about

"Weapon" full release produced by Feldub. Resulting from a long studio work punctuated by concerts on stage or sound system, this album brings together all the influences that have animated for over 11 years the artistic project of the "dubmaker" FELDUB, from Bordeaux, France. The choice of the artistic collaborations (authors, singers, instrumentalists) testifies it largely.
By calling together "roots" singers (Kojo Neatness, U Brown, Marina P.) or influenced by electronic music and hip hop (Thomas Anton, Jman), MCs and toasters from the sound system scene UK (Danman, Mr Williamz) or that, nowadays abundant, of France (Twan Tee, Sama Renuka): this album celebrates the still alive heritage of dub culture born in Jamaica at the end of the 70's. tribute to the power matrix of such a culture, the album crosses all the epochs: from the most roots dub to the most electro influenced by the French dub scene of the 90s or that of the sound system UK, while passing by the hip hop and the very contemporary "Bass Music".
Despite the deliberately "patchwork" aspect of this album, a coherence emerges: that of the dub precisely (trance, sample, sound effects) but also that of the harmonic lines (trumpet, melodica or violin) that accompany and color all the productions of this LP.

Feldub wanted to give a militant color to the project by calling it "Weapon". Dub is a weapon: at the same time positive, critical and committed, it invites to escape but also to denounce the authoritarian drifts, the racism, the exploitation ...

"Weapon" produit par Feldub. Issu d’un long travail de studio ponctué par des concerts sur scène ou en sound system, cet album réunit l’ensemble des influences qui ont animé depuis plus de 11 années le projet artistique du « dubmaker » français. .
En convoquant tour à tour des chanteurs et chanteuses « roots » (Kojo Neatness, U Brown, Marina P.) ou influencés par la musique électronique et le hip hop (Thomas Anton, Jman), des MC et toasters issus de la scène sound system UK (Danman, Mr Williamz) ou celle, foisonnante aujourd’hui, de la France (Twan Tee, Sama Renuka) : cet album célèbre l’héritage encore vivant de la culture dub née en Jamaïque à la fin des années 70. Sorte d’hommage à la puissance matricielle d’une telle culture, l’album traverse toutes les époques.
Malgré l’aspect délibérément « patchwork » de cet album, il s’en dégage une cohérence : celle du dub précisément (transe, sample, effets sonores) mais aussi celle des lignes harmoniques (la trompette, du melodica ou du violon) qui accompagnent et colorent toutes les productions de cet LP.
Le dub est une arme : à la fois positif, critique et engagé, il invite à s’évader mais aussi à dénoncer les dérives autoritaires, le racisme, l’exploitation...

about

FELDUB Bordeaux, France

Co-founder of Banzaï Lab, Feldub is the Bordeaux label’s resident dubmaker. An idosyncratic presence on the French dub scene, Feldub freely mixes soaring Steppa and abyssal Dub. His main asset? An innate feel for melodic basslines that stay embedded in the cerebral cortex.
