are a great way to get yourself familiar
with all kinds of artists and styles you
might like to consider for your next
purchase. It is also a very good way of
experiencing Reggae in an alternative way as
many podcasts are de facto non-stop mixes,
often put together by skillful DJ's and
other Sound System personnel. The Dubroom
has reviewed many of the best podcast(ers)
throughout the years, all of which you can
discover in our reviewed podcast pages. Be
sure to also check out the Dubroom's own
podcast. A link to the latest chapter can be
found on the left side of this page.

"INGLAN
IS A BITCH: FAST CHAT"
DUBROOM PODCAST REVIEW |
| WWW,
September 2007 - Smiley Culture's
"Cockney Translation" is just one
out of five great examples of the UK's
answer to Jamaican Rub a Dub in the 1980's.
When U-Roy
started to chant over the instrumental
versions played by King Tubby's Hi-Fi Sound
System, many different styles were born.
Throughout
the 1970's, the DJ's chanted over the drum
and basslines of dubbed out Reggae tracks.
In the 1980's, Jamaica developed Rub a Dub
music, with a strong DJ presence.
In the UK,
a similar development was going on. Saxon
Sound System gave birth to a brand new genre
when their MC's began to toast at
warp-speed: the "Fast Chatters"
came to take over and ruled the UK charts
with classics like Smiley Culture's Cockney
Translation.
