His live events have brought together soundsystem legends like Jah Shaka, Aba Shanti-I and Sir Coxsone alongside reggae greats such as Twinkle Brothers, Michael Prophet, and Johnny Osbourne and collaborated with Mala’s DEEP MEdi imprint to push boundaries and move bass music forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTID001 is a hard-hitting 12” from Stryda’s own outfit, the legendary duo, Dubkasm, and was built in his and Digstep's Bristol studio. Featuring four versions of ‘The Return’, a powerful, atmospheric slice of dub which has been played worldwide by Dubkasm and Ital Power Soundsystem. Heads will remember it (and the Gorgon Sound remix) as the basis of the final two 7”s on Portland Oregon’s ZamZam Sounds label. These four brutal mixes for TID001 are the original and highly sought-after dubplate pieces. Echoing forest sounds and shards of melodica provide deep texture, while tough synth bass and an Armenian duduk carry the tune. Steve Vibronics adds driving horns to the final cut, the ‘Majestic’ version, from his studio in Leicester where the record was mixed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMastered on 1\/2” tape by Lewis at Stardelta, this debut release plays loud and hits hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiven Stryda’s unique ability to build bridges within and across the scene, it will be very exciting to see where Teachings in Dub will take music next.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Teachings in Dub","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48415030804636,"sku":"TID001","price":16.43,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/unnamed_0ea7a99f-82e9-4fee-989f-9febc067a32f.jpg?v=1794499435","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/dubkasm-the-return-dubplate-pieces","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
