Our Take

Ah, King Tubby's Lost Treasures, a veritable musical time capsule unearthed from the depths of dub history. This album is a smorgasbord of sonic delights, a tantalizing blend of spacey rhythms, skittering beats, and trippy effects that will have you lost in a haze of reverb in no time.

From the moment the needle drops on the opening track, you are transported to a world where bass reigns supreme and echoes dance in the air like ghosts at a rave. King Tubby's mastery of the mixing board is on full display here, with every element of the music carefully woven together to create a tapestry of sound that is both mesmerizing and hypnotic.

Tracks like "Echo Chamber" and "Dubwise" showcase Tubby's penchant for experimentation, as he takes familiar reggae rhythms and twists them into strange and wonderful new shapes. The result is a heady brew that will have you nodding your head in time with the beat, lost in a dub-induced trance.

In short, King Tubby's Lost Treasures is a must-listen for any fan of dub music, or anyone looking to expand their sonic horizons. So grab your headphones, turn up the volume, and prepare to be transported to a world where the bass is heavy, the beats are infectious, and the dub never stops flowing. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
