DUB TROPICO

Um coletivo de apaixonados por musica! Tendo como integrante o dj britânico Relic radicado no Rio de Janeiro. Que viveu anteriormente no Quênia, onde fez parte de um coletivo chamado Umojah Soundsytem, fundador do primeiro autêntico sistema de som reggae na África Oriental. Ele toca discos de vinil puros de reggae, roots e dubmusic nos principais festivais e eventos. Sua coleção de vinis é o resultado de 25 anos de pesquisa, colecionando enormes raridades e pedras.

Junto com a equipe Dub Tropico, DJ Relic também colabora para produzindo faixas musicais. Em maio deste ano teve destaque no “Bourbon Festival Paraty” tocando para um público de 20.000 pessoas em um set que chamou muita atenção no Brasil.

Dub Tropico também tocou o set de aquecimento para o show da lenda do reggae jamaicano U-Roy no Rio de Janeiro. E durante a pandemia participou de festivais on line inclusive do festival indiano “Suns Of Dub”.

This is a big one. I both dreaded and welcomed his death. He was a man in pain, and some ways abandoned by the very Music Industry he gave so much. Without doubt, Reggaes’ most underrated Singer, Junior Byles. Fever for me, although a cover, is one of the rawest Reggae tracks ever made. Haunting vocals and The drums and bass on it, as produced by Lee Scratch Perry are some of the heaviest you will ever hear on a Soundsystem. The epitome of balance of sweet vocals and heavy instrumental. My favourite style of reggae music. Check Fade Away and Curly Locks for their enlightened lyrics too. Real Roots man who carried Jah Heavy Load until the end. You earned your Rest in Power. 🙏🔥

******Out today!!! Our new, track Rise and Step. ***** Come check it on Spotify, SoundCloud and other platforms very soon! 🔥🔥🔥⚡️ Big up @grayssoker_accordion @gabrielruymusic @stephan_maass_percussion @juan.o.mago on the track Big skanking Soundsystem tune this one 🎶

May 14th we release Rise and Step, is definitely NOT an average Steppers or Dub Track. It’s a Pied Piper’s call for mass skanking as one in the dance. It features a very unusual instrument called an Acordina (a cross between the sound of an accordian and the playability of a melodica, Augustus Pablo style), played by France’s @grayssoker_accordion who’s been storming through Europe with his big Electronic Accordion concerts and arsenal of foot pedals.

Next up, adding a likkle more spice to the pot is Germany’s @stephan_maass_percussion who’s known for using a room full of percussion instruments. He uses everything from palm leaves and plastic hoses to Brazilian and African percussion instruments to create new sounds and atmosphere.

Also we have Brazil’s @gabrielruymusic who adds the bass guitar.
Mixed down at @39d.studios by @juan.o.mago in Rio de Janeiro and finally mastered by @precisemastering for pristine sound.
Video by @ancestral_intelligence 🔥🔥

*****New Release May 14th!!!!**** Rise and Step is definitely NOT your average Steppers or Dub Track! It’s a Pied Piper’s call for mass skanking in the dance, all moving as one to the bassline. It features a very unusual instrument called an Acordina (a cross between the sound of an accordian and the playability of a melodica, Augustus Pablo style), played by France’s @grayssoker_accordion who has been storming through Europe with his big Electronic Accordion concerts and arsenal of foot pedals! Next up, adding more spice to the pot is Germany’s @stephan_maass_percussion who is known for using a room full of percussion instruments, some of which you’ve never seen before in your life! He uses everything from palm leaves and plastic hoses to Brazilian and African percussion instruments to create new sounds and atmosphere that make this track really pop! Also we have Brazil’s @gabrielruymusic who adds the bass guitar and a really nice little surprise blues guitar solo at the end. All mixed down at 39d Studios in Rio de Janeiro by the one and only @juan.o.mago
Rise and Step was made for Soundsystem vibes, Steppers style but with some real surprises, Check it May 14th! 🔥🔥🔥

Greetings! Our vinyl Release, One Time has now nearly sold out in most record shops!! But! You can still get copies though on our Bandcamp site and this Friday May 2nd is Bandcamp Friday which means that all your payment goes directly to us the artists. Come Support! Bless up ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️

Dica literária: A segunda edição da série “No Man Is An Island” do @momanisthetakeover chega com um guia detalhado sobre prensagens raras do selo jamaicano.
O livro, intitulado “No Man Is An Island (Volume 2): A Guide To More Choice Studio One Pressings”, é assinado por Morgan “Moman” Nixon e analisa 171 faixas essenciais do catálogo do Studio One.

A obra é uma continuação do primeiro volume, lançado em 2020, e já está disponível página do Bandcamp da gravadora Heavenly Recordings e também no link no perfil do Morgan
Fundado em 1954 por Clement “Coxsone” Dodd, o Studio One foi um dos pilares da música jamaicana, abrigando gêneros como reggae, dub, dancehall e ska. Artistas como Bob Marley & The Wailers, Lee “Scratch” Perry e King Jammy gravaram parte de suas carreiras no selo, consolidando-o como uma referência cultural.
O livro de Nixon não apenas explora a história do Studio One, mas também oferece uma visão aprofundada sobre as prensagens mais valiosas e raras do selo. Para entusiastas da música jamaicana, a obra promete ser um recurso indispensável! #morgannixon #studioone #nomanisanisland #reggae #dub 💚❤️💛
