Product Description
Introducing DubXanne: a group of Hamburg-based musicians devoted to bringing out the original dub roots from the biggest band in '70s-'80s Britain, The Police. At the apex of their career, The Police were a massive, bleached-blond juggernaut, surfing a new wave sound which valued intellectual cool and lightly sprinkled ethnic influences over the discredited rock 'n' roll bluster of old. The first post-punk supergroup. At the end of 1977, over the Christmas period, Stewart Copeland played Sting some of his reggae records. When Summers returned to Britain from his vacation in the United States, he found his bandmates newly inspired by Jamaican sounds. Reggae rhythms finally shook The Police free from post-punk rock convention and the rest has become history -- to date, 40 million people all over the world have bought a Police record! The first recordings for Police In Dub sessions by DubXanne started in September 2006. After exhaustive scrutiny of the Police back catalog at EMI Music Publishing (which controls and manages the rights for Sting's songs) and lengthy negotiations with Sting's management team, final consent for the project was granted in March 2008. Now the world can sit back and look forward to dub versions of the biggest tunes by The Police. The musicians behind DubXanne are members of the group Okada (backing band for Zoe, Maxim, Don Abi to name a few): Mykal (drums), Marcus (bass), Manougazou (guitar) and Guido Craveiro (guitar/keyboards; produced Moloko, Zoe and Bootsy Collins). Also featuring well-known vocalists such as: Big Youth, Ranking Roger from The Beat (who recently shared the stage with The Police in Manchester), Earl 16, Benjamin Zephaniah, Seeed and Jazz'min. DubXanne's album is a unique masterpiece, paying respect to an influential super-group. This is massive roots reggae.

REGGATTA MONDATTA is a tribute album to The Police as done by reggae artists.


Reggatta Mondatta attempts to reinforce the Police's reggae roots by offering a selection of Police favorites as performed by contemporary reggae artists. Instead, it reveals that many modern-day reggae acts are as influenced by pop-reggae like the Police as they are by genuine reggae artists. Apart from a few dub and heavy dancehall tracks, much of this sounds similar to the original versions. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but on the whole, Regatta Mondatta simply doesn't provide the revelations that it should have. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
