It's Out Of Space of Prodigy's first album Experience.

And thank you for all these names:tongue:

What, no Mad Professor? He's great...

I haven't really heard any Mad Professor. What are some good albums?

When it comes to Reggae the obvious would be anything and I do mean anything by Bob Marley and the Wailers.

Two serious groups that have not been mentioned Black Uhuru and Steel Pulse

When it comes to producers to look for Reggae/Dub it comes down to two of them.

Lee "Scartch" Perry not only is he the greatest reggae/dub producer he worked on several of The Clash's recordings. He went a little crazy in the last decade including buring down his own studio.

King Tubby is the other producer to look for if you are into serious Dub.

Mad Professor is a follower of Perry. I would suggest The African Connection: Dub Me Crazy Pt. 3 and Dub Take the Voodoo Out of Reggae. On the second he remixes Perry.

i've heard some mad professor and i liked it but it was a massive attack remix album... he re-worked protection and it was released as 'no-protection' from what i've heard it's superior to the original...

something i've been curious about in terms of dub and reggae is the term ragga... what's the deal with it... i've got one track on a cd where the vocalist just repeats 'same ragga time same ragga channel' over some tweaked out quasi-ambient backing music...

and i'm still having a hard time finding some really dense stuff... it's hard to explain the type of dub or raggaei'm looking for... like really heavy instrumentation... extra thick guitar and bass... LOTS of echo... ultra flanged drums... i realise it's a pretty vague description but yeah it's all i've got for now hehehe... i've tried lee perry (super ape album) and i dig it but it's not thick enough

Right on. I like all of the Steel Pulse that I've heard, though I admit that I haven't heard enough. True Democracy (1982) is my favorite, from what I've heard. They're from England, but you wouldn't know it.

I looove Black Uhuru. My favorites are Sinsemilla (1980) and Red (1981), but you can't go wrong with any of their albums. The best reggae band of the early 80s, possibly beyond.

Also, have you heard of an album called Firehouse Clash? Most people haven't. The tracks were recorded in 1981 by Junior Reid, future member of Black Uhuru, and Don Carlos, founding member of Black Uhuru, but they didn't see the light of day until 1986. It's crucial.

Ragga refers to reggae in which the the great majority of the backing instrumentation is digital. Ragga is short for raggamuffin, which is a term describing the Kingston youth. It came to mean the style of reggae music the kids in the 80's liked. Different artists would record their own lyrics and melodies over the same pre-existing rhythm track.

If you're into Junior Reid check out Long Road and Visa.

It's a tie between Red and Sinsemilla when it comes to Black Uhuru. Chill Out comes in 3rd and was produced by Sly & Robbie. I have heard they are supposed to be involed in 250,000 tracks.

right on... i recently got into dub syndicate also... would you guys happen to know of something similar but heavier?
