In 2012, Prince Fatty produced a signature dub reworking of tracks from
Hollie Cook's debut 2012 LP, plus a selection of other choice dub-infused
covers
Mr Bongo now presents a fresh repress on blue vinyl of this classic album.
In the tradition of vintage reggae albums, renowned producer Prince Fatty took to the
controls and dubbed out Hollie Cook's self-titled debut album from 2011. In trademark
dub fashion, Prince Fatty strips back Hollie's classic reggae and tropical pop
productions, adding in extra bass alongside delays, tape echoes, and reverbs to
Hollie's captivating vocals. The resulting versions give the songs space to breathe,
whilst adding in a weighty, heads-down element to the productions.
As Prince Fatty mentions, "The dub versions showcase real tape echoes, heavy spring
reverbs and alternate instrumental elements such as melodica, percussion or horns
that were hidden in the vocal versions. All the dubs are mixed live in my studio in the
same Rub a Dub style as was made famous in '70s Jamaica by King Tubby and
others, i.e, not with the use of computers for automation and endless digital nonsense
but with fingers, late night vibes and re-arranged with a razor blade!".
In addition to the tracks featured from the debut album, this dub release features
mixes of Hollie Cook and Prince Fatty's cover version of The Whispers' disco classic
'And The Beat Goes On' and 'For Me You Are Dub', a ska cover of an old Andrews
Sisters' classic. Alongside that, there's a delicious adaptation of the Shangri- Las'
legendary record 'Walking in the Sand', and 'Baby', a revamp of the heavily requested
anthem, in collaboration with French synth-pop outfit, The Shoes.
Thirteen years on, this superb dub album sounds as quintessential and authentic as
ever.
