Listening Session
First released in Jamaica in late 1972, Upsetters 14 Dub Black Board Jungle – produced by Lee “Scratch” Perry and mixed by King Tubby – is widely regarded as one of the first full-length dub albums and a true landmark in reggae history. It established dub as a genre defined by creative studio intervention. Now, 54 years later, Cologne-based label Week-End Records is excited to re-release this monumental album in its original version featuring all 14 tracks.
The album’s newly restored master will be presented in its entirety during an album listening session on the club’s Freifeld floor. David Katz, Lee “Scratch” Perry’s biographer and author of Dub Revolution, will give an introduction, followed by a Q&A.
With U14DBBJ, a group of musicians led by composer and arranger Jorik Bergman will perform selected tracks of this iconic album live, and our dear friend Olaf Karnik will play a DJ-set, framing the afternoon.
Week-End Records carries forward the artistic vision and musical ethos of the annual Week-End Fest, which celebrates its 15th anniversary this year from November 5-7.
Admission 10 €
