DS vs Sly+Robbie: Heavy Heavy Monster Dub.mp3
Dub Is The Roots (Mad Professor Rmx).mp3
Evil Empire.mp3

Well, it took us some time to work on all the beautiful material we’ve been recording since we released Streets Of Dub back in 2002, but i believe, it was worth the wait:
We've been in the studio together with Mikey Dread, Sly & Robbie, Dillinger a. o. to work on tracks that should redefine the meaning of dub. Listen to hybrid dub versions with musicians from the international dub community, showing the dub planet is a growing culture.

Dub music today appears to be attractive to the alternative-minded, to people continually curious about the other side of the story, the side that isn’t told by world leaders, omnipresent and terrorizing news media and big industry.

Tracks like Terrorists & Inhalers (feat. Keith Le Blanc), Evil Empire or Watch The Future (feat. Camel) have been inspired by a critical mind. We don’t consider our music being just easy listening stuff, more than that our sound shall give an impression about the real power of dub, healing the western world mind fuck with music. Because this is our job and dub reggae music is our roots. (listen to Mikey Dreads / Mad Professors version of Dub Is The Roots !)

Rhythm tracks for Heavy Heavy Monster Dub and Preemptive Dub were laid down by Sly & Robbie. Our partner Devon D supervised the Jamaican part of the production. When the tapes were returned to Vienna, we finished the songs at Go!East Studio, providing the original Dubblestandart sound, inspired by Europe's melting vibes. By then Dreadzone and Manasseh remixed these tracks. Seven Dub from Paris also added a wonderful Preemptive Dub version.
Real urban dub has been contributed by Sounds From The Ground from London, who worked on Evil Empire and 10 Tons Of Dope. This is big city dub style, deeper than deep.

Long time was spent traveling and preparing this record. In New York, London and Kingston people were met, and we took in their feelings about life and love, their ways of looking at the changing music scene and last but not least their concern about the future of this planet. (Where will the so-called leaders lead us to?)

We now present you with the culmination of this journey: 15 smooth dub tracks, that shall make u feel good and positive about life. Love to u all.

King Size Dub Sampler Vol. 10

2004 . CD sampler . echo beach

The 2004 release of King Size Dub, volume 10, is the last one in the series - of how a musical style has progressed. Dub as a style with all its reference points between commerce and innovation. The subtitle "file under dancefloor" shows the way and the track listing fulfills all expectations. The variety of styles (reggae, soul, pop, dancehall, trip hop, dope beats) is the pivot for more "logical dubgression" with all the usual - and some very unusual - suspects of the remixer and artist set. CD for a very special low budget price and paginated and limited to 5555 copies.
Includes tracks from Small Axe, The Visualistics, Manasseh, Spectre, Tappa Zukie, Prince Alla, Rockers Vibration a.o.

Dubblestandart vs Sly & Robbie - Preemptive Dub: their co-operation with one of the best rhythm sections ever... deep... with really nice vocals on top.

Reggae Germany Downtown

2004 . CD sampler . echo beach

Just in time for its ten year anniversary festivities ECHO BEACH releases in early 2004 what will definitely come to be known as a milestone. "Yeah, right, another one of those reggae compilations" I hear the weary consumer sigh, but not so! You have indeed been waiting for this one, as it represents the finest in contemporary Germany reggae without forgetting for one moment its historic dimension. All the usual suspects set the yardstick and quite a few ambitious newcomers are happy to join the party. As a statistical aside: About five tracks (Jan Delay, Freundeskreis, Gentlemen, Fettes Brot, FK Allstars) from this release had made their way into the German Top 100 in their previous single incarnations and half of the artists on this compilation made it to the German Top 100 album charts!

Reggae Germany Downtown has been compiled primarily with the listener's enjoyment in mind - which is precisely what reggae is all about; however, we also wanted to draw attention to the political agenda that has been and still is an integral part of reggae music, a fact that these days is sometimes forgotten.

Reggae Germany definitely plays in the international league, with stars of worldwide acclaim such as Sly & Robbie, Sizzla, Junior Reid, Tanya Stephens and Dillinger all being featured on Reggae Germany Downtown. Befor we forget it, "downtown" is used as a metaphor for contemporary reggae, even though the dancehall aspect has clearly, and by the way quite deliberately, not been given much room here. Which is a bit to do with the political and sociocritical aspects of our compilation....

Dubblestandart vs. Sly & Robbie is featured with the track Heavy Heavy Monster Dub.

Mastercuds Chilled

The Night Garden

2003 . CD sampler . Dope Noir

17. Floater (Dubblestandart Mix)

2002 Vienna based Dub/Downtempo star Waldeck had put a spell on us with his bittersweet song filled album Night Garden. This brand new collection offers versions and reinterpretations of those already classic songs by renowned artists like Herbert, Kid Loco, Dubblestandart, Urbs, Mushroom Dive, Jung Collective, Mark and Supercheese. Those reworks turned the melancholic Night Garden into a relaxed garden party filled with cranky filter bass, fruity dope beats, caribbean reggae vibes, broadband red light district loops and comedy Acid House.

7. Dubblestandart feat. Dillinger - 10 Tons of Dope (Sounds From The Ground rmx) 7:14

The current release of King Size Dub, volume 9, is another impressive display of how a musical style has progressed. Dub as a style with all its reference points between commerce and innovation. The subtitle "file under dancefloor" shows the way and the track listing fulfills all expectations. The variety of styles is the pivot for more "logical dubgression" with all the usual - and some very unusual - suspects of the remixer and artist set.
"Vienna Dubble Standart gonna meet legend Dillinger ... remixed by the London's finest ambient worker ..."

Return From Planet Egalica (Superlistener Dub).mp3
Playerhater (Bun Dem Dub).mp3
Playerhater (DocMarshall Mix).mp3
Playerhater (Mad Professor Mix).mp3

The first album release on SELECT CUTS by Vienna based Dubblestandart!
Streets Of Dub shows not only, that Dub music is reflecting a higher need in the public for contemporary contra-commercial-spaced out-music with a roots touch, but also that Dub music might move from behind the mixing desk to the front of the stage, with powerful instrumentalism and the ability to reflect vibrations of a freaking planet ... So dub to be good... !!!

14 tracks, including remixes from Mad Professor, The Rootsman, Freedom Satellite, Sugar B, Waldeck, Mad Professor, Fat Squad Crew a.o..

9. Dubblestandart - Planet Egalica (Vienna Scientist rmx)

"The Vienna Connektion had already featured on King Size Dub Vol.7! However, still relatively unknown and active more on the live circuit than the DJ circuit are Dubble Standart around mastermind Paul Zasky. With projects centered around Dillinger and Mad Professor they have made quite a reputation for themselves and are now featured on KSD8 with one of their best upcoming tracks Planet Egalica. With some retouching done by Vienna Scientist!"

7. Dubblestandart - Dinkle Dub

"The Vienna Konnektion has been influential on this project as well. Dubblestandartís members around mastermind Paul Zasky are still relatively unknown, and they are more active as a live band than on the dj-circuit. They donít have an album released as of yet, but have worked on projects with Dillinger and Mad Professor. Here they present a dry 'freak out dub' - note the fine guitar line - that is tailor-made for King Size Dub Vol.7 with its dubgression par excellence."

Out of the heart of Europe Dubblestandart invites you to a journey through reggae and dub with a cosmic flavour: modern roots music, from innovative reggae to dub and pop. The songs feel like a story of sound, showing a world living on the edge.

Their 1990 release Front Of Enemies contained dub, electronic music and roots rhythms, long befor dub become a trendy tool on the scene. This new compilation closes the last decade of their works with an expressive selection, sounding very different.

5 Minuten vor 12.mp3

A statement against superficiality, the power of money and racism.
Coming from the heart of Europe, this album represents a manifestation of our disapproval of the industrialized way of life.

Sundance

1993 . audio-tape

Stupefied Eremit

1988 . audio-tape

The first Dubblestandart recording ever released. Here, the original members of DS engage in their crazed interpretations of Dub, all of them around the age of 17 or 18, smoking dope and having fun.
