In 2012 they released their debut album &#8216;Studio Live Dub&#8217; and now, after 4 years, we get an EP &#8216;For the Benefit of Dub: Chapter One&#8217;. It&#8217;s definitely been worth to wait that long for that mature compositions showing what the art of dub really is, what a dub version of a tune means and how to mix your national identity into it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The release is opened by &#8216;Naturaalne Mustika&#8217;, which immediately carries you along with it \u2013 I don&#8217;t know Estonian language, but the vocals alongside the music are hypnotizing and the dub version proves it greatly, having every instrument brilliantly exposed. The next tune named &#8216;Rannapiiga &#8216; is a show off of their amazing horns section and the climat is a bit jazzy, what is it&#8217;s big asset; the dub version contains a nice melodica. Following tune &#8216;Mina kes ma sundisin tahtedest&#8217; causes a vivification, the vocalist &#8216;twists his toungue&#8217; and chats with an extraordinary charisma on a heavy rhythm and the dub version emphasizes beloved horns with a lot of effects. The last one on the album is &#8216;Huhtikuu&#8217;, which has 2 versions and is the most hypnotic, pretty crazy tune with versions I liked more than the original. Congratulations to Uss Energia crew for such a meaningful EP. I am looking forward to more of their productions, they definitely know what dub is and how to use it. You can hear King Tubby&#8217;s school in their music if it&#8217;s up to mixing and another hearings made me feel that they have Polish Paprika Korps and Ragana albums on their shelves.<\/p>\n<p>Links:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uusenergia.bandcamp.com\/\" class=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/uusenergia.bandcamp.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/uus-energia\" class=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/uus-energia<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"customHeaderWrapper\"><\/div>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Uss Energia is an Estonian crew that started their adventure with reggae strongly influenced by dub in 2009.
