About this album
After releasing 10 albums of mostly tracks in Dub style, and after numerous requests to release more tracks with full lyrics, we’re proud to present Messian Dread’s answer to the popular demand.
Here is: SHOWCASE!
In almost 73 minutes, Messian Dread takes you to the wide variety of styles within his oeuvre. Well over twenty years of learning experience, often with blood sweat and tears, show just what Reggae Music can do with a man.
15 Tracks, starting of with some deep Roots and a little Rockers, moving over into Rub a Dub (“early dancehall”), and then back to Roots before completing with some serious Steppers.
Messian Dread is both a singer and a chanter, or MC. His many influences therefore range from Don Carlos to Tappa Zukie. He takes his lyrics as serious as his music, therefore adding a dimension that imitators can only dream of. As a musician he is well rooted in various styles within the rhythm of Reggae Music, allways starting with a solid drum and bass line. And as a Dub engineer he takes the listener to deeper and unknown dimensions in the music, unheard in the vocal parts.
It took Messian Dread a year to produce the album. 50 different riddims were created, then voiced, and subsequently the 15 best ones were selected and mixed especially for this production.
SHOWCASE can best be seen as a concert: every track is mixed espcially to preceed the previous and work on to the next. Some tracks will start with the DUB part, others will have a different mix. And there’s not a single fade-out, as every title has it’s own start and finish as well.
