Scientist – Direct-To-Dub
Night Dreamer – ND022
Direct to Disc LP. Limited to 200 copies. Green with marbled effect. Numbered sticker directly on record's center label.
With over 60,000 recordings to his name, Scientist (born Hopeton Overton Brown) is one of the most influential figures in dub. From Studio One to King Tubby’s, Channel One to Tuff Gong, he worked at Kingston’s premier studios, pioneering recording techniques and elevating the dub mix into an art form in his own right.
Having set up the studio just right, the group cut six tracks that were subsequently dubbed direct-to-lacquer by Scientist, allowing his creativity to come to the fore: “In dub mixing, the engineer now becomes the artist and it’s a performance that the engineer do,” Scientist explains, with almost five decades of experience to his name.
Having made records for everyone from Sugar Minott to Barrington Levy and released a treasure trove of cult albums under his own name, a new chapter in the extraordinary story of Scientist is opening up. As this Night Dreamer session attests, dub would sound very different without the one and only Scientist.
