Razoof



Razoof is a producer from Germany who produces dub and reggae. This first track, Ghostbusta Dub  showcases his reggae sound with some soothing vocals from  Don Abi.




 Donde el mar abraza (where the sea embraces) is a sexy tune witha great dubby bass line, skankin' guitar and seductive vocals. Enjoy

Beep

Darkness from Beep is such a pretty song. I could listen to it over and over.  "Mysterious, angelic, delicate, naked, but all the while arousing the bravery to conquer the fear of the dark... the unknown."

Gathering the Tribe

Interchill released their Gathering the Tribe compilation in 2006. It still sounds fresh seven years later. The compilation was intended to represent the West Coast festival sound. With a focus firmly on female vocals, live drums and natural instrumentation, this compilation has stood the test of time.
 
Madre dee vine is a track from Kin ship, an artist I don't know much about, but I love this track. The tabla, bass and sitar sound beautfiul and the vocals are soothing to the soul.




Picking up the energy, Adham Shaikh offered up this fun, feel good track called Marmalade Sun.

Banco De Gaia

Banco De Gaia (Toby Marks) is also one of the worlds leading exponents of globally inspired electronica. Mixing electronic and accoustic instruments, his work defies genre classification. His sound has been at the forefront of blending acoustic and electronic sounds, integrating themes and techniques from cultures and traditions the world over.

This first track Oreia is a good example. A solid drum groove, relentless dubby bass, and spacey vocals.



Banco De Gaia is back with a new album of all new material called "Apollo". The track "Wimble Toot" from the album has been remixed by psychill legends Eat Static and released as part of the "Wimble Toot EP". It's a catchy track with a fun Romanian "Gypsy" vibe.



Next up is a cool dubby mix from 100th Monkey.

Asura


Crossroads Limiter is an 11 minute musical journey from Asura, a music project from France. After an ambient opening, the track drops into a pulsing synth bass and some absolutely gorgeous vocals. This one is hypnotizing.


Altered State is just that. This deep trancey track takes a few minutes to get going, but when it does you're not turning back. Once the Elf horn sends it's signal, you know you're in deep....



El Hai ~ the voice of an angel singing over tribal rhythms. What more do you need?

Land Switcher



Land Switcher is a music project from France created by two musicians and longtime friends, Freddy Chauvin and Antoine Martineau. They played in a dub band years ago, and after a few late night parties they fell in love with the psy scene created Land Switcher. In their words.... the music is a cosmic journey through colors, grooves and intriguing atmospheres ...

Tribe Scenario has some lovely throbbing bass, cool tribal samples and pulsing dubby groove.



Horizon Hope - Sping tingling sub BASS ! African chanting,  - sick dubby vibe



This last track Deep Signals from a Land employs a warped yet middle Eastern chant along with their signiture pulsing 4/4 groove. It's a lovely spacious track with swirling synths.
