Mystic Urchin introduces the masterful debut album from Transdub Massiv. Take a sonic sojourn through a modern and soulful exploration of dub and roots. roots that are steeped in influences like King Tubby: Lee Scratch Perry and the Honorable Robert Nesta Marley: and warmly fused with ambient electronic influences that evoke the textures of Boards Of Canada: Future Sound Of London and Aphex Twin. Featuring the provocative dancehall siren CeCile as a Cheshire Cat-like tour guide down through the banyan tree roots: the psychedelic dub poetry stylings of Sizzla longside Christine Straw (Ms. Jamaica Universe 2004): the sensual magic of the one and only Meshell Ndegeocello: as well as fiercely up-and-coming Jamaican talents like Farenheit: Jovi Rockwell: Rootz Underground and the sizzlin Tami Chynn (Universal).
