Mato: Hollywoo Dub Vinyl LP

Imagine if Lalo Shiffrin, Nino Rota, Giorgio Moroder, Ennio Morricone or John Williams had been blunted at Lee Scratch Perrys Black Ark Studio Mato does Hollywood, and its a dubby trip through classic movie themes with the French producer covering 12 instantly recognizable tunes. That might sound gimmicky on paper, but listen to the tracks; as hes proved on other projects, like Homework Dub, Mato churns out QUALITY dub reggae, every track built from the ground up. Check out Condor Dub!,Psycho Dub, Imperial March Dub, Coffy is the Color Dub, and Shaft Dub.
