Dubtember 30 - We Keep Pushing the Dub (DUB...DUB...DUB...DUB...DUB...)

 

Originating from Wellington, New Zealand, The Black Seeds are a hard working, hard playing Roots band with a sound that fuses infectious grooves & melodies with undiluted Dancehall music. Led by the vocals of Barnaby Weir & Daniel Weetman at its core, The Black Seeds music is a boundary-crossing sound fusion of big-beat funk, Dub, soul, mixed with vintage Roots-reggae. Their 8-piece live show is legendary, bringing raw energy & good vibes wherever they play. 

The Black Seeds released their debut album Keep On Pushing in 2001. Despite a tiny marketing budget the album reached platinum sales in New Zealand, as well as being successfully released in Australia through Shock Records.

But before we give up the Dub for the time being & move on to other things, it is my pleasure to sign off with, for your viewing edification, the documentary Dub Echoes, a film by Bruno Natal
It is perhaps the definitive documentary of Dub music from its Jamaican roots to Electronic music worldwide.
