A New Chapter of Dub Aswad

“the strongest dub album of several that were produced during the group’s career. A New Chapter of Dub was produced by Aswad in collaboration with the up-and-coming dubmeister Mikey Dread, whose work as a radio DJ had made him a household name among London’s West Indian expatriate population even before he began establishing himself as a top studio producer. A New Chapter of Dub finds him digging deep into the traditional bag of dubwise production tricks, using echo, drop-out, and delay in ways that had been pioneered by King Tubby, but applying those effects in a wanton and sometimes exaggerated way in a manner more reminiscent of Lee “Scratch” Perry, an approach that sometimes anticipated developments that would emerge as much as a decade later. Highly recommended.” - Rick Anderson, AllMusic
