Review
Doctor Echo aka Justin DeHart, hails form Sacramento, California. This artist has been crafting dub music since the early 90s, and this self-titled album, his second. His is an eclectic sound rooted in classic 70s dub but updated with a modern twist, including touches of dancehall, jazz, hip-hop and some indescribable things that simply must be heard. Massive Dub, for instance, sounds a bit like a hip-hop version of a Sergio Leone theme song. Other tracks, like Acquired Space, Dub for Truth and the jazzy Dub #3, are atmospheric to the point of being cinematic. Drum and bass are the driving forces here, as the good Doctor soley rely on the typical rootsy one drop sound, although it can be found on some of the later cuts. Many of the tracks start out as one thing and end up someplace completely different, lending an unpredictable element that kept the music from fading into the background.
Reggae Vibes. Edited
