JAMAICAN DUB 🦁 THE CIRCLE — Slow One Drop Roots Dub | inspired by 1976 | 1 Hour Instrumental

🇯🇲🦁 JAMAICAN DUB — THE CIRCLE Nonlinear Kingston Experiments Vol.113 Slow one drop roots dub · inspired by 1976 Eight men in a yard behind the houses, banana leaves overhead, a stack of cabinets against the wall. One sits at the centre on a low stool, hands folded, a tall wooden drum standing beside him. The others are around him with their arms crossed, waiting. Everyone is looking at the camera and nobody is playing yet. This one is built on the one drop — the first beat left empty, kick and snare arriving together on the third. Hand drums are doubled over the kit throughout, and almost everything is thrown into long delay. Slower and deeper than the last few volumes. 🎚️ TRACKLIST — I.

Act II has the most space in it. Act IV is the heaviest on echo. ⚡ HYPE THIS VOLUME Vol.111 was built on the rockers pattern; this one goes to the one drop. If you have a preference between them, say which in the comments — it helps the algorithm find listeners who know the difference, and it tells me where to take Vol.114. 📻 24/7 LIVE ROOTS DUB RADIO runs around the clock on this channel.
