Yeah, Scientist's work with Roots Radics is superior. Tubby's old-school style didn't mesh as well.

worsest dub albums i-ve heared was "king size dub". a really crappy compilation with very abstarct sounds. i dont conside this as dub neither. and egg file sameway, not even 1 track was good.
midnight rock sameway, i cant get a clue how yu mix so wickid and then you mix so queer. some dub compilations are pure drum & bass not even 1 good echo effect. dry and boring. and worst ting is i dont know what they did to the bass but you can not use this versions for voicing sameway... nkurmah sometimes makes me wonder.

yeah don digital..i think these universal egg productions arent dub at all, they just misuse the word dub..kingsize dub has a wird sleeve, i dont like it already..

Wouldn't be the worst by a long shot but this
http://www.roots-archives.com/release/4779 was shockingly over hyped, only handful of tracks were quality whilst the rest made for a real boring listen!

I agree realego!.. the mixing in general on the majority of Channel One 7"s are pretty average..not that they're bad.. it's just they're not half as exciting as Tubby / Scientist / Jammy mixes from around the same time..
Also choice of riddims used were pretty weak apart from a few of them imo ..
Not bad.. but could have been so much better.. that's all!

the above raiders dub is very very weak, even the mix of each one teach one is seemingly hurried, tinny and minus the vocal snippets from the usual version.
