The
Dubroom reviews a lot of different material, from
musical to educational to beneficial and more.
We've got music, but also material for artists and
producers as well as researchers of more conscious
material. As always, when the Dubroom reviews
something, this means that this website considers
the material at least fair. So don't expect any
negative reviews. When it's here, we recommend it.
Period.

full-length documentaries to video clips,
this is where you can not only enjoy the
sounds of (DUB) Reggae music, but the sights
as well. We are talking about very diverse
material that is not selected persay because
of it's novelty. Historical recordings that stood
against the test of times are offered as
well, TV broadcasts,
interviews: the Dubroom is always interested
in relevant and/or of high quality material
to review and in this part of the Dubroom
video reviews you can find just that.

JAHRANIMO
AND JAH CURE - I'M FREE
DUBROOM
VIDEO REVIEW |
WWW,
October 2008 - Brand New, Good For You:
straight from the prison into the studio,
Jah Cure is backing Jahranimo in another
great video by Jamaican producer Wayne
Benjamin.
One says
this, and the other says that about Jah
Cure. The well-known Jamaican vocalist spent
a long time in jail for rape and even though
there are several sides to (t)his story, it
is obvious that he is back and not intending
to take an unconscious road.

REGGAE: THE
STORY OF JAMAICAN MUSIC (PART ONE: FORWARD
MARCH)
DUBROOM
VIDEO REVIEW |
WWW,
June 2008 - The first part of this
excellent series of documentaries by the BBC
takes us back to the 1960's and before,
providing tremendous insights into the birth
of the music that we like so much.
The UK
based documentary deals with the early
1960's, when Jamaica "gained
independence" and SKA originated in the
celebrations surrounding the events. It
doesn't take long before we are introduced
to a number of then contemporary artists and
go even further back in time to get more
knowledge and overstanding.

TYRICAL -
NO GUERILLA WAR (2007)
DUBROOM
VIDEO REVIEW |
WWW,
June 2008 - Artists dissing and bashing
each other: there's something wrong with
certain vibes in the dance. Tyrical come to
chant it down!
With guest
appearances of such greats as Beenieman and
Bounty Killer, Tyrical makes his point: it's
better for the artists to come together than
to fight guerilla wars with each other,
"inspiring" their audience to do
the same.

DUBROOM
VIDEO REVIEW |
WWW,
May 2008 - Also known as the Herbalist,
Chezidek calls pon the World Leaders to
finally install some justice and equality
and he does it in a Roots Rock Reggae style.
Throughout
the ages, the Most High Jah has always risen
up prophets who called upon the leaders of
nations to do what He say, which is to give
peace justice and equality to the people of
this planet, all of them created by the Most
High.

BUJU BANTON
- LIVE IN JAMAICA (1992)
DUBROOM
VIDEO REVIEW |
WWW,
May 2008 - Before Buju Banton became
part of what many call the "Rasta
Renaissance" during the early 1990's,
he was already part of the top of Dancehall
Music. This video captures him before he
started growing his dreadlocks.
The music
is minimalistic, the band is four members
strong, Buju is energetic: Dancehall in 1992
made many people wonder "where Reggae
has gone too". They blamed the computer
and programming, but they will get the same
idea while watching Buju and band perform.
