    AJ List & music lovers,

    another late night appreciatin' of some new things I just picked up:

    Hi Fidelity Dub Sessions Chapter 3 (on Guidance )
    Hot DAMN! This compilation is 3 times dope through and through. All the
    beats are rough and rugged... with a nice hip hop - influenced aesthetic
    running throughout.

    Noiseshaper - The Only Redeemer on Quango
    Four Ill dub mixes of this most beautiful homage to Music, the only
    redeemer. the Needs remix has a twinge of 2-step before it dives deep into
    the dub house breakbeat workout ... and the cottonbelly remix is fly too
    ... (so's the cottonbelly track on the Guidance comp, dated '94 ?? how
    come I never heard it before ??? hot diggity! )

    There are a few more recent joints which have also dropped some heavy dub
    science, such as the Faze Action remix of Femi Kuti, and the Soha track
    that has that crazy house-speed dancehall beat...

    given all these fresh flavors, I put it out to you all, that this sound is
    a fresh direction which, though not new, is coming on strong right now!

    Move aside, west london, make way fi de Dub Riddim Dance Grooves ! Yes I!

    Nat-ty-Dred
