I hunted this one down for the longest time so as to complete the African Dub wax set 1-5 in my collection. Eventualy got it also to be disapointed with its content. It somehow dont fit with the rest, it was pressed in Belgium or France or somewhere in EU. Its just a gap filler with 2 okay tracks on it if you ask me. Nice to have all parts now but still dont go mad spending good money on it like I did! Be warned !!

SCIENTIST DUBS CULTURE INTO A PARALLEL UNIVERSE.........i really like Culture, bt i think dis waz the worst dub album he produced

hi gingyfly
somehow you have attributed a comment made by another, to me. i never heard african dub almighty 5. thanks for the warnings though.and rasbanks...i agree, the scientist dubs culture into a parallel universe is really very poor, perhaps scientists weorst ever non bogus album. terrible vocal snippets, weak haphazard and tuneless riddims with poor overall effect.

Most of the UK digital stuff thats coming out turning into Drum & Bass.
peace

yeah
now drum n bass , hip hop, ragga, all these things have nothing to do with quality reggae, no more than rap music does. dub is lots better than any drum n bass i think

Did you not read or understand what i posted.
Most UK dub LPs sound like Drum & Bass music.
To fit in with the topic heading whats the worst dub lp im not going to list 200 records of bad uk dub it wastes my time already.
Why do i have to repeat my selfself again its getting boring like UK dum lps.
peace

and i repeat...drum n bass has got nothing to do with dub

When your at a UK dub dance people say to selector can you play some reggae.
The UK digital dub music sounds more like drum & bass than reggae dub.So whats uk digital dub got to do with reggae? a label.

Most of the digital UK dub LPs coming out at the moment.
