FAYA DUB (France)

ROOTS OF DUB FUNK 5 - Track 14 - "TCHINIB' IN DUB"

The creation of Faya Dub in September 1998 was the result of a meeting between Reggae and Jazz musicians in the month of May of that same year.
It all started with a first meeting that fused with positive energy and great sounds flying out of our instruments. The fusion of all this great vibes was, in no doubt for us, a beginning of something great : "Developing a universal side of the "black roots music" through Reggae Dub and Jazz. A year later, the fruit of all our jammin' gave birth to a double album called "Irie Feeling".

Faya dub's reggae reaches the five continents.

The spirit and universal way of going of Faya Dub's music has brought the band to perform live in the refugees' camp of Doboj istock and at the Tuzla Wave Festival, Bosnia or in the ghettos of Cayenne, Gayana.
"Our journeys and concerts in different places of the planet are often enriched by the diverse encounters we make with international musicians coming from India, Africa, Eastern Europe, Brazil, Caribbean, Western Europe or U.S.A.
The second album "Sings and Plays" is a perfect example of a harmonious fusion of great vibes between artists sharing the same passion in music and art."
The grandfather, Jalal M. Nuriddin, from the legendary and revolutionary band "The Last poets" contributed vocally and shared his powerful poetry with Faya Dub, and thus, bringing another edge to our sound.
Jamaican singer and toaster, Stix Dan, is also another master vocal contributor and writer to the musical wealth of the band. His jam with spiritual words of wisdom is a message that can only come from the heart and soul of a wise Rastafari.
