12" GENRE/S: Dub Techno, Electronica TRACKLISTS: 1. Deepchord ft. Linval Thompson 2.Pulshar ft. Linval Thompson 3.Deepnaut ft. Linval Thompson 4.Braulio Lam ft. Linval Thompson SHORT INFO: Avantroots is one of the leading dub related labels in recent years taking the genre to its furthest and freshest perspectives while still respecting the history and the figures inside it. One of those historical figures is the legendary Linval Thompson who's credits and list of those he influenced are pages long. To have Linval be the lead on this project truly makes this a unique and special release. 'World Crisis' is Linval's message and it is as definitive as ever. There is a lot of thought put into each step and portion of this project. The overall traditional dub concept is to feature different voices over the same instrumental where this, flips the script and each version has a different electronic music producer add their talents to create their own signature account. The result is an extraordinary and well composed EP. Deepchord, Deepnaut, Pulshar and Braulio Lam were specifically chosen to head up this treasured task of taking 'World Crisis' into their realms. The Deepnaut version is a true essence of the future of a more mature island late night cultured dub techno sound. The track shimmers in a euphoric glow that covers you like a sun on the beach in summer. Linval's voice is front and center and one could say this may be the most single oriented as it uses the most vocals of any of the renditions here. Braulio Lam's submission has all the makings of a classic styled dub track. While the beat is transcendent, everything else is processed in a new school way. And the technique is next level to be clear. Next is Deepchord's version. To say this is the deepest and most techno might not be much of a surprise. The groove is addictive and the chords sampled into the rhythm while the melody ebbs and flows are pure magic. Lastly, Pulshar breaks things down to the starkest of the choices and one of the most hypnotic. Pablo Bolivar and Sergio Sainz Vidal from Pulshar have a knack for injective some serious island vibes to the electronic scene. The artwork is also special here. It respects the history of dub culture while advancing the application as it uses AI generated images combined with human elements. The pictures support the message of the 'World Crisis' speaks on by Linval Thompson. This is a special release no doubt. Avant-Roots are very happy with the variety offered by the artists of their label and this release. They shined when it came to harnessing the essence of this track and infusing it into their particular version of electronic dub.
