub-poetry style which marks the evolution of Brain Damage to its actual style.
But the band has know to add the dub side (a bit missing) on the live version. Actually, this live production ending by some "classic" song of the band. Titles from the older publications such as "Ashes to Ashes - Dub to Dub" and "Always Greener (On the Other Side)". Before a final explosion with "Brain Booster", track from the first maxi of the Brain Damage.
So, an album for all the fan of Brain Damage (like me) even we have already the full collection.
