From their earliest days on the streets of Ladbroke Grove in London, Killing Joke were heavily influenced by the heavy sounds and rhythms of the Dub scene. This 10 track second volume features killer Dub versions and mixes of some of the band's most famous tracks. From the producer: 'These days I’m listening mainly to Ambient, film soundtracks, Free Jazz and Dub. What all these sub genres share is a lot of space and abstraction within the music. Creating new music from reassembling old music is nothing new and is something great artists have been doing for millennium. From Keith Richards to King Tubby, from Bach to Sleaford Mods, from The Beatles to The Bug. There is continuity and legacy within the madness. The bass takes over as lead instrument, the subsonic throb vibrates your very bones, realigning and calibrating your physical body into harmony with the cosmos. Melodies are replaced with teased cuts and vague suggestions and vibes. The drums and percussion are drenched in delay and reverb, creating three dimensional para-rhythms and holographic counterpoints that fractalize your mind's perception into a million shards, each a parallel universe, simultaneously stimulating your pleasure cortex. Guitars and Keyboards cut through the midrange. Mangled, phased and dubbed into oblivion. There's subversive philosophy behind dub too. It’s irreverent, arrogant and self serving, each cut is a little pirate ship, floating across the corporate oceans, plundering and reappropriating the wild uncontrollable, unstoppable urge to create and slay sacred cows upon the alter of the church of 'Now'. Dub and trance can certainly assist and alchemise our minds into a more cosmic harmonious state of being. What fun it's been to curate and remix these dub plates and see them fly out of the bass bins like rusty industrial, robot butterflies, onto an unsuspecting crowd of dancers.
