Latin Dub Sound System at Camino

November 19, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Latin Dub Sound System

Will be performing their Dj set @

Camino.

Once again it’s latin dub sound system time. If you were their last time you will remember that Latin Dub played an ecletic mix of latin and dub style music, ranging from all the style’s possible within them two genre’s. Expect heavey beats and heavy bass. Do not expect it to be a strictly Latin night and do not expect it to be a strictly Dub night expect it to be an education in music focusing on Latin Dub. There will also be some accopinament from Conga players as well as guitar and possibly horns.

The venue Camino is also a very cool place located at The Regents QTR just off of Pentoville Road, Kings Cross End.

Indios Bravos Review – Cargo – London – 2008

September 14, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Indios Bravos

What Brilliant night.

I took my boyfriend (who is of Latin American descent) down to check out some Polish Reggae. And as i have been to many Latin gigs over the years of which he has introduced to me, i thought it was about time to repay the favour, as every other polish gig that have ever taken him to, has been very much a pop orientated affair, something of which he has no time for, regardless of what language it is sung in.

Now i have to admit that i, myself am not the greatest fan of reggae, but i am obviously aware of such reggae luminaries as, Bob Marley and Peter Tosh to mention but a few, so, i thought to myself i would give this a shot, and i have to say, the evening was a thouroughly enjoyable one.

The music was great, the vibe, even better and to top it all off, Indios Bravos came out with a fantastic encore of “when the Music is Over” by The Doors. Which trully brought the house down and brought a huge smile to my partner’s face; as it was one of 3 songs he knew. Bless.

Just maybe he will learn enough Polish to sing the blues with me as well.

Indios Bravos – Polish Band, Spanish Name, Reggae Music.

If that is not a revoultuon then nothing is!

Peace

Latin Dub Sounds System – Mini Album Launch Review

September 11, 2008 · Leave a Comment

After flying up to Bricklane from work which is in South London i was really  hoping this would be a good night as the day at work was an unusually stressful day. Anyway like i said i was hoping for a good evening and boy i was not let down.

After walking to the new Music venue at the Vibe Bar which is upstairs i was plesantly surprised to find venue stylishly decked out and there was some food on offer. All of which was Latin American Cusine. So i grab my self a plate of the Empanadas, Salsa and Guacamole that was on offer, mmmm, and then went to the Bar for a drink to wash down this fine food and listen to all the Latin Flava’s being played by the DJ.

The Show Started with a Live Flamenco Guitarist and Dancer. The crowd had to huddle round to be able to get a view that created a very intimate and energetic mood which set the tone for the rest of the evening. After 20 mins of some blistering guitar work ferocious Dancing from the duo we were now ready to Hear what Latin Dub Sound System had to say, and believe you me, they ended up saying a lot.

Latin Dub opened with an acoustic set of their song 15years sung by Amy, what a voice, absolutely incredible. This was to be the only acoustic bit of the set as by the 2nd song the entire band which could be called an orchestra of sorts started to have their say. Slightly shaky but with so much energy and passion it was difficult not to get into the mood. By the time Sonido came on with YunGun on the mic the band was now in full swing and from there on in there was no holding back. The band manage to keep this high octane energy level which was amazing as the room was blisstering hot and must have been even hotter under the stage lights. And what a way to finish with Millon Dan on the 2nd to last song called Futuristic, what a catchy Flava and then for the final push up a level (if that was actually possible) on DanceHall Samba which practically destroyed the place as the band Just Jammed this song out in all manner of style’s allowing all the MC’s to spit a verse or two.

And then just like that the band was off stage bringing us back down to earth with aplomb. By this point there was so much energy in the room that i got the feeling that people wanted the night to go on longer but being a Wednesday night the reality of another long day at work in the morning brought me back down from this wonderful high that this Band the Latin Dub Sound System gave me and i am 100% positive they gave the same if not similar high to the rest of the audience.

Wow is all i have to say. I can and only see this band getting better and better and i for one hope they succeed.

Thanks for making a rubbish day great.
