Mad Professor's new album "Dubtronic" (Ariwa/Ras) is pretty fried. In addition to some wackier than average dubs, this album gives the listener a dub slant on currently "hip" electronic styles (drum and bass, trip-hop). "Drum and Bass in the Asylum" and "Acid Queen" are d 'n' b with a dub rinse. "Disco Dub" uses a 4/4 beat as a tackboard for loopy effects and ends up sounding like a goofy version of a Chain Reaction project. The level of weirdness is fairly consistent throughout the entire album. Adventurous listeners take note. -------------------------------- Rodney Perkins (mailto:xxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx) "[Polo] is the finest thing a man and a horse can do together" -- Tommy Lee Jones
