Mad Professor & Puls der Zeit – Meet in Berlin at Checkpoint Charlie (ROIR) Reviewed by Sadie O., 1/6/07 Dub/electronica by the top English dub producer and German rock/reggae/experimental outfit. Vocals mostly in German, often featuring breakthrough female German reggae singer Soer la Blanche. Lots of really interesting and unusual sounds – sort of Uber-dub. No FCCs that I could make out. I LOVE track 10, all tracks are good to excellent. 1. 3:24 **just horns and a bit of talking for several seconds, then downtempo skank with rather minimalist instrumentation. 2. 5:06 ***very downtempo skank with male and female processed vocals in German and English 3. 3:02 ** somewhat uptempo almost Rock Steady riddim with fun vocals, including Mad Professor himself, mostly in German. 4. 3:02 ***hard drum and bass, horns – very cool riddim! Female vocals in German, odd yelling in English. 5. 3:16 **pretty midtempo skank, lots of vocals in German. 6. 4:33 **rather menacing downtempo skank with mysterious noises and unintelligible talking as well as female vocals in German. 7. 7:10 *random radio noise, something about George Bush in German, odd little bouncy rhyme, than midtempo skank, mostly female vocals. Lots of effects and piano. 8. 5:32 ***really crazy bass and horn-driven downtempo riddim with crashing drumbeat, effects-laden male speaking in English. Kind of beyond dub… Ends with odd talking 9. 3:17 *pretty midtempo skank, female vocals in German. 10. 6:24 *****awesome horn and drum, downtempo riddim with bits of Eastern influence, female vocals in German. Ends with a bit of speaking in French. | ||
