I started listening to dub in 1998 at the age of 15. First I saw on Polsat 2 video clip to "Dance Of Life" by Zion Train" later I bought cassette "Siren" by this group. In 2001 I bought the cassette "Homegrown Fantasy" also by Zion Train. In 2003 when I was in high school I bought cassettes of King Tubby "Official Dub/Shining Dub" and Lee Scratch Perry "Black Ark in Dub". As I listened to these tunes on a crowded hot June bus I got shivers on my cheeks. I was in awe that someone could do such wonders with bass and melody.
And how is dub in our difficult times? Well, it turns out quite well. There is a great Polish netlabel Paproota releasing really fat compilations since 2010. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdckDe3eH3c...
