Message Music – Augustus Pablo's Digital Productions 1986 to 1994
LP (Item 574544) Pressure Sounds (UK), Late 80s/Early 90s — Condition: New Copy
A perfect platter of digital era productions from Augustus Pablo – one of the greatest reggae instrumentalists ever – a pivotal figure from the 70s onward who modernized and digitized in the mid 80s along with the rest of the industry, balancing it with roots and acoustic elements in a way that stands the test of time! The liner notes here do a terrific job of detailing the inner aesthetic conflict that Pablo and classics-reared reggae musicians were feeling during the digital technological revolution, while embracing it at the same time. Brilliantly, Pablo made instrumentals to last. The melodica is often way out front in the mix and serving as the lead instrument, airily floating over both digital and acoustic percussion, and he balances the modes similarly well throughout the material on this essential Pressure Sounds compilation. Includes "A Java Instrumental (Version)", "Butter Pon Dem Mouth Version", "Missing Link" and "Missing Link Dub", "Credential Instrumental", "Seven Winds From Zion", "Culture Rule Dub" by Rockers International Band, "War Dub" by Pablo All Stars, "Poor Mans Cry Dub" by Rockers All Stars, "Kidd Lane Specially" by Augustus Pablo & Benbow and more. 16 tracks in all. © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
