Echo Beach Discollection, Vol. 2

For over 15 years the Echo Beach label group has stood for the best in reggae-flavoured sounds. At Echo Beach, dub has always been a philosophy, a way of life, with the term dub accorded very fluid boundaries. Good examples of how brilliantly Echo Beach covers the musical bandwidth of the genre are the excellent King Size Dub series and the Sound of Dub, the latter series featuring a superb collection of dub tracks from different countries, including the United States, France, South Africa and New Zealand. The labels versatility and variety is probably best showcased on the album serie Modern Wild Dub - Dread meets Disco Punk Rocker Downtown and WILD DUB featuring the latest disco punk courtesy of bands like LCD Soundsystem, Chicken Lips, Playgroup, Radio 4, !!!, Chicks On Speed clash with the oldstyle bands like The Clash, Generation X, The Ruts, Grace Jones and others. The latest series, the Echo Beach Discollection, opens up the next chapter, venturing into the field hitherto referred to as LOUNGE and now possibly threatened by extinction!!
