JAH WOBBLE redux (Purple Slatter Vinyl) is a mélange of dub-infused goodness that will have you skanking in your living room faster than you can say "rhythm section".
Wobble, the legendary bassist and one-time Pil stalwart, has dug deep into his musical bag of tricks and come up trumps with this latest offering.
The album kicks off with the hypnotic groove of "Dubhammer", a track that will have you convinced you're at a smoky London club in the late 70s.
Wobble's basslines are as sinuous as ever, weaving in and out of the mix like a snake charmer on speed.
Tracks like "Purple Slatter" and "Skankin' with the Molluscs" showcase Wobble's knack for blending reggae rhythms with electronic textures, creating a sonic landscape that is both timeless and utterly contemporary.
It's impossible to sit still while listening to this album - trust me, I tried.
But it's not all just danceable beats and groovy basslines.
Wobble's collaborations with guest vocalists like Hollie Cook on "Sirens Calling" add a touch of melancholy to the proceedings, reminding us that even in the midst of all the fun, there's always a hint of darkness lurking around the corner.
In conclusion, JAH WOBBLE redux is a triumph of dub mastery that will delight fans old and new.
So put on your dancing shoes, pour yourself a rum and coke, and let Wobble take you on a journey through the depths of bass-heavy bliss.
You won't regret it, mate.
