Med sine umiskendelige dybe baslinjer og sit magiske greb om mixerpulten har den legendariske jamaicanske producer Scientist gennem årtier været med til at forme dubmusikken, som vi kender den i dag. Nu fejrer han 45-året for udgivelsen af sit hovedværk “Scientist Rids the World of the Evil Curse of the Vampires” (1981) og opfører albummet i sin fulde længde på ALICE til februar. Gå ikke glip af en historisk aften med en af dubmusikkens største pionerer og King Tubbys tidligere højre hånd, når han gæster vores koncertsal under Vinterjazz.

Efter billetterne blev revet væk til første koncert med Scientist, er vi glade for at kunne annoncere denne ekstrakoncert.

“The Scientist isn’t just mixing – he’s conducting a sonic symphony.” – Rolling Stone

Hopeton Brown – kendt verden over som The Scientist Dubmaster – hyldes som en af de mest innovative og indflydelsesrige pionerer inden for reggae og dub. Den jamaicanske producer begyndte sin karriere i slutningen af 1970’erne i Kingston, hvor han udviklede sine talenter i den legendariske King Tubbys ikoniske studie. Her tilførte han mixerkunsten en ny dimension ved at forvandle mixerpulten til et levende instrument, der kunne forme, omkomponere og gentænke selve lyden. Med sine umiskendelige dybe baslinjer, vidtstrakte ekkoer og hypnotiske rumklange har Scientist genfortolket dubmusikken og skabt en signaturlyd, som utallige producere siden har ladet sig inspirere af.

Hans banebrydende albums – “Scientist Wins the World Cup” (1982), “Heavyweight Dub Champion” (1980) og ikke mindst “Scientist Rids the World of the Evil Curse of the Vampires” (1981), som han spiller denne aften – står stadig som tidløse hovedværker inden for dubgenren. Scientist har samarbejdet med nogle af reggaens største ikoner, heriblandt Barrington Levy, Roots Radics, Johnny Osbourne og Augustus Pablo, samtidig med at han har inspireret nye generationer af musikere inden for reggae, hiphop og elektronisk musik. I 2010 kastede han sig endda over et remix af Lady Gagas “Telephone” med Beyoncé! Men denne aften vender Scientist tilbage til rødderne og fremfører sit klassiske horroralbum i sin fulde længde.

“The Scientist isn’t just mixing – he’s conducting a sonic symphony.” – Rolling Stone

Hopeton Brown – known worldwide as The Scientist Dubmaster – is celebrated as one of the most innovative and influential pioneers of reggae and dub. The Jamaican producer began his career in Kingston in the late 1970s, honing his skills at the legendary King Tubby’s iconic studio. There, he brought a new dimension to the art of mixing, transforming the mixing desk into a living instrument capable of shaping, recomposing and reimagining sound itself. With his unmistakable deep basslines, far-reaching echoes and hypnotic reverberations, Scientist redefined dub and created a signature sound that has inspired countless producers ever since.

His groundbreaking albums – “Scientist Wins the World Cup” (1982), “Heavyweight Dub Champion” (1980) and, above all, “Scientist Rids the World of the Evil Curse of the Vampires” (1981), which he will perform this evening – remain timeless masterpieces of the dub genre. Scientist has worked with some of reggae’s biggest icons, including Barrington Levy, Roots Radics, Johnny Osbourne and Augustus Pablo, while inspiring new generations of musicians across reggae, hip-hop and electronic music. In 2010, he even took on a remix of Lady Gaga and Beyoncé’s “Telephone”! But on this special night, Scientist returns to his roots, performing his classic horror-themed dub album in its entirety.
