This Guide To Jamaican Dub Is Your Anecdote To Summer Stress

Cool off in the dub cave.

Summer is well and truly upon us. But unless you’ve already settled on a summer anthem, you’re probably in search of music that is both fitting for the season, and can take the edge off of its more sweltering days. What better time, then, to combine your seasonal needs with a plunge into the deep waters of dub music? Full of hypnotic bass lines and delay and reverb drenched aural spaces, a good dose of dub music is the perfect way to lull you into psychedelic summer haze.

Fortunately, there are great dub music primers like this one to help kickstart your listening. Featuring classic cuts by Lee “Scratch” Perry, Mad Professor, and King Tubby, the primer canvasses some of the best musical minds from Jamaica’s rich lineage of producers. You can listen to tracks from all four acts below. Summer will immediately feel just that little bit better.
