Muflon Dub Soundsystem - Empty Church

Download from all music platforms

When we look around the world today, our faith is often put to the test. Is there truly a God when so much evil surrounds us? This question has been asked for thousands of years — it even appears in the Psalms of the Bible. Are you still holding on to your faith, or are you just one step away from losing it?

Let us stand strong together through this piece of music by Muflon Dub Soundsystem from Poland: firm steppers riddim, deep dub effects, heartical vocals by Karolina, and solid biblical inspiration woven into the lyrics.

Download from all music platforms

Dubussy is a musician and producer from Florence, Italy. His musical journey begins at an early age with the piano and a classical approach, leading him to the Florence Conservatory.

His personal epiphany for music happens when he witnesses the sound of a dub Sound System and feels the bass ‘roar’ for the first time. That’s when he starts crafting his own tunes and experimenting with dub, trying to recreate that powerful feeling that changed his life. Over time, he teaches himself to play new instruments, such as Trumpet, Melodica and Handpan.

Travel is a big part of his creative process, as he constantly draws inspiration from the places he visits and the people he meets. Though based in Florence, his nomadic lifestyle fuels his creativity, shaping a sound that is as fluid and evolving as the journey itself. His sound is strictly antifascist, antiracist and driven by a spirit of resistance and unity.

His debut EP, Horns n Tentacles, is entirely self-produced and mixed in his small home studio in Florence and mastered by Dubmatix.

French-Swiss producer Tokiboun in Dub returns with a new single. After having a few releases on Dubophonic (Mountain Vibrations EP with William Jacquement on the Trombone and Full Vibes on the flute and Dub Valley EP with Nish Wadada, Oryo, Mehdiman and Jah93), he returns with his new release entitled World In Peace, which includes two tracks:  King Of Kings featuring Jamaican artist Kimmy Gold on the vocals and King Of Sitar featuring Lance Hume on the Sitar.

She began learning to play the piano at that age, and it remains her instrument of choice as musician. While studying to be a teacher, she maintained her ties to music by practicing and listening to her biggest influences: Judy Mowatt, Rita Marley, Marcia Griffiths, Ziggy Marley and The Melody Makers and The Gladiators. Largely self-taught, Kimmy has steadfastly etched out a career as a musician and singer in Jamaican roots-reggae.

King of Sitar features the UK musician Lance Hume on the Sitar. As a multi-instrumentalist is specializing in fusing the mesmerizing sound of the Sitar with heavyweight dub. He has collaborated and released records with many artists such as Vibronics, Mr Zebre, Don Fe, Adam Prescot, Roots Ista Posse and more.

In terms of message, things are getting biblical here. Because whenever tribulation comes upon I and I, the word of JAH is always there for us. The title track Moc, is strongly inspired by the Book of Revelation, as these hard times can be lived through as Revelation Time. Its lyrics say:

“Power you got to experience / Glory which has to reveal / Truth which sets you free / Words worth remembering / Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks / and honor and power and strength / He will come again!” 

Another song, Emmanuel, also leads us to some mystical areas. Its inspiration also comes from the Bible, precisely, Luke 19, 44: Emmanuel! Recognize the time of God’s coming to you.”
