I'm a huge fan of Dub but I don't know or have anywhere near enough as I want.
 
Got and heard tons of Big Youth, U-Roy, Scientist, Mad Professor. Need your help to find more.
 
(and remember this is not a thread about your common or garden reggae. I'm only interested in Dub. So if it doesn't have:
 
     vomit-inducing monster bass
     bizarre random/spacey electronic beeps
     violent abuse of echo chambers
     an apartment shaking rhythm
     disorientating phasing/panning
     speaker-to-speaker bass with a total disregard for Dolby
     and no idea of the concept of 'production values'
 
then I probably won't be interested)
 
Recommendations please!

Just did a wiki for Yabby You and given how many releases he has and has worked with Lee 'Scratch' Perry and King Tubby et al I can't believe I have never heard of him. Cheers for that! I'll investigate

There is always lovely albums produced by Sly and Robbie like Black Uhuru's "Dub" or even the mega-awesome

Sly and Robbie Meet Mad Professor.

Also the classics:

Lee "Scratch" Perry
