about

Some of the best bands and pop artists in the world have put out Dub albums: Grace Jones, Bad Brains, Baba Zula, Gorillaz, Sly & Robbie & Nils Petter Molvaer, The Clash, Massive Attack, The Ruts & Mad Professor, William Burroughs, Roots Manuva, Boy George, Khruangbin and The Pop Group. Now the time has come for Transylvania’s outcast Lil Obeah to put out his In Dub versions album.

Obeah proudly presents his second album, Lil Obeah in Dub, a collaboration with veteran professionals in the music business, Marius Costache of Studio148, Count Dubulah aka Dub Colossus, Tim Whelan & Hamid Mantu aka Transglobal Underground, Horseman, and Marian Șerban. The brand new album features 11 instrumental dub songs envisioned as a horror film soundtrack from both communist folk Romania and eighties Jamaica. Take a ride into another dimension: The Shape of Dub to Come! This is a Transylvanian duppy dub transmission from the heart of Romania.

Transylvanian artist Lil Obeah launches his first electronic dub music album, a sound collage collaboration with outernational music professionals: from Bucharest producer Marius Costache of Studio148 to international stars such as Nick “Count Dubulah” Page aka Dub Colossus and Tim Whelan and Hamid Mantu aka Transglobal Underground.

On the Lil Obeah in Dub album, artists and musicians from Great Britain and Romania act like pieces in a sonic collage, the drums and percussions of Horseman aka Winston Williams, the production, electric bass, guitar and synths of Nick Page aka Count Dubulah, the production, keys, drums and sounds of Hamid Mantu & Tim Whelan, the main duo from the Transglobal Undeground collective, the santur of Marian Șerban Fieraru from the Corina Sîrghi & Jean Americanu’ Tarafs, the piano of Adi Stoenescu and the electric bass of Laura Benedek from Jam Circle, the trumpet and guitar of Cătălin Lungu, the theremin of Leon Lotoțchi, the electric bass of Michael Acker, the flute of Alexandru Arcuș and the electric bass of Mihai Moldoveanu and last, but not least, the collages of artist Cristiana Bucureci all fall into place creating a musical jigsaw.

If the concept of the album is developed around dub music the other influences range from classic horror movies to Romanian folklore and folk produced and promoted before ’89 by the Electrecord label. Obeah considers Dub music sound art and aims to create a forever authentic Romanian horror film soundtrack with his songs and remixes.
