A disciple of Lee “Scratch” Perry, Mad Professor was one of the leading producers in dub reggae’s second generation. His Dub Me Crazy albums helped dub make the transition into the digital age, when electronic productions started to take over mainstream reggae in the ’80s.
His space-age tracks not only made use of new digital technology, but often expanded dub’s sonic blueprint, adding more elements and layers of sound than his forebears typically did. As his reputation grew, he became a remixer of choice for adventurous rock and techno acts, most notably revamping Massive Attack’s entire second album under the new title No Protection.
And for 8 September Mad Professor is bringing the beautiful Sister Aisha on vocals - The Roots Daughter of Ariwa Sounds; Singing empress of Roots Rock Reggae - Aisha & Mad Professor are made for each other. Working together since the ‘80s, their combo of spacy, digital dub and angelic vocals is legendary.
Topped and tailed by Bee & Benn’s super duper heavyweight solid vibes. There’ll be no time for sitting down, only getting down with the Bristol Hi- Fi sound.
