How great to have King Tubby as a mentor though.
Don't forget to breath.

It's pretty awesome how there is one aux send, and he is just riding up two returns with his left hand.... man, it sounds so deep, but it is just 6 faders.... seeing that kicked my ass.

what blew me away was how smooth and deliberate his motions were. the console was totally an instrument in his hands.

rasta-bot.

Jammy is definitely awesome. What's funny though is that just a couple years later, some of his studio musicians came up with the song 'Under Me Sleng Teng,' which is just a preset drum pattern on a Casio keyboard and some simple keyboard lines, really a dumb song.

The song was such a huge hit that it started off the 'digital' sound, and all the great live studio groups were put out of work as keyboard-driven songs took over. There's a DVD with Jammy saying how pissed he was that he had 50+ unreleased live group tracks that were suddenly out of fashion because the digital sound had taken over. Weird, huh?

Must've been great to learn the art of dubbing from Tubby.

I am really fascinated by dub music and have pulled off some dub delays on a few drum breaks on things I have recorded (ran the Memory Man off an aux) but it was more of a "Walking on the Moon" kinda whitewashed dub rip off. :wink:

I have been thinking of digging through a bunch of my recordings and trying to make some dub remixes. The only problem is though I like dub, I can't stand being around dub fans cause I hate the smell of weed.
