Conscious Sounds - Thunder Mountain

Review by Pamela Jones

Thunder Mountain, the latest album by Conscious Sounds, is a mesmerizing journey through the depths of dub and reggae. The album features ten tracks that showcase the band's talent for blending traditional roots reggae with modern dub production techniques.

From the opening track "Rasta Man Chant" to the closing track "Thunder Mountain Dub," Conscious Sounds delivers a powerful and uplifting musical experience. The album is full of heavy basslines, skanking guitar riffs, and driving drum rhythms that are sure to get listeners moving.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Jah Is Love," which features a hauntingly beautiful vocal performance by guest singer Sista Awa. The track is a powerful reminder of the importance of love and unity in a world that can sometimes seem divided.

Another highlight of the album is "Dubbing in the Mountain," which features some of the most creative and innovative dub production on the album. The track is a masterclass in dub mixing, with swirling echoes, reverbs, and delays creating a hypnotic and immersive listening experience.

Summary by Pamela Jones

Thunder Mountain is a must-listen for fans of roots reggae and dub music. Conscious Sounds has once again proven themselves to be one of the most exciting and innovative bands in the genre, and this album is a testament to their talent and creativity.
