À propos de King Tubby

The architect of dub music, King Tubby transformed the mixing desk into an instrument. Working from his home studio in Kingston's Waterhouse district, he pioneered techniques of stripping vocals and layering echo, reverb, and delay that reshaped not only reggae but the entire future of electronic music.
