Heavyweight Roots Dub Outta Bristol

About Me

NEW SITE: http://www.dubkasm.com Dubkasm is a UK and Brazil-based roots reggae/dub outfit from Bristol, England. Formed in 1994 by Digistep (producer and musician) and DJ Stryda (co-ordinator/promoter), their debut release in 1996 was 'Chemical Reaction Dub' on Nubian Records' 'Dub Out West' compilation series (NRLP15).Since then they have released five records on their own Sufferah's Choice Recordings label (named after DJ Stryda's well-established Bristol radio show) and received consistent radio and soundsystem play. Well-known Dubkasm dubplates include the session-closing 'Warrior' (see: www.myspace.com/jahshakasoundsystem), 'Jah Bible' on Aba Shanti-I and 'Deh Inna de Lions' Den' on Iration Steppas. Digistep, currently living in Brazil, is also known as a session saxophonist in the roots/dub scene, and Shanti-Ites band's hornsman. Dubkasm has collaborated with UK producers and artists including Ras Bandele Selassie, Ras Addis, Ras Xylon (Lidj Inc.), Aba Shanti-I , Iration Steppas, Ras Iyah, Levi Roots, Ras Natural, Tena Stelin and Afrikan Simba, and aims to push out a positive message through quality roots and dub reggae productions.
