One of the most important representatives of world dub, Mad Professor, comes to Chile to commemorate the 31 album years No Protection, its historic collaboration with Massive Attack.
For it, the producer, Guyanese-British engineer and remixer, will be presented twice in the country, with a date on Santiago and another in Valparaiso.
In the case of the capital, the show will take place on Saturday 17 October at Rome Theater, located in San Diego 236, Meanwhile he Sunday 18 It will be the turn of the Trotamundos Room in Valparaíso, which is located on the street Blanco 1253.
Tickets for both shows are on sale through Portal Tickets, since $20.000 to Santiago, more charges, and $18.000 to Valparaiso, also more service charges.
A work that changed the rules
In February of 1995, Massive Attack invited Neil Fraser—his real name—to deconstruct Protection from the dub. What resulted was No Protection, an album that took the dark sound of Bristol and ran it through echo techniques, reverb and deep bass that Mad Professor had perfected in his studio Yes Sounds in south london.
The result was not a simple remix, was a complete reimagining that merged two worlds that until then they had barely touched each other: British trip hop and Jamaican roots dub.
“Radiation Ruling the Nation” and “Karmacoma” They are two of the most recognizable moments of that work, and they will be at the show.
Four decades of history
Mad Professor has been at the forefront of dub and musical production for more than four decades. From Ariwa Sounds, founded in 1979, produced and worked with figures such as Lee “Scratch” Perry, Sade and Depeche Mode, consolidating itself as one of the fundamental names of the genre at a global level.
Their live proposal is an immersion in sound, with layers of dub, real-time effects and a physicality of the bass that generates a vibration that is difficult to find on Chilean stages.
