Our Take

Rejoice, dubheads and sport fanatics alike, for Zion Train have blessed us with "Great Sporting Moments In Dub," a delightful fusion of reggae rhythms and nostalgic sports commentary that will have you skanking and reminiscing in equal measure.

From the moment the opening track "Goal Line Dub" kicks in with its infectious bassline and cheeky samples of old-school football matches, you know you're in for a wild ride. The album seamlessly blends dub wizardry with iconic sporting moments, creating a sonic tapestry that is as funky as it is bizarre.

Tracks like "Wimbledon Skank" and "Olympic Sprinter's Dub" transport you to the hallowed grounds of Centre Court and the electrifying atmosphere of the Olympic stadium, while "Cricket Stump Shuffle" layers silky dub grooves over the sound of leather on willow.

But it's not just the clever sampling that makes this album a winner – Zion Train's production skills are on full display here, with each track meticulously crafted to perfection. The result is a fresh take on the dub genre that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking.

In a world saturated with generic reggae-lite offerings, "Great Sporting Moments In Dub" stands out as a true original, a testament to Zion Train's boundless creativity and irreverent sense of humor. So lace up your boots, grab your racket, and hit play on this absolute gem of an album. You won't be disappointed.
