Adrian Sherwood: AHeadfullofNoise
Taken from the 38 Minutes site:
A few years back Adrian Sherwood and Doug Aubrey‘s worlds met and mixed somewhere in North London. A shared interest in noise, silence and a mutual hearing loss, caused by Bombs, Drum and Bass, led the Godfather of dub and Aubrey starting to talk about trying to make a film together. Aided by a few fellow conspirators from On-U-sounds world: Ghetto Priest, Doug Wimbish, Mark Stewart and a passing cat, they produced a short never seen video … until now.
The dubmaster and the filmmaker again met recently in Edinburgh and at Graham Fagan’s fantastic ‘I murder Hate‘ event in Stirling and there’s now rumour of a major film collaboration for the 30th anniversary of the seminal On-U Sound in 2011, which will form part of a dvd box set, a work for cinema and who knows even television?Enjoy!
For the true dubheads, there’s a great soundboard recording of the Sherwood show over at Demonoid. Wonderfull stuff, so be fast.
Independence Dub Day 2009
Dub Flash has some great videos online, taken on the Independence Dub Day 2009 festival in Wroclaw, Poland, 7th March 2009. Featuring Adrian Sherwood deejaying with Little Roy on the mic, Dubblestandart, Brain Damage, Aba Shanti and the All Sunrises Soundsystem from Poland. The videos are slow loaders, but they show some great footage so they’re surely worth the waiting. Nice work.
Perry meets Lennon mashup
A great mashup of Max Romeo’s “Chase The Devil” (produced by Lee Perry) & The Beatles’ “A Day In The Life”, recently uploaded on Adrian Sherwood’s myspace page with some pictures to match. Somebody played around with some software, added some pictures and put the result on Youtube. Wondering how long it’s going to stay up, so listen fast.
More dubs and some other great tunes on Adrian Sherwood’s myspace page. He has recently released Lee Perry’s “The Mighty Upsetter” on the On-U Sound Label. One of the best Perry albums in years and with a dub companion on the way.
