Mind bending organic dub from one of the new generation of dub masters. Blackbeard's dub is the freshest sound I've heard in a while.

I already own most of Son House's music on vinyl and cds but I couldn't resist this remastered edition of his 1965 sessions. Son House was a good friend and mentor to Robert Johnson and arguably a more intense performer than Robert himself. His vocals are amazing.

Future Sound of Russia is the rare collection of electronic indie music that lives up to the pre-release hype of the record label. Part of the Rykodisk public relations blurb on this album is as follows:

Quote:

Future Sound of Russia is the best of the best of the contemporary Moscow and St. Petersburg scenes. If you’re young and hip in Russia right now, this is what you’re into. If you want to be ahead of the curve here in America, this is what you’re about to be into.

Future Sound of Russia is — Indie dance-rock. Electro club-monsters. Italo-disco grooves. Shoe-gazer distortion worthy of My Bloody Valentine. Jangly pop-hooks that recall the likes of Suede. And indie-electro-dance numbers that rival the best of The Faint or The Rapture. Future Sound of Russia is a compilation of 18 of the most exciting and most awesome, from festival headliners to the newest and edgiest underground bands.

This album is a big bundle of prime selections and one of the best dance albums I've purchased in years.

I'm sold on I Wah Dub. I want to hear that for sure. Have you ever checked out Dubmatix from Canada who peddle an 'Electro Dub' sound with the emphasis on rich, deep bass lines and solid beats.
