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.

(DUB)
REGGAE MUSIC |
| From
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.

MISTY IN
ROOTS - SYSTEM OWN DEM, BABYLON CONTROL DEM
DUBROOM
VIDEO REVIEW |
| Jamaican
music, also known as Reggae, has been
popular throughout the UK because of the
colonialist ties between the two countries.
In the 1970's, there was a remarkable rise
of Reggae Music bands in the UK and many of
these bands continue until this very day.
MISTY IN
ROOTS was such a band, too. In this
recording from the 1980's they show their
specialty, which is performing spiritually
based Reggae Music live on stage.

KIDDUS I -
GRADUATION IN ZION
DUBROOM
VIDEO REVIEW |
| In
this shot taken from the legendary movie
"Rockers", we see a performance by
Kiddus I. It's a rare performance, and even
those with a huge Reggae collection will
perhaps only have this track. But what a
track it is!
In an exceptionally heartical vibe,
Kiddus I sings words of encouragement to the
sufferers. The scene is shot in the studio,
and whether he sung it live or not, doesn't
matter.

JOSEPH
SHEPHERD & JAH MASON - ONE TWO ORDER
(2007)
DUBROOM
VIDEO REVIEW |
| Coming
from the Judgement Yard community center in
August Town Jamaica, here is their first
official video. The Judgement Yard was
founded by well-known dancehall artist
Sizzla, and serves as a place for young
Rastas to develop themselves musically and
otherwise.
It's a duet
by Jah Mason, another well known artist from
Judgement Yard, together with the up and
coming Joseph Shepherd. Riding a militant
steppers rhythm, the two vocalists chant
down Babylon once more while the viewer of
the video is being treated to a number of
sights from the community center.

GREGORY
ISAACS - TUNE IN (1978)
DUBROOM
VIDEO REVIEW |
| In
this rather rare clip, we can see a rather
young Gregory Isaacs as he performs for what
seems to be a television show. The kind of
material that most Reggae fans throughout
the world were not privy to see, as there
was no Internet Video back then.
The year is
1978, so when it comes to special video
effects there's nothing really fancy going
on during the clip. However, he performs in
front of a great background and the music
is, there's not really a need to say it but
let's do it anyway: great!

JOHNNY
CLARKE - just call me african roots
DUBROOM
VIDEO REVIEW |
| Brilliant
performance, in great sound and sight
quality: Johnny Clarke performing one of his
classics on the UK based Jools Holland TV
Show. A great band backs him, while a
professional crew records everything on
video.
When the
music was originally released sometime in
the 1970's, Johnny's voice was allready
quite remarkable. But now, decades later,
his voice has matured and is solid as a
rock, and sweet as candy in the same time.
