Alpendub
Dub music is a remix style developed in Jamaica that takes just the rhythm track of a song, then lays on heavy reverb and avant-garde production effects. A few years ago Robert Cummings, a Canadian drummer living in Berlin, began to apply dub ideas to folk music from the Bavarian Alps. He called the project “Alpendub.” Produced by Monika Mueller.
