about

"Linval Presents Dub Landing Vol. 1" is the only authorized reissue of the all-time dub classic, "Dub Landing," originally released by Starlight Records in 1981. This reissue is a treasure trove for reggae enthusiasts, as it is now matched with a second disc of original vocal versions of the Linval Thompson productions. This dual offering not only preserves the legacy of the original release but also enriches it with additional context and depth, showcasing the vocal talents that laid the groundwork for these iconic dub tracks.

The first disc, a reissue of the original "Dub Landing," is a masterclass in dub music, characterized by its heavy basslines, echo-laden effects, and hypnotic rhythms. Each track is a testament to Linval Thompson's visionary production skills and his ability to create soundscapes that are both immersive and groundbreaking. The album's meticulous engineering and innovative use of studio techniques highlight the transformative power of dub, turning simple rhythms into complex, layered compositions that resonate deeply with listeners.

The second disc, featuring the original vocal versions, adds a new dimension to the "Dub Landing" experience. These tracks allow listeners to hear the foundation upon which the dub versions were built, offering a fuller appreciation of Linval Thompson's artistry. The vocal performances are raw and powerful, providing a perfect complement to the the dub versions.

Artlessly Falling
by Mary Halvorson's Code Girl

supported by 4 fans who also own “Linval Presents Dub Landing Vol. 1”

Mary Halvorson is a genius composer and guitarist who has developed her own musical language, and with Code Girl she has incorporated poetry into that language. Incredible compositions and lyricism (each track is a different kind of poem). Halvorson's playing is as great as usual, and all the other members of the band sound great. Robert Wyatt's singing in particular works extremely well in the tracks he's featured. Highly, highly recommend. rat
