Greensleeves Records, the iconic U.K. label, has joined forces with the mighty Iration Steppas to embark on a journey deep into the echo chamber on their new collaboration, Dubs From The Foundation. This release follows the critically acclaimed Soundsystem compilations with Channel One Soundsystem and Jah Shaka.
This gatefold double album, carefully curated by revered soundman Mark Iration, features choice vocal cuts from the vaults of the legendary label—tracks he has championed for nearly forty years. The compilation includes music from Jamaican legends such as Michael Prophet, Johnny Osbourne, Hugh Mundell, Wailing Souls, and many more. As Mark has been at the vanguard of dub throughout his incredible career, it’s only fitting to shine the musical spotlight on dub as well. The second disc of the album includes heavyweight dub counterparts from the likes of Augustus Pablo, Roots Radics, and The Revolutionaries, completing a powerful and immersive listening experience.
Dubs From The Foundation comes complete with exclusive photographs from Mark’s personal archive, contributions from esteemed photographer Elliot Baxter, and original printed inner sleeves designed by longtime Greensleeves collaborator Tony McDermott.
