Description
King Tubby and Bunny ‘Striker’ Lee sit at the very heart of dub music’s creation, and Dub From The Roots stands as one of the earliest and most important documents of that moment. Drawing on Lee’s formidable catalogue of rhythms and Tubby’s unmatched technical skill, these mixes helped establish the blueprint for dub: bass and drums pushed forward, vocals dropped in and out, and the studio transformed into an instrument in its own right.
Emerging from Tubby’s homemade setup at his Dromilly Avenue home, these versions capture a period when experimentation was driven by instinct, curiosity and necessity. What began as a studio accident quickly evolved into a radical new approach, with Tubby reshaping familiar recordings into spacious, echo-laden forms that rewired how reggae could sound.
Dub From The Roots was among the first long-playing releases to carry King Tubby’s name, and among the first to properly credit the musicians behind the rhythms. A foundational release from Jamaican Recordings, it remains a vital chapter in the story of dub’s origins.
