Dubroom Online - Edition November 15, 2007

"REAL PEOPLE, REAL REGGAE (1)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, November 15 2007 - Reggae is a strange kind of music, in a way.

You can learn the formula that will lead you to the technical
possibility to construct riddims with your band or even with digital
programming technology.

Many people try to learn the music, for example by analyzing the
original Dubroom Midi-files that we put online back in 1997 already.
Others strive to get to know every fine detail in Bob Marley's
productions.

But the result is not like any scientifical formula that you can
apply. There is an element in the music that cannot be defined in a
scholarly way...

Give Thanks, One Love,
