Weird October...One Thing Leads to Another

Whenever I do a Dubtember, Weird October always follows close on its heels. This month is just one thing leads to another. It is the skewed trajectory of my seething cerebral wandering. So Sound Systember leads to...

I have a bulging folder of Dub Overflow left from last month. I'm going to sprinkle some of it about this month & keep the rest for a rainy day.

While working on Zion Train & Universal Egg, I pulled up a few from Power Steppers, great proponents of Sound System culture, but I just had too much going on already with the Uni Egg, so they got set aside. However, their style is so unique that I'm starting out with Enforcement & Re- 

 



Power Steppers (sometimes known as the Powersteppers) began life as an offshoot of UK Dub pioneers Zion Train. Created by Colin Cod, Dave Tench, & Neil Perch, (the three principle members of Zion Train), as an outlet for the more manic, Sound System Dubs that they created.  Power Steppers released two albums, Bass Enforcement & Bass Re-enforcement along with several singles, as well as appearing on multiple compilations.

    1. Glad my psychic radar was working. Thought these two were the perfect run-out from last month & lead-in to Weird October. Always happy when we strike a harmonious chord, my brother.
