original pressing of the 1982 Jamaican reggae dub album produced by Michael Campbell: DREAD AT THE CONTROLS DUB SOUNDTRACK - JUNGLE SIGNAL (Dread At The Controls records)

MIKEY DREAD
DREAD AT THE CONTROLS
JUNGLE SIGNAL
featuring ROOTS RADICS

No one got more bass sound per groove in the history of reggae than Mikey Dread, Jamaican radio pioneer and artist extraordinaire. All of his DATC releases literally knock speakers from their moorings with more bass in the space than any other vinyl. These 1982 Jungle Signal dubs are mightier than King Kong and the foundation of so many of Mikey's best productions. Jahsome tracks one and all with particular highlights including the title track as well as "Rainbow Jungle", "Star Chaser", "Jungle Juice". "Dub Jungle", and other massive selections. Read Mikey's own description of dub below and let him better describe what Dread At The Controls dub is all about.

The ORIGINAL D.A.T.C. Music UK vinyl is in excellent, near mint condition with no skips, no scratches, no warp. The cover is also in near mint shape with no seam splits, no disc imprints.

"Drums and Bass forms the foundation upon which all (Jamaican) Reggae Riddims are built. The framework of an artform, now known as Dub. Drum and Bass Patterns vary from Artistes to Artistes, from Producer to Producer, Engineer to Engineer and without doubt from Musician to Musician whatever the studio may be. It's a Vibration which co-ordinates with the pulse of the Heartbeat, A Stimulant. "Dub" is a jargon which Reggaemakers use to describe the essence of the Roots. By adding "Wise" to Dub - 'DUB-WISE' the music takes on a new meaning - a shade of neverending Joy. After years of Analytic research and Laboratory studio mixing observation and operation I have discovered that this New Dimension of musical entity is accessible to everyone who is culturally and artistically aware that Dub is a cultural Expression of African oriented tribal Chants & Dances - the beauty of which is embodied in the pulsating Vibration of Musical Audio-Thermal Energy. Dub is a mix of a mix that you can't resist. Ribbit!!!, Flash It!!!" -MIKEY DREAD
