I can’t
let this one pass without blogging about it. On a few occasions now I’ve used
everythingsgonegreen to highlight some of the exceptional dub and roots music coming
out of mainland Europe, and this name-your-price Bandcamp release is yet
another prime example of that.
Bass
Culture Players is a collective of dub devotees operating out of Madrid, Spain,
and the Foundation EP contains four top notch tracks, plus a (dub) version for each.
It features several different vocalists and the music itself is an infectious
blend of classic roots and contemporary dub.
It’s
difficult to identify a favourite track on the EP but I have to say that Payoh
Soul Rebel’s vocal on opener ‘Forgiveness’ is a stand-out, and his voice sounds
a little bit like the perfect hybrid of Lee Perry and Bob Marley himself. Truly wonderful stuff.

Foundation EP was released last week, grab a copy by clicking on the link
