Voices inside my Dread

For fans of the Police, The English Beat & Dub music, this new album entitled Dubxanne released on the German label Echo Beach should elevate your listening experience to the highest heights.

The Police catalog has been re-recorded in a Dub construct and features The Beat's Rankin' Roger, among others.

'There is so much crap out there'

Check out this killer interview with Kruder & Dorfmeister from 2007. They discuss the state of independent music (along with some interview clips with Kraak & Smaak) and tell it like it is.

Thanks to Jam Base for the link

No hassles...just chill

Tosca, featuring Richard Dorfmeister & Rupert Huber, have a new record out called No Hassle. Definitely Tosca, but in a much more ambient vibe. Check out the video of their latest single, "My First"

Also, if you are in Europe this summer, you can check out Tosca (and Dorfmeister) performing live their latest work HERE.
