	1. With over 60,000 recordings to his name, is one of the most influential figures in dub. From Studio One to King Tubby’s, Channel One to Tuff Gong, he worked at Kingston’s premier studios, pioneering recording techniques and elevating the dub mix into an art form in his own right
	2. Known as the ‘Dub Chemist’ for both his technical expertise and forward-thinking ideas, ’s Night Dreamer session brings together musicians from across the London reggae scene, including The Instigators’ rhythm section Mafia and Fluxy , Creation Rebel guitarist Tony Ruffcut, vocalist Donovan Kingjay, Jah Shaka keyboardist Greg Assing and saxophonist Finn Peters

	6. Surrounded by vintage analogue gear, and recording direct-to-disc in a manner familiar to his early days cutting dubs at King Tubby’s, described the experience as being “thrown back in time”
	7. Having made records for everyone from Sugar Minott to Barrington Levy and released a treasure trove of cult albums under his own name, a new chapter in the extraordinary story of is opening up. As this Night Dreamer session attests, dub would sound very different without the one and only
