Dub is an experimental offshoot of reggae that emerged in Jamaica in the late 1960s. It sparked a revolution in music production: dub was among the first to embrace heavy use of echo, reverb, filters, and creative remixing of original tracks. The result is music where the bass takes the lead role and every sound becomes part of a hypnotic space.

Dub history: from studio experiments to the world stage
Pioneers of dub include the legendary producers King Tubby, Lee “Scratch” Perry, and Augustus Pablo. They transformed reggae cuts into a distinct sonic art — stripping vocals, spotlighting bass, and applying expansive spatial processing.
By the 1980s, dub was shaping electronic music: techno, dub techno, jungle, dubstep, and even modern hip-hop inherited its sonic philosophy.
