Mass-studio Dubs! [Cassette]

A cassette-only collection of scratchy one-away dubplates and 45s from the vaults of Jah Massagan Sound, featuring plates cut at the studios of legendary producers and engineers such as King Tubby, Lee Perry, Channel One, and Joe Gibbs among others during the peak of the roots sound in the mid 1970s through to the very early 1980s. Beginning in Leyton in 1972 owner-operator Lloyd, alongside childhood friend and amp builder Tony Mass, were part of a wave of reggae soundsystems formed in London and across the UK immediately after the Windrush generation. Focused on preserving and promoting the authentic Jamaican roots, Jah Massagan has remained a small but steadfast cornerstone in the East London scene more than 50 years later. Eljay Mass, the son of owner Lloyd, takes the reins for this cassette-only document, as the torch is passed on inter-generationally to continue the sound's work.
