Mount Dilaudid DUBS

subtractions and abstractions from
'Mount Dilaudid' by Mahmood Schricker and Michael Red

directly support here: michaelred.bandcamp.com/album/mount-dilaudid-dubs

four versions, created with knowing nods to tradition
- kept raw & immediate, with little pre-emptive thought, and no backwards movements or second-guessing. reacting on instinct and first inspirations. "live" or the spirit of "live".
- no new sounds. only source sounds from the original tracks
- maintaining the original structure of each track in most cases. and when not the case - breaking that structure boldly, but locking to the first new structure mapped out.
- heavy on the hypnotics, delays and reverbs
- heavy-handed on the subtraction. many principle elements of the original work were fully removed immediately, to force a deeper exploration and revealing of what's underneath and beside.
- making sure to actually experiment and come with new ideas and methods. and when using established methods and sounds, doing so respectfully and knowingly.

deepest respect the original dub innovators, and to all who push the sound. thank you to Mahmood, and acknowledgement to the music and players which inspired him. these dubs would not exist with out the originals they abstract from.

mixed, produced and (roughly) mastered by Michael Red
