Basque Dub Foundation (BDF) - Sustraidun Roots Dub

BDF's debut album is a collection of instrumental and dub workouts featuring a mix of original material, and some Roots classics covered, such as Abyssinians' "Satta Amassagana", Junior Byles' "Fade Away" and Augustus Pablo's "Cassava Piece". "Sustraidun Roots Dub" revives the spirit of the original Jamaican 70's dub, while incorporating the aesthetic of the 90's U.K. digital dub and a strong dose of traditional Spanish and Basque melodies. Recorded in Bilbao and London and produced by Iñaki Yarritu "Sustraidun Roots Dub" included some of the sought after productions previously available only as dubplates that had been played exclusively by London and Spanish Sound Systems.
The Album features U.K. dub stalwarts such as Mad Professor, Dub Judah, Demondo, Dougie Wardrop (Concious Sounds) and Derek "Demondo" Fevrier. All these ingredients have been combined in a album that has been regarded as a landmark internationally:
