Rome's Real Rock Records continue their heroic work in unearthing the vinyl holy grails of UK dub legends Earthquake Studios with the next two LPs from the duo of TNT Roots and Winston Dread following the very gratefully received reissue of their epic debut record Dub Harder Than Steel earlier this year (which incidentally is also getting a repress and available to pre-order if you missed it first time round).
Originally released in 1993 Earthquake's second LP The Legacy Of Dub really does feels like a landmark one of a kind record that combines the pioneering sound of UK electronic dub sound with influences from the homegrown domestic dance scene, in particular bleep techno, to create what feels like a blueprint for much of the UK bass music that followed
Just have listen to the extraordinary 21st Century and I think you'll get an idea of what I mean - still sounding like nothing else out there.
