What do root canals, spinal injuries, and nagging bitchy girlfriends have in common? They are all intolerably painful, exceedingly difficult to manage; they show no mercy; and each can make you cry if you make a wrong move. The month of October finds resident DJ ChillWill spinning and slipping discs, and riding the Soma train until heading to the orthopedic chop shop later this month. For DS episode 48, we invite you to put a glide in your stride, a dip in your hip, and get on the mother ship for the Soma Dub Sessions. One of the greatest qualities of reggae music is its ability to deliver messages of despair, pain, grief, injustice, and alienation (as well as messages of hope, love, vision, gratitude, unity, appreciation) over an enjoyable, uplifting melodic structure and downtempo drum and bass grooves. Reggae can often serve as a healing music, delivering soothing rhythms and a meditative, chilled-out, introspective, calming experience. No other music is as universally loved on rainy days as well as sunny days for its effortless ability to enhance the joys and blues of the human experience, and to elevate the spirits of the listener. "One good thing about music - when it hits you feel no pain." - Bob Marley, Trenchtown Rock

For episode 40, the Dub Session takes a version excursion to "Funky" Kingston circa 1968-1974 It's the early 70's. Kingston, Jamaica was abuzz with funky reggae sounds, new electronic wah-wah guitar effects, moog keyboard synthesizers, and tons of funk-dafied reggae experimentation from King Tubby, Lee Perry, Bob Marley, Big Youth, The Skatalites, and the Pioneers. This episode takes a trip to Kingston's early 1970s funky reggae era, with some great reggae covers and versions of funk tunes. In addition, we have lots of home-grown Kingston hits, and a few U.S funksters like the Meters and the Ohio Players crossing over to provide funky reggae-ska-soul-funk versions. Episode 40 kicks off with "Some Good Old Funky Music" from the Meters, and then hits us from the top like a "Crazy MotherFunky" featuring two duos with Bob Marley and Lee Perry - "Caution" and "Shocks Amighty." The Funky Reggae era lasted in Kingston from 1968 until 1974. During this time, King Tubby and Lee Perry were the primary producers of funk and reggae crossover music. In 1973 Bob Marley and The Wailers' first Island records album "Catch a Fire" introduced reggae to a broader, global audience. After 1973, fans outside of Jamaica began their love affair with reggae, creating a new rush of interest and many new artists on Kingston scene. By 1975, "Funky Reggae" had given way to a new trend, the Rockers era (see Dub Session episode 28), heralding roots reggae artists and the new superstar - DJ vocalists and toasters.**** Also, now available - Dub Session T-Shirts and Caps.

Dub Session's Global Reggae Showcase Series continues with its third installment, Episode 34, Austrian Reggae:The Vienna Dub Masters. Since the mid 1990s, Vienna Austria has become a major hub for innovation, experimentation and production of dubtronic-style reggae. The Vienna sound is a distinct blend of drum and bass, acid jazz, electronic downtempo, and reggae music taking cues from the production techniques of King Tubby, Lee Perry, The Mad Professor and ColdCut. The defining characteristic of the Vienna sound is the confluence of electronic dance music and reggae dub-style production - yielded a unique "Vienna Scientists" style. This innovative mixing and blending of styles has introduced legions of new dance music fans to dub reggae; helped to popularize and revitalize the dub and reggae music industry; and has launched many new crossover reggae/dub/electronica artists. Many of the key figures in the Vienna dub scene can be found on the resident G-Stone label run by the legendary dub-electronica production team Kruder and Dorfmeister. There is also the famous weekly live event the "Dub Club" run by DJs, toasters, producers and bedroom rockers alike. This showcase of Vienna's key Dub Masters includes: Tosca, Dhizan and Kamien, Dr. Richard (Dorfmeister), The Peace Orchestra (Kruder), DJ DSL, Rockers Hi-Fi, Stereotyp, Walkner, Sofa Surfers, Markus Kienzl, Rodney Hunter, Megablast and The Vienna Scientists collective, as well as "Toasters" Farda P, Sugar B, and Tikimon to name a few. This week, the Dub Session heads to Central Europe to showcase the dub-tronic sounds of Vienna, Austria. Niceness!!

Dub Session's National Reggae Showcase Series brings you its first installation, the New Zealand Reggae Showcase, Vol. 1. Stardate: 1992. Place: Wellington, New Zealand. Status: there is a reggae buzz in the air. New Zealand's reggae scene is emerging and expanding. "The strange music booming and crackling from the speakers ripples the loose skin on your kneecaps. It sounds like the record is scratched beyond repair, but somehow it sounds good. It's the early 90s at Taki Rua Depot - a small theatre-cum-live music venue tucked down a seedy alley off Wellington's Cambridge Tce - and the Roots Foundation Sound System are educating the masses about roots, reggae, ragga, and dub. Like many in this smoky room I'm witnessing not only new music but a new way to experience music - in New Zealand, at least. "- Scott Kara,The NZ Herald. Over the last ten years, reggae roots and dub have grown to become mainstays on the national music scene thanks to bands like TrinityRoots, Salmonella Dub and Fat Freddy's Drop. These artists blend local styles, political culture, island roots, and global messages together seamlessly. Since 1992, the Dub and Reggae scene in New Zealand has blown up to super-size proportions. Just as Jamaica was abuzz with Reggae in the early 1970s, and England was the launchpad for the birth of global reggae in the late 70s/early 80s, New Zealand thriving, culturally significant and powerfully popular reggae culture is now emerging on the global scene. Like Musical Youth said in 1978 "we are the heavy heavy mothers yeah!" This is the spirit of the NZ Reggae scene today. This episode of the Dub Session explores the defining artists of the New Zealand reggae scene. New Zealand's music has a special, unique flavor - a distinct blend of reggae-funk-hip hop-Maori roots-dub styles that provides a fresh expression of roots culture, modern technology, and future vision.

Dub Session Podcast
This week the Dub Session celebrates the 30th year anniversary of the production of the movie "Rockers!" In 1976, the movie was produced and released in 1977. At the time the movie was released, the Rockers were a group of musicians, DJs, producers and Toasters in Jamaica who were expanding the boundaries of music production and innovation. Often, a hit song would be released on an "A" side like Dennis Brown's "Revolution" or Jacob Miller's "Pamela", or the infamous "Under Mi Sleng Ting" ryddym. Typically, records were released as singles, and on the A side was a vocal version of a popular song, and on the B side was a "dub" version. These popular songs were played in the clubs, or Dancehalls in Jamaica, and then the B sides were played. These B-sides, or dub versions, became templates for reggae-rappers known in Jamaica as "DJs" or "Toasters" to show off their craft. This was the time for Toasters and DJs to shine and show off their stuff. These DJs were Big Youth, I-Roy, U-Roy, U-Brown, Dillinger, Al Capone etc to name a few. The "Rockers" movement in Jamaica from 1972 to 1979 provided the genesis of modern hip hop music production and toasting/rapping, from Kingstown to Brooklyn, Brixton and beyond. In the same way that King Tubby and The Scientist became famous for re-producing hit songs into dub classics like "King Tubby Meets The Rockers Uptown", their counterparts Africaa Bambaataa and Grand Master Flash in the later 1970s were mixing up the birth of hip hop with their production wizardry and dubplates for rap artists. Jamaican star DJs and Toasters inspired the birth of the rap movement in Brooklyn in the late 1970s where disco hits' B-sides were played, and rappers from different "crews" would battle for style points and popularity just like their Jamaican cousins did at the Dance Halls in Kingston and Negril. So, this week we celebrate the Rockers and put together a showcase of classic Rockers artists, albums and some new-steppers and Rockers from New Zealand, the UK, Jamaica and Austria.

We kick things off this Holiday season with a special double-edition of the Dub Session. First off, we start with the Reggae Christmas Special, featuring a few new and well produced songs, along with some obscure 1970s Dub-DJ "Rockers" songs, and selections from ten different Christmas compilations. Our favorite of the bunch is the the John Holt/Ray I compilation titled "Natty I-Smas." As Ray I the Rockers DJ/Toaster says "'Tis the season for some Collie - tra la lalala lala la la."

Dub Session welcomes old-school roots reggae DJ D-Lux to the show for a stone cold groove of Brazilian roots and trip hop sounds. For nearly twenty years, DJ D-Lux has been both a DJ and student of Jamaican and Brazilian music. This mix blends Brazil's roots-funk protest music of the 70s with singer-songwriters of the 60s and mix masters of the present day for a unique, D-Lux sound.

This week the Dub Session brings you a special blend of dub classics, Reggae music, progressive dub and some fresh music from John Brown's Body, The Bad Brains, and Jem. Some people have asked - how do you pronounce the name of your podcast? It sounds Cajun, like "on-yon" or "cay-jun." Sounds like "Sean." Hence the pronunciation "Dub - Ses - Sean" For inspiration, we bring you a special appearance by Melissa n Sean on the last track "Yahoo Unky Will." We're podcasting in a family-man Carlton Barrett style with the Tuna Pilot kids.
