Tales is a really cool Finnish dub-roots reggae project by Kimmo Tyni and
friends. Kimmo also plays guitar and sings in Albino Rhino (a more heavy music
project!). Most of you probably don’t know it but I really love roots
reggae! Anyway, I quite this bands
Gravity Equals Love CD from 2013 on Ganja Tree Records. This is the 2nd 7” that is a Tree
of Dub production/mix collaboration. Serigne Touba starts things off and it is
a very vocal driven track (high falsetto voice at times) with a cool reggae
keyboards and delays and programmed drums. Great sound and vibe. Shaykh Ibra Fall Dub is the B-side and
features the melodica, reminds me of Augustus Pablo in some way. Cool stuff. It
would be better with real drums though. I think they only press like 150 of
these 7”s.. The first one was called Seeker.
Check out the preview video below for the A side track, Serigne Touba.
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
