Hi, I'm looking for articles, topics, etc..., explaining the techniques used to make dub back in the 70-80's.
Thx :)

There's an article out there by Chris Lane which is brilliant. It's called A Musical Revolution - Chris Lane On Dub. It writes some on how dubbing evolved with some focus on the technical aspect.

I dont know if its cool to link to other forums, so feel free to delete/edit this post if I am transgressing.

Interruptor's site and particuarly his forum has a lot of in depth dub produciton discussion. Also there have been a few threads that I have seen on the Bloood&Fire forum which have gone into the more technical details of equipment and techniques used by Jamaican engineers. (Also there are a few threads on this forum as well).

And although I have not read it myself, the Michael Veal book 'Dub: Soundscapes and Shattered Songs in Jamaican Reggae' seems to have generally positive reviews.
