“The first dub albums we listened to were records mixed by Scientist. Laura Lee learned to play bass by listening to Scientist Wins the World Cup. To be able to work alongside Scientist, a legend in the history of dub, is an honor. This is our dub version of Con Todo El Mundo.” – Khruangbin…
The Viking of 6th Avenue s seminal 1969 album back in print after more than a decade.
