SCIENTIST At the Controls of Dub

Scientist's name will be found on many dub releases in people's record collections. His connection to King Tubby is inseparable and many would say that when dub had fallen on quieter times it was Scientist who breathed new life into it. His pared-down mixing style suited the new dancehall reggae sound that came as the 70's rolled into the 80's. Such was his stature that album's were now sold highlighting his name in their titles: Scientist vs Prince Jammy and Scientist meets the Space Invaders to name but two. Jamaican Recordings have compiled some tuff rare tracks from the same period.
