This weeks featured artist album: Subatomic Sound System - On All Frequencies

Style: Dub / Dancehall / Hip Hop

For Fans Of: Thievery Corporation, King Tubby, Mad Proffesor

Subatomic Sound System ON ALL FREQUENCIES is a portrait of life in New York City done in words and sound. With an eclectic crew of men and women rolling over ten deep, it is a collection of snapshots seen through many different eyes, a reflection of a wide range of attitudes and experiences. The beauty of this city lies as much in the history of its vast musical traditions as it does in its reputation as a birthplace of innovation. Subatomic Sound System stays focused on both.

The album opens with a thumping hip hop beat, driving reggae bass line, squelchy dub echoes, and police sirens on the track Welcome To New York. At the midpoint of the album, ON ALL FREQUENCIES leans into more musically eclectic territory, with “Fly Free”, a cross between a reggae stepper, broken beat, and old school funk. Funky bass, super get down clav, and vintage guitar drive this riddim while a ton of African percussion and sultry heartfelt female vocals carry it home.
