About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

To coincide with the electronica revolution of the late '90s, Bill Laswell remixed a number of Bob Marley records as ambient dub for the Dreams of Freedom: Ambient Translations of Bob Marley in Dub album. If these songs were remixed by any other producer, the results could have been disastrous, but Laswell is one of the masters of intellectual dub -- he knows what to take out and what to add, creating a spacious, cavernous mix that is provocative without being extreme. Some longtime Marley fans will balk at the very idea of the album, but the results are undeniably impressive, even if it's a little too restrained and cerebral to qualify as first-rate ambient dub for clubs. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

August 10, 2003: I teach Yoga and I love to use this CD, the songs flow from one to the next. It is mostly just music, not a lot of singing. I especially like it for an Active Yoga or Power Yoga Practice. Any Bob Marley fans who happen to be in the class really enjoy it & the people who don't even know it or recognize it enjoy it as well. Very soothing & yet upbeat at the same time.
