The Télérama Dub Festival is back for its ninth edition. The itinerary grows from year to year and no fewer than 12 cities will host the travelling festival for fifteen concerts. From Paris to Marseille, by way of Montpellier, Strasbourg and St-Etienne, it is a little tour of France of dub that sets off on 12 November.
This year, putting the programme together was no easy task for the organisers, faced with last-minute cancellations from Gotan Project and Ruts DC, replaced by Chinese Man and King Jammy. A blessing in disguise, then, since we will be able to (re)see the hyper-charged Marseille crew and the legend of the digital mixer playing his most famous tunes live.
Also on the bill: Dub Syndicate, the Anglo-Jamaican band born from the meeting of drummer Style Scott (Roots Radics) and producer Adrian Sherwood (On-U Sounds), High Damage (the meeting of High Tone and Brain Damage), Disrupt of Jahtari accompanied by Soom T, Prince Fatty who will come with his faithful deejay Horseman, OBF Sound System, Hammerbass meets Dub Action (for a tribute to the On-U Sound label, which celebrates its 30th anniversary), Molecule, Dub in V.O, Tom Fire, Jah Acid Dub,
Richard Dorfmeister feat. Ras T-Weed and many more…
For the first time this year, the Telerama Dub Festival will stage a meeting of dance and dub with the show Collusion, created by dancer and choreographer Sylvain Groud and set to music by Molecule.
