Yes Massive, We are continuing our Remix Artist Spotlight series here on the IMR blog, and today we had a chat with Neil Perch, man at the controls of the mighty Zion Train. Neil is another heavyweight joining the all-star remix team for the Dirty Dubsters ft. Turbulence "When The Road Calls" Remix EP.
IM: So it must be about a year since you've been to our home town...you're no stranger to Dublin, how do you find the crowd Boss?
NP: Hoping to be back in DUBlin in autum 2014...I love the Dublin crowd, musically educated, relaxed people who like to relax and have a dance....just our style..
IM: What was it that turned you on to the Turbulence track?
NP: I think Turbulence has a great voice so I was happy at the chance to work with it!
IM: Obviously you have a deep love for dub and reggae music, so who are your favourite roots-reggae artists out there at the moment?
NP: The best new JA reggae for me has to be Jah 9 although other places are producing some great acts too, the global reggae scene has never been so diverse and strong...
IM: Your live dubbing format has been an inspiration to Irish Moss flag bearers Dirty Dubsters to change their live set-up to vibe their material in a similar fashion. As an essentially "analogue" performance act, how do you sit with the digital revolution?
NP: I think analogue sounds great - but digital is a valid future...For performance you need to be DOING something analogue ;) We are all analogue people no? So to entertain people you need analogue actions and music... Most importantly the methods are much less important than the MUSIC!
Dirty Dubsters ft. Turbulence "When The Road Calls" Remix EP is out NOW on Juno Download
