2012s “On The Ground” was the first new Black Roots album in more
than twenty years and was eagerly received by fans old and new. As well as
gaining numerous fantastic reviews, more than three decades after their
formation, Black Roots were back as though theyd never been away and their music
was equally relevant in the present as it was thirty years ago. 
To celebrate the success of “On The Ground” and also to satisfy
numerous requests from the bands fans, Sugar Shack Records in conjunction with
Nubian Records, have decided to release the dub counterpart to the album
“On The Ground In Dub”. 
The dub mixes have been done by Louis Becket, a man who has a long history
working with leading reggae bands including Misty In Roots and Culture. He has
used those years of experience to craft a dub album worthy of comparison with
those from the musics peak during the 1970s. Recorded with a full band including
a horn section, the dubs hark back to that time before digital production and
sampling took over. Focusing on the rhythm section with the horns dropping in
and out, weaving a new tapestry from the original multi tracks, this is classic
dub music of the sort that has been rarely made in the last thirty years, a
modern dub classic. 
Stripped down and rearranged, “On The Ground Dub” is a worthy
release and stands 
on its own merits as a fine album that will appeal to all fans of dub Equally,
those that already love the vocal album will get renewed enjoyment, hearing
their favorite songs reshaped with the same authentic sound and attention to
detail that have helped “On The Ground” succeed so well. 
The 15 track album will be released on 4th March 2013 by Sugar Shack Records as
a CD and digital download and will be available from all good outlets.
