Dub Cmd - Lost Transmissions

Lost Transmissions is a collection of music created by Dub Cmd in 2019, which we never released, since the original files were never available to us ... the pc on which the productions were done was stolen and with it all the music. We have nevertheless managed to find the latest versions before the files were "lost" and we decided to share it to everybody as a free download 

 

This small musical treasure includes self-released or unreleased work of the artist, as well as some collaboration with O.L.M. from Italy and "deep music" specialist Mantsche from Austria with his first appearance on the label. These tracks were never released before! Last but not least, we included Still, a bonus dub-stepper track based on a poem by the legendary Count Ossie.Give thanks for downloading and listening, Guidance and love!

O.L.M. - Book of Daniel

It was Around 2,600 years ago when a Judean teenager was taken captive by the rapidly ascending Babylonian Empire, a force of unstoppable military strength, great wealth and technological advancement. Normally such an event would lead to a life in misery as a slave … but God had something else in mind for this young man named Daniel.

 

Daniel, the teenager who had been taken captive, came to realize that God was miraculously working with him … but not only to preserve his life. God was revealing through him some major prophecies of future world-ruling empires. As a resident of the world’s premier capital city and AS an honored wise man in King Nebuchadnezzar’s court, Daniel demonstrated God’s superiority over the pagan gods of Babylon and left a legacy of faithful obedience to God in spite of grave trials and tribulations.

Inspired by the Old Testament book, Italian producer Orlando La Montagna adapts the story of Daniel and transforms it into a dub adventure, introducing different variations of the same riddim just like the different chapters of the book. Each track has a deep spiritual ambience; starting with “Induction in Babylon” where Daniel is introduced in the hard Babylonian system through a stepper-techno beat and ending with “Life Giver”, which sends the final message to our permissive society of power-hungry people … to a nation without God. Daniel's situation in Babylon sounds quite a bit like our own, doesn’t it? 

 

"Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever,
wisdom and power are his.
He changes times and seasons;
he deposes kings and raises up others.
He gives wisdom to the wise 
and knowledge to the discerning.
He reveals deep and hidden things;
he knows what lies in darkness 
and light dwells with him.
I thank and praise you, God of my ancestors.
You have given me wisdom and power,
you have made known to me what we asked of you,
you have made known to us the dream of the king."  -   "Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream - Book of Daniel"
