Roots Masashi - Namah Shivaya [DPH039]

Roots Masashi is a Roots Rock / New Roots composer from Osaka, Japan. He drew his inspiration from friends in high school and fell in love with conscious reggae music.  He was fascinated by Osaka’s dub scene, especially after meeting the “Dub I Roots Crew” and “Rebel Culture” in 2012 and soon after, he started building “Roots Far I”, his own Sound System and Digital Live project, based in Kishiwada of South Osaka. His devotion to Roots Rock Reggae, New Roots and Dub guided him all around Japan, touring with the soundsystem and urging him to reach new musical heights

His first release on Dubophonic Records is a musical and holy salutation to the Auspicious, an adoration to the Most High. Based on one of the most important Mantras in the Shaivism tradition, Namah Shivaya is associated with qualities of prayer, divine-love, grace, truth, and blissfulness. It calms the mind and brings spiritual insight and knowledge. Traditionally, it is accepted to be a powerful healing mantra beneficial for all physical and mental ailments. “Na” sound represents the earth, “Mah” sound represents the water, “Shi” sound represents the fire, “Va” sound represents the air and “Ya” sound represents thesky. Its total meaning is that "universal consciousness is one". The recitation of these syllables is sound therapy for the body and nectar for the inner self and the soul.

dub cmd - Moonsteppa [DUB014]

Dub Command is a solo project of the UK based dub producer and musician Gabriel Ufir, born and raised in Poland, where his love for reggae and dub originates from.

After moving to the UK at the age of 18, Gabriel started learning to produce electronic and computer music and fell in love with composing music. During this time he continued to explore dub scene and through years of experiments in the studio he managed to create a unique blend of serious dub basslines over electronic-reggae, often lo-fi style tracks. With a fast growing audience and positive response from soundsystems, Gabriel will be working soon on his new material and start to perform live shows in 2020.

The Moonsteppa EP is the artist’s first official release. It includes two heavyweight rootical dubs, accompanied by their crucial versions. Give thanks to Mantsche for the inspiring artwork.
