King Tubby produced a few Skatalites dub albums which are
well worth seeking out.

king tubbys meets rockers uptown

dark and moody classic dub, king tubby dubs up tracks from
rockers (augustus pablo's own label), essential, buy this
first

king tubby meets aggrovators at dub station

excellent and expansive collection, this leans more toward
good vibes and sweet melodies, highly recommended, it's a
freaking goldmine

i've said it before, and i'll say it again, black uhuru -

imhotep. their reggae is pretty good too.

just listened to it again. it really is über sweet. i can't
believe it was released in 2001, don't let the date fool
you, it sounds a lot older than that, and the tracks are
basically remixes of older black uhuru.

excellent site, rad smiles.

some more good ones:

culture - culture in dub

scientist meets the space invaders

more recent release by the scientist: scientist dubs culture
into a parallel universe - my cd inlay has an excellent
history of how the dub recording process originated in
jamaica among king tubby and the boys.

Aquarius - Aquarius

Surfacing again for the best part of five years after
this repressing originally caused an almighty flurry.
Originals of this album sell at auction for many hundreds,
and with good reason. its limber, skeletal band arrangements
took up the loose but tight jams of the Meters and applied
it to emergent reggae dub stylings, and this has many decent
claims to be the first real album length dub project.
Comprising most of the Chin brothers stellar consorts, dubs
here to Dennis Brown's amazing Carole King cover of 'Its too
late' as 'Oily', Augustus Pablo, Alton Ellis and much more.
Whilst sound quality is a touch shaky, the music is raw and
awesome enough in its own right to stand rigorous correction
through home systems. Historical, but so relevant, still.

Intrusion Reflection

The Echospace label returns with another endlessly deep
transmission from the vaults, emerging here with some
vintage material culled from old tapes recently discovered
by label head Steve Hitchell from mysterious artist
"Intrusion".
'Intrusion dub' is simply classic Echospace, with all the
requisite elements of sonorous bass, inpenetrable analog
crackle and well crafted techno and house rhythms filtered
through the minds of two dub souls.
Steve Hitchell's cv313 mix is a muted affair, boiling the
track down to a glowing residue of padded kicks and vinyl
static, while the Phase90 reshape is our favourite cut here,
adding some expertly developed techno percussion to produce
a narcotic and deadly club number that will destroy anyone
lucky enough to hear it played out on a proper system.
The final side winds things down into ambient bliss in
classic deepchord/echospace fashion, clearing the air for
what will no doubt follow with the next installment from
this excellent label.

DISRUPT - Foundation Bit

Probably the most talked-about BASS transmission of
recent months (bar the forthcoming Burial and Pinch albums,
of course) - the long awaited debut album from Disrupt is
with us and is doing things to our woofers we didn't think
quite possible. Make no mistake - this is just about the
best appropriation of Jamaican dub and 8-bit dancehall
you'll likely hear this year - with a slow paced skank and a
filthy, uber-bassy production style that has more in common
with king Tubby, Black Art and, for that matter, black magic
than with any half-arsed wobble presets and lazy dubplates
you just might have picked up these last twelve months. Once
inside Disrupt's rugged echo-chamber you'll find yourself
immersed in a heady, narcotic cloud of smoke, moved by
staggered delays, endless reverberations and a tranquilizing
cluster of distant instruments and digital detritus all
colluding to lull you in and f*ck with your mind good and
proper. This is music designed for complete and utter
sensory intoxication, tweaked and honed for intense
stupefied skanking - and is quite simply one of the most
beautifully heavy, chemically enhanced albums you'll hear
this year
