I think the people need some rub-a-dub music so ladies and gentlemen please welcome the NYC dub-troop Easy Star All-Stars . " Don't Stop Dub Music " is off their newest album First Light. The whole album is outstanding but there is just something magical about this group's dub tracks. Dub Side of the Moon , Dubber Side of the Moon and Radiodread are worth devoting some time to if you haven't already - arguably the best cover albums of all time. Anyway, Don't Stop Dub Music is another [...]
Ima put it on wax and give you the raw facts and truth about life and the things I'm dealin' with/Black folks saying that I'm too intelligent/And white folks saying I'm a little too n*ggerish/It's got me in a strange predicament/I wish BET and MTV would judge more wisely/But I don't know whats worse/The fact that they ain't playing our shit?/Or the fact that it don't even surprise me?/Because I ain't shuckin' and cuz I ain't jivin'/Some of these crackers won't stand beside me/And cuz I ain't killing and don't support pimping/Some of these n*ggas wanna call me a Cosby/Well?

Como ya han de saber, el próximo fin de semana estarán los Easy Star All Stars en nuestro país, y a nuestro parecer la fecha más coqueta donde se presentarán será en las pirámides de Cholula, Puebla el viernes, o sea, pasado mañana gracias a nuestros amigos de AlbinoMX. Y digamos que será como un entremés para lo que será su 1er Aniversario, nada más y nada menos que con los australianos Miami
Of course when I started I never imagined some of the things you have to go through. But anything you do in life is about meeting the challenges. What I tell any young people who want to get into this business is you have to be prepared to never give up. ~ MC Lyte The Mint Condition pt 2 - The Extremities - Prod by Ali Shaheed Muhammed - Upon seeing the production credit of Ali Shaheed Muhammed of Tribe Called Quest fame, you should know the music is going [...]
by Sebastian O'Dowd Thursday On arrival at Womad 2011 it was clear that they have stayed true to their original layout of the whole festival, with a world of well being and the main arena being calm, relaxing and an easy space to navigate around. In the evening on Thursday there was one main band who I was dying to see, the Easy Star all Stars who delivered a set replete with entertainment and talent. Their covers of 'Dark Side of the Moon and 'Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts [...]
Click here to see full photo gallery from Camp Bisco X. The rolling green hills and bountiful vast fields of upstate New York provide a very rural, laid back lifestyle, the polar opposite of New York City's over-crowded hustle and bustle mentality. Hosting a music festival here is ideal for a large portion of NYC inhabitants and east coasters alike: it's accessible via public transportation or car, cheap, and easy to pencil-in around your work schedule. This three day event (Thursday, Friday, Saturday) hosted by the Disco Biscuits [...]
(Photo by Matthew Speck) We all make lists. You've got your favorite foods, the top 10 places you want to travel to, favorite TV shows, the list of people you've slept with, etc. etc. Well I have all of those lists and then I have a list of my favorite shows. I've seen some pretty great shows. Four out my last eight are duking it out for a spot among my top 10. That's not a title that I confer lightly. This list is ever-changing, ever-updating. Until Sunday night, I had Jurassic 5 [...]
"Each one has to find his peace from within. And peace to be real must be unaffected by outside circumstances." ~ Mahatma Gandhi Mind Your Manners - Chiddy Bang - It's amazing how much producers matter in this current age. But the label "producer" takes many shapes. In the case of most of pop music, the producer does everything, makes the beat/music, layers the vocalist and makes sure they're in key and sound good, mixes the whole song. While the vocalist may be just that, a vocal instrumentalist, there [...]
What a bomb week came and went. It's worth streaming the new Bon Iver, new Fucked Up, and some twisty remixes from masters The Orb and Krusha. And, what the hell, respect to Easy Star All Star.

Planned on doing this for some time, but never thought I had enough. Well, when I first started compiling I definitely didn't - but after a lot of research on YouTube, SoundCloud & beyond, I've come up with nine solid dubstep remixes of that classic rock we've grown up on. Two rock legends I wanted to find were Jimi Hendrix & ZZ Top, but unfortunately there weren't any quality ones out there. If you know of any, or any other dubstep remixes I haven't included here, hit it up in the comments below! [...]
Who are Easy Star All-Stars ? Really, by now we should know: Dub Side of the Moon , their acclaimed refashioning of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon is eight years old, plus Radiodread , a tribute to Radiohead's Ok Computer , and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Dub Band -–no surprise who that's a tribute to-aren't much younger. And yet it's taken up until now (the online release of EP Until That Day aside) for listeners to get a stab at pinning down what exactly Easy Star All-Stars [...]
Greetings New Yorkers. It's only the beginning, May 25 th to be exact, and the heat is starting to kick in. Our concrete jungle is slowly morphing into a roasting sauna. However, there are plenty of upsides to this temperature change: the sun is shining, flip-flops are becoming the ideal shoe of choice, the streets are flooded with people, and music is in the air, literally. Everywhere you walk, day and night, night and day, palpable, melodic vibrations are pouring out venue doors, small cafes, and street corners. This concept is refreshing, the winter is far behind us and [...]

Today I bring you a little piece of a stoner's paradise: the Rastafarian interpretation of Pink Floyd. Dub Side of the Moon bridges together two influential cornerstones in drug culture. If you haven already figured it out from the album title, the Easy Star All-Stars took Pink Floyd's most commercially successful album Dark Side of the Moon and reworked it in their own reggae-ish musical style while keeping the lyrics in tact. To cover Pink Floyd is a daunting task. Floydheads would contend that the duo of Gilmore and Waters on vocals is impossible to replicate – and [...]
