Press Reviews Sleek, stripped-down breakbeats you can bob your head to. Lazy 303 lines and reverb-tinged drums give down-tempo productions a space-age feel, while shuffling Drum 'n' Bass combines fuzz-drenched drums, jazzy keyboards, and Middle Eastern chanting.(Listen.com ) A menacing diversity of electronic beat organization. Breakbeat, jungle and Drum'n'bass tracks play with a great sense of production quality and exquisite sample use. (Audiogalaxy) Holy Smoke sounds as though it’s come direct from London SE1, and more particularly from the studio of the mighty Digidub himself. Believe me, this is a compliment.(the New Underground) I heard so much stuff on mp3 called 'reggae' or 'dub' that weren't nothing of the kind on closer examination, that I admit to a fair degree of scepticism on my part as I clicked the play button on "Holy Smoke" (whatever CAN they mean, uhh?). But my fears were soon dispelled. (Hang on, track just ended, I need to crank it up again - I can't write de review without de music, can I?) "This should be played at high volume, preferably in a residential area ...(dub-a-dub-a)". Personally I would rather have a choice about when I want to listen to my jizzy jazz 'n stuff. Amazing how one man's freedom is another man's fascist government, aint it? Reminds me of all those grunge bands who want to kill their parents, in a few years time they'll be having their own kids who will want to kill them even more for being such nihilistic twits while they were trying to grow up and understand what's going on. But wait a minute, let's not get too heavy about it... It's only rock 'n' roll after all (played backwards in the case of the reggae which started off the spark of the dub craze) and let's face it, the whole trip was built out of alienation of one kind or another. Yeah kids, it's really true. Way back in the 1950's before your conquering lion of the tribe of cosmic sun-eye (yours truly, Childe Roland at your service) was even burst out of his mother's tomb (in the side of the holy mountain) the earth was invaded by aliens from Mars and other places even further out. Or so they thought. Actually, it was invaded by aliens of truth. Because truth then - and now - was pretty alien to the citizens here. The place needed shaking up. It's still shaking now. They shook to Elvis, they shook to the Beatles, they shook to the A-bomb tests and the iron curtain of mother's old suspenders hanging in the closet. Then they shook to blues and funk and jazz and soul, and... reggae, then there wuz reggae! Which became dub and then sort of stomped around a bit and sighed and cried (especially when Marley died) and eventually transmuted and rebooted into something like what we have here. This really IS a dub masterpiece from Loop Collective. The bass line that does the biz down-under and the slippy-sloppy rim shots and sliced off hot-dog cymbal sideways wooshes that remove yer head from your shoulders - but nicely man, and easy does it, in the true spirit of dub music fantastique. Ah yes, the history lesson. Where was I and I? Then disco and punk and, ummm, modern romantic? Oh yeah, and acid house and trippy ambient chill-out for when the sardines got too much like, well, sardines. Then, ummm, Mp3 and multiple genre changes later, attempting the big, big transmutation from big brother computer terminal, brother. And all that jazz. And what about the alien-ation nation? Look at it this way, you have one ALIEN. Then you add some AT-ION. That's right, see, the ION as you will doubtless be aware, is the one that 'goes' (well get a dictionary then, soul sucker - you might learn something). This is the thing about aliens, they come and they go, where they are, no one knows. Who will know tomorrow, o children on the highways and bi-ways of the peripherals of my conscious dreaming? To summarise once more, GOING is where the aliens are AT. But where that is, you can't ever know, dig? to put it in another language, SOLID MOTION is where it's at. It may look like a stone, but it has wings on when you're not looking. You keep on asking me (nay, telling me, I say) "what's the point?" And I keep saying that THE POINT IS MOVING. And still you don't get it, do you? Life goes Om and Om. Ommo. Don't forget the Loop Collective. (Me, I want the Infinite Individuals - get it? - on this planet, NOW!) what the hell, listen to some rub a dub! Or MAKE ME SOME COFFEE and do something useful for a change (sigh...).
