Legacies of Resistance: The Evolution of Dub

Dub history talk with Richard Akingbehin and guests

A discussion, not a performance: history, politics and studio practice around dub, with the focus on sound system culture, colonial afterlives and the way dub turned the mix into a political tool. Expect references to roots reggae, dub poetry, production technique and the community side of the form.
