Each of us has our own particular taste in music and our own favorite genres.
Nevertheless, what if two of your favorite genres of music were mixed together? Though it’s sometimes nice to hear these genres all on their own, mixing them up can create something new and inspiring as well.
If you love both dub music and ska jazz, then this one is worth your time!
Dub is a huge part of the electronic dance music genre, and this Italian dub crew called the Wicked Dub Division offers fresh electronic beats.
Their jamming rhythms are sure to have your feet glued to the dance floor. This group is the definition of innovative and hypnotic!
The group decided to team up with another Italian professional group called the North East Ska Jazz Orchestra, who always bring their full selves to performing ska and jazz music.
The duo arranged a bunch of songs together, and each one of them is just mind-blowing. It’s amazing to see something so new come out of these two genres!
In all, the groups performed two songs together.
One of them was the 2017 song “Mama” and the other was “You Can Fly,” which was released just eight months ago. The groups were so refined with their styles that they found a way to make their collaboration not only new to their fans but also appreciated by everyone in the world.
Both of the performances are great, but let’s focus on the first song on the list.
“Mama” is sure to take you back to the world of old-time reggae.
Since dub music is considered a heavy derivation of reggae and ska jazz is a genre that came from Jamaican and Afro-American roots, this combination is more than perfect.
The North East Ska Jazz Orchestra brought their saxophones, trumpets and trombones to spice up the electronic tunes of WDD.
It was an epic dance party in the video as everyone was swaying along to the sweet sound of the air horns and the beat-dropping bass and drums.
The positive lyrics of the songs sung by the vocalists in the set added to the beauty of this musical masterpiece. The reggae vibes and the electrifying atmosphere that their song brings makes you want to listen to it non-stop!
You really cannot doubt the dub and ska jazz chemistry in this video!
Everyone watching couldn’t help but to be hooked by the music.
The song “Mama” was finally released three years ago on October 31st, 2020.
They described it as the “top orchestra vibes and deep dubwise.” Wicked Dub Division composed and mixed the music while the North East Ska Jazz Orchestra aided in the performance of the song.
The music video was uploaded by Reggaeville on YouTube and it has earned more than seven million views.
The result of this collaboration is definitely one of the best pieces of dub and ska music that jazz fans are sure to love. This music is perfect for relaxation time especially when you are on the beach hanging out with your buddies.
