MDonaldson (8sided.blog) No one knows where dub goes. UK duo Holy Tongue are doing their damndest to track it down. Witness: Post-punk spliced with dub the way it was done, anachronistic but futuristic like if at the end of Primer the time machine room was revealed to be This Heat’s Cold Storage studio. It’s refreshing in the 2020s to hear something so raw yet technical, unsequenced but rhythmically tight. Favorite track: Misinai.
Lord Dubious

Lord Dubious Steppers/rockers style drum and bass workouts for the dub heads. Again, if you are familiar with "Dub Meltdown" by Bill Laswell and Style Scott on the all mighty Wordsound label you will know what to expect. If you're into this, you should definitely check that one! Favorite track: Erev.

Levrikon Chilly, mechanized post-dub in the style of 23 Skidoo, This Heat, Dub Syndicate, etc. Absolutely drowning in reverb, it sounds like it was recorded in a cold storage locker, or at the end of a concrete drainage pipe. Favorite track: Emet.

whipcraze61 Absolute mind-belter! Valentina Magaletti and Al Wootton are killing it with this one. Deadly rhythms! This sits well along early African Head Charge and Bill Laswell' & Style Scott's "Dub Meltdown" masterpiece. Been searching for something like this for years. R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

about

Holy Tongue is a collaboration between percussionist Valentina Magaletti, best known for her work with Vanishing Twin, Tomaga, UUUU, Raime, Nicolas Jaar and Jandek among many others, and producer Al Wootton (TRULE Records, FKA Deadboy).
This first EP is a product of an improvised session in East London. Heavily influenced by dub reggae, the two bring a mutual appreciation for the experimental dub of On-U-Sound, Muslimgauze, and post-punk bands such as Liquid Liquid and 23 Skidoo to the forefront of the sound.
The result is an EP of psychedelic, free-form, high energy, spiritual dub-dance music.
Amidah Records is an offshoot of TRULE Records, specialising in more experimental sounds.
