Perry rarely sounds this smooth and the On-U Sound has newly expanded depth and production value, seemingly influenced by classic Perry work. This incarnation of “Blackboard Jungle” has a brooding heavy sound, while somehow remaining atmospheric. Here’s the bonus: you can almost see Lee Perry on a street corner somewhere in London muttering, “Respect my shit, respect my piss”. He’s also there to warn of the rampant Fungus STD (Fungus Rock)? Chalk it up to some healthy clowning, as also heard on “I Foo China” - love that Black Uhuru chorus vibe too. “I Do Voodoo” feels like a final transmission from the Dub-Ship lost in 1975.
　　All the tracks featuring Ari Up, including “Surrender Dub” and “Idiot Dub”, rip into some excellent dubstep sounds, immediately re-energizing the rest of the album. Taking the time to re-sample Ari’s vocals fold her into the composition beautifully. Throughout the track selections there is a strong but expected current of activism, including an “Evil Burma Dub” laced with South Asian instrumentation. I had a taste of this album before the review as the vaguely familiar melody of “Chrome Optimism” made DJ rotations. The Dub saga continues with re-dubs and re-mixes of the earlier Perry tracks accompanied by whole new tracks that, if left off of this album, would have been missed.
　　The additional elements within the re-dubs are exciting and engaging, taking the trip into an alternate dimension back from Planet Dub. While the original Perry tracks are irreverent, the collaborative dubs take on new life between the stars; just tripping-out all over Dubblestandart’s new material. Completely new rhythms enter and attack the powerful, established themes in all the remixes. G-Corp’s dubstep remix brings a third new life to “Chase The Devil” on this album alone. “I Do Voodoo (Rob Smith RSD Rmx)” goes to the darker, space wars side you might have expected from the original. “Wadada Means Love (Featuring Prince Far-I & Trueman Chewstick) [Tom Watson Dubstep Rmx]” takes on a Leftfield sound, and “Blackboard Jungle Dub [Subatomic Sound System Dubstep Rmx]” is a banging dubstep track with a genuine tone missed by most in the genre. The re-treads of previous Dubblestandart material also burn well for fuel.
　　Overall, a legitimate step forward for Dubblestandart. Respect their sh*t.
