" Mixing electronic sounds with world-music influences and fieldrecordings (such as Muezzin chants in Istanbul, sounds caught during a Sufi Ceremony in the middle of the Turkish region of Kappadokia), “EPP1” is a fascinating and imaginative slow stream of electro-acoustic melodies and sonic landscapes. A melting-pot of sounds inspired by different cultures and their representative music, which reflects the mix of cultures in modern cities. “EPP1” is the result of a collaborative work between musicians with different backgrounds, poets, video-makers and random people met on the road. The album has been recorded in The Brandy Alexander Project’s home studio in Brixton (London) between 2007 and 2011." Brandy Alexander Project - september 2011
" Travels, encounters, mix of cultures and sounds, that's the story of this album, and also the kind of stories we like to tell ! EPP1 is the perfect illustration of a clever conversation between genres and eras." LCL - september 2011

" Manudub is a long time dub activist, animating a radio show in Marseille France, and also a long time connexion of LibreCommeLair. This collection of tracks from the Elephant Room Sessions is a perfect LP to chill out with during this 2011 sumer !" LCL - july 2011
" I would define this LP as a travel diary with a " Lo-fi higrade computer Dub 2.0 " soundtrack : homestudio dub inspired by jamaican & punk philosophy of DIY, blended with inspirations and energy stored during my excursions in Asia. This is also the result of years sharing with a lot of other "dub activists" from around the web, the track with Leah is a good example of this process. I call this different communities & networks "Dub 2.0"..." Manudub - july 2011

::: ARTIST BIO :::
Manudub discovered DUB in the early 80’s through the punk energy from bands like The Clash, The Slits & such, which drove him to the Jamaican masters such as Prince Far I & King Tubby,Jah Shaka... Supporter of the DIY philosophy, he builds up his home studio and begins to produce some electronic dub tracks while working at " Wax records", the indie-electronic record-shop of Marseille. Probably the best place to deepen his musical culture... For the past 10 years, this French dub-activist has shared his vision of dub & bass culture through several radio shows on "Radio Grenouille", and played as a DJ in different venues and festivals, such as Szeiget, Air Libres and many others clubs... Manudub also worked with several artists of the dub planet, from China to Jamaica, England to Japan… His motto ? “No boundaries but DUB”.
