* Roostman Bob writes a nice review on the CD Tribute To
Mikey Dread:
If you go listen to the best of reggae
CD in 2008: "a tribute to Mikey Dread", you might think that hear the lost
tapes of the master himself Dread himself, but all 15 songs by Eric van
Drunen Littel responded in his own studio set dlstudio111 , supplemented by
help from friends or people he has come to know over the past years. Van
Drunen Littel could I Arkonoid Dub Experience, which contributed 2 songs to
the CD collection time to unite, an overview of Dutch and Belgian reggae
artists in late 2007 on the label recordings Radical Teen Angel appeared. The
CD opens with tribute to Mickey Dread the zodiac signs lasting nearly ten
minutes as a number one album of the Clash could stand in mind, I hear Joe
Strummer and Mikey Dread in singing style dj skank over there. The trouble
we hear a number of contributions that Eric Asher-E via the website of Black
Star Foundation acquainted with Joep Smeenk, which Eric never It's Happening
in the band has played, they play the song to go with, in one or somehow
reminds me that number to double by UB40 think only better. In the song
situation dub plays Robert Fleminks (manager Strawl & Out of Many) organ and
subtle than that there was a delicious gitaarsoundje Riddem you can not sit
still. This Riddem would also look good in a soundsystem anywhere nice over
it can be sung. On the last song tribute to his daughter Yara Mikey may
enjoy the VST synthesizer, which is not without merit. Fifteen mostly
instrumental tracks how often you played them the better they are. The CD is
called tribute to Mikey Dread Mikey Dread as a unique and idiosyncratic
sound within the reggae radio DJ and was also very special. Zodiac signs for
me was a very special time and therefore free number to make a conscious
choice to start and finish so the words of Eric.
