Dub Gabriel

Bass Jihad

Azra International

"Bass Jihad" uses an approach of understatement and circular rhythms akin to Bill Laswell, Jah Wobble, and Muslimgauze. This is high-end music from the low end of the sonic spectrum. Out of cosmopolitan New York, Dub Gabriel internationalizes his drum-and-bass music with subtle dashes of world music in his hypnotic trance tunes. This album is a nu-dub travelogue taking you on a tonal trip to the streets of Brooklyn, deserts of the Middle East, temples of India, and Jamaican hills. (4)
