2 dubs from the outstanding Arkology's Blueprint album - mixed by Aba-Shanti-I and first released on Positive Beat Records in 1994."The two heavy steppers impress with great energy, bizarre chanting sounds and a deep vocal snippet by Ras T on "In the Valley Dub". The cutting snare drumsand crisp percussions of the "Reparation Dub" are virtually driving you forward, carried by bassline and melodies in a mid 90s Philip 'Fatis' Burrell style!"This is the 2nd release from Arkology on Ace Tone records.

Come out of Darkness (Vocal & Dub) by Spanky Brown

Authenticity is important in music culture, at least to those whose relationship with it is a lifelong love affair. As listeners, we instinctively respond to artists whose musical output is an authentic representation of their inspirations, experiences and working methods.By any measure, Guillaume Metenier’s collaborative Soul Sugar project oozes authenticity. It began in the late 2000s as an outlet for the virtuoso organist and producer’s updated takes on ‘60s and ‘70s soul-jazz and Hammond funk, but over the years it has evolved into something entirely different: a vehicle for classic dub and reggae inspired musical fusions made in collaboration with friends and like-minded musicians. As a result, Soul Sugar albums mix impressive musicianship with great grooves and untold nods to the sounds and artists that have helped shape Metenier’s musical outlook.
