Dubwise?

[cp.]

What does dubwise mean? Is there any difference between the dub and dubwise terms? English is not my native language so this is probably more of a vocabulary trouble.

And how are the albums with extended dub tracks called? I mean, albums like Well Pleased & Satisfied's Love Train, those with a dub track following the actual track.

Thanks.

I don't think there's much difference between "dub" and "dubwise", "dubwise" would just mean like a dub so if a live band drops the vocals and strips the backing down to drum and bass that would be playing it dubwise I suppose.

Albums with vocals followed by dubs are usually called showcases although some of the Studio 1 albums with "showcase" in the title don't have dubs to all the tracks and some tracks have more than one dub!

i always see dubwise as more of a descriptive term, for the style. like jesco said when the band turn it drum and bass an no singer, it is played inna dubwise fashion seen?

Here is a little English lessons for you cp

The suffix ( an end word added to a word )
"wise" means in a style, way, fashion or manner.
An example is CLOCKWISE which means from left to right
( usually in a circle the WAY a clock moves ).
Anti-clockwise being the opposite ie; right to left.
So Dubwise simply means in a dub style.
" Inna style and fashion "
" Inna dub styleee "

Hope that helps you cp
