Guest Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 So im looking for artists that produce dub/ambient or whatever you like to call it that has some groove & flow in them aswell as melodies. Not just the beatless soundscape chillout that is so common these days (which I enjoy aswell for that matter). Any suggenstions? Quote
RAH Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 stress assasin, and check out v/a - a magical journey, which is not much like OTT but is still dub-influenced... Quote
Fugpuggler Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 doof, abakus, younger brother, bluetech... i guess thats all i can think of at the moment oh! and get the Gargoyles tracks, its ott + posford Quote
psytones Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Future primetive .. wrong spelling I guess. But its a nice mix between shulman and OTT Quote
sherlockalien Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 nothing I have heard yet gets to ott´s level, unfortunately... all the rest of the chill stuff I listen is dubby too but not really like ott, so I dont know how much of it you would like... do you like more happier summer-feeling chill? If so, check out abakus and nada, v.a. wider horizons and v.a. butterfly dawn.... do you like more mid-eastern arab feeling? if so, check out kaya project and angel tears 3... do you like darker night feeling? if so, check out phutureprimitive.. do you like colder electric melodic feeling? if so, check out bluetech Quote
traveller Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 not that similar but really good: j.viewz Quote
RAH Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 i really don't think Stress Assassin gets the props it should... Within the Office of Eye and Ear is nothing short of amazing and Carrier Track is up to par. the thing is, it's dub spread with psychedelic influences and not the other way around... who knew europeans could make such fine sultry caribbean music... i love it...

amphiton Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 We definitely need a pinned 'Recommendations' thread. Quote
slyman604 Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 not electronic but you can hear the influence from augustus pablo in otts melodies. if you like ott's melodies, check out pablo, his melodies are so beautifull. Quote
Guest Rain Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 We definitely need a pinned 'Recommendations' thread. 352513[/snapback] naaaaah it's safe always having new threads about recommending stuff.... share thoughts is the spirit Quote
sherlockalien Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 not that similar but really good: j.viewz 352500[/snapback] yeah, nothing to do with ott, but I like it a lot too... though 2 or 3 tracks in the cd could have been not done hehe Quote
amphiton Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 If you like Ott, check out the Liquid Sound Design (that's sublabel of Dragonfly) releases. There are nice compilations with Ott participating in them. Quote
Guest Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 I have got albums from Doof, Abakus, Younger Brother, Bluetech & Phuture Primitive. And the complication Wider Horizons aswell (awesome btw). I dig them all but as someone said, I think OTT plays in an own league really and it seems hard to find artists that I find equally great (it would be Younger Brother then). Thanks for all the tips and I will try to check some of them out. Quote

Tox Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 he did give you the full name Augustus Pablo : a living Rastafari legend, "MAAN" Quote
qa2pir Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 Ott is not that special... But i admit very few psy-chillout releases are possible to listen to without doing something else at the same time, which is possible with ott. He's got nice melodies but the music is a bit too shallow... But just a bit. Woops, didn't participate with anything constructive in the thread =( Quote
Cinos Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 Ott is damn good, I just realized that yesterday. All the tracks on his album are great. Quote
Ov3rdos3 Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 Ott is damn good, I just realized that yesterday. All the tracks on his album are great. 353071[/snapback] Yeah, OTT is brilliant. In Dub is better than his album though, but goddamn, he is very good. Quote
Frontier Psychiatrist Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 nothing I have heard yet gets to ott´s level, unfortunately... 352498[/snapback] Word not that similar but really good: j.viewz 352500[/snapback] Word2 Yeah, OTT is brilliant. In Dub is better than his album though, but goddamn, he is very good. 353078[/snapback] Word3 Quote
el brujo Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 I think Children of the Bong is a little dub oriented too try that one and a lot of lsd compilations wander around those fields heck a lot of ambient came out of UK actually they re into dubby terrotories Quote
furthur Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 man, nobody has said androcell yet? amazing music, somewhat in the vein of ott's (possibly one of the closest to ott's style), but noone really makes music exactly like him. he is also coming out with a new album soon in genral here are my dub recommendations, some similar to ott, some not: kukan-dub-lagan (no need for a discussion on the merits of his music here, ok pavel?) omnimotion is dubby, more like stressassassin than ott as good as bluetech is, i find him nothing like ott obviously get hallucinogen in dub if you like ott pitch black is much more uptempo at times, but amazing unique dub-unfluenced music too talisman compilation from interchill is the fucking ultimate dub compilation with an ott song on it actually Shakatura sometimes puts out dubby songs, but rarely now for really good psy-dub that i find nothing like ott: gaudi neil sparkes waterjuice oliver jones at times (out with an album on iboga soon) kick bong red seal bill laswell obviously, although not all of his stuff has something to do with dub there is also this dude by the name of marley something or other you might check out Quote
Frontier Psychiatrist Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 kukan-dub-lagan (no need for a discussion on the merits of his music here, ok pavel?) 353427[/snapback] Quote
slyman604 Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 also dont forget the all time masterpiece http://www.psynews.org/reviews/ajourney.htm Quote
Guest Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Thanks for the tips again mates. I just found a great album I have to recommend to you: Hoopy Frood - Psychonaut. Awesome album that mixes a lot of different music styles (Only thing I can complain on is that it might be too much vocals in some tracks) , first track 'Sequence' is the bomb! Quote
Basilisk Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 I would have also said ANDROCELL... highly underrated dubby ambient album imho. Quote
