Global Dubwize Vibes & Dread Bass Culture
Saturday May 26th 2007 @ Club Six
This month Surya Dub celebrates the CD Release of resident Kush Arora's 3rd Album “From Brooklyn to SF”! Also appearing alongside Kush is New York MC Juakali (Dub War, Sub Swara)!
And to round out the night are Special Guests Raz Mesinai (aka Badawi/Sub Dub) as well as Lady Ra (Beats Without Borders, Vancouver)!
Bubbling out of the S.F. underground, "From Brooklyn to SF" is an adventure of Dread bass, dubstep/dub, and desi dancehall featuring N. America's most adventurous vocalists. The Singers on this release are Juakali, Zulu, N4SA, Blacksmith, and Gurmeet. This follows the recent release of MC Juakali's 12" EP, where Kush appears alongside dubmasters Alpha & Omega, and NYC's Drop the lime. Kush Arora teams up with 3 other Bay Area producers, in dub. Surf's Up with Luke Argila is an Indian surfing dubstep anthem, Surya Dub with Maneesh The Twister explores UK digital Steppers with Gurmeet on Vox, and "Boss Strutt Dub" with process Rebel enters the world of sound design and IDM. Kush has shared the bill with Dr. Israel, SF's Dhamaal Soundsystem, opened for Theivery Corp, and regularly plays the 10 year long running Dub Mission in San Francisco.
Juakali is the resident MC of New York City's premier dubstep event, Dub War, and the internationally fueled bass driven club night Sub Swara. This year alone he has been featured on tunes by UK Dub heavyweights Alpha & Omega, Bristol's dubstep legend Pinch, NYC's Dhruva and SubSwara Crew, and many other groundbreaking producers.
