UK vinyl LP pressing of this 2011 release. Thomas Wesley Pentz AKA Diplo - one half of the production team behind the popular hybrid Reggae project Major Lazer, lends his eclectic ear to Rudimentary, a guided tour through the Greensleeves Reggae catalog. These specially selected tracks present eight crucial hits chronicling Reggae's ascent from Dub to Dancehall in the '80's on a high quality, limited edition vinyl LP. The historical relevance of these selections shines a light on Diplo's production influences and expert knowledge of the Reggae genre. For new converts to Reggae or collectors of crucial tracks from Reggae's classic era on vinyl, Rudimentary is rudimentary. Greensleeves.

We need clips from these tracks!!
There's pretty much only one problem with Amazon and music.... There aren't any previews of the albums or tracks. I'm basically buying vinyl on deaf ears. I really was looking forward to some Diplo EDM not his reggae album, which is a great album.... But not what I thought it was!!

Great even for the non-rastas.
I've always liked and dabbled in reggae, but just a casual thing. So it's great that one of my favourite DJs made a mixtape for me, to help me a little further on the path. I understand it's mostly from a certain era of reggae, and I definitely love this era! Props to it and Diplo. You know you can never go wrong with Diplo, no matter what avenue he's exploring.

dubとは知りませんでした。
blow your headとかmajor lazerの流れで、diploだからという事で購入。 dubアルバムとは知らなかった為、初めて聴いた時は目が点になった。 とはいえ、これを通じて今はlone rangerやranking dread等を聴く様になったので、良き入門アルバムになったと思う。 元々dubには全く興味が無かったが、そんな私でも3曲目のjoker smoker〜9曲目のgunshot mek daughter dropの一連の曲は妙にツボを突く(声、ユルいけどクセになる歌い方等)面白い曲だと感じた。
