TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE – DIGITAL-B 1989
Too Good To Be True – Digital-b Overview
Dub music has always been important in Jamaican culture, giving new life to classic reggae and dancehall songs. This new dub release fits right into the current reggae scene, especially in sound system sessions where DJs play versions to keep the crowd moving. The music is built around a strong riddim, with deep bass and sharp percussion, making it perfect for modern dancefloors. The arranger behind this dub cut has a big influence on its sound. By stripping back vocals and adding echo and reverb, the arranger creates a new experience for listeners. This style honors the roots of dub from the 1970s while still sounding fresh for today’s audiences. Admiral Tibett is featured with several songs, including "Don't Come Love Me," "Feel The Pain," "In The Ghetto," "Oh My Lady," and "Wrong Place." Admiral Tibett is well known for his conscious lyrics and smooth delivery. His song "Feel The Pain" is a favorite among reggae fans for its heartfelt message. Thriller U appears with tracks like "Baby I Love You," "Close The Door," "I Think It's Love," "Starting All Over Again," and "Sweetest Sound." Thriller U is famous for his hit "I'll Prove It to You," which was a major success in the late 1980s. This dub version brings together these artists’ voices and the arranger’s creative touch, making it a standout in today’s reggae sessions.
