Welcome to the peoples Dub college

We use the term college in reference to our state of edutainage and learning. Banana klan is a school of thought. 

I hate to shatter the mystery contained in the unspoken massages and the sublime, sub text of the audio extent and these scribbles parading as essays are but the sum of the celebration that we part take in most thankful to the Dub Pioneers too many to mention :

Lee Scratch Perry
King Tubby
Aswad
The Reggae Philharmonic Orchestra
Krs One
Saxson International
London Posse

Ragga hip hop, Uk Hip hip, Grime, Drum and bass, Jungle Techno, Broken Beat, UK Bashment
and or whatever the new phrase will be do little to describe the true essence of what has taken place in what kind only be considered stifling , morally challenged, economically stretched and spiritually depletive times. 

Short comings and great advances this post second war British born and or conditioned populus has consistantly thrown up some futuristic re invention of convention within the mechanism of non convention.
And so with much to augment in the philosopical property of art and creative political gestation's Banana klan the collective unite in attempt to reclaim the DIY grass root ethics  of an era most people are too busy to give a dam about.

Run the track, crack the joke but find time to recognise the serious missed opportunity at stake in times of mindless apathetic non communal society break down and all out modern day savagery.

Whatever you choose.. be it to vocalise to it, dance to it, construct it, trade in it.. the class has evolved. We are living testaments to the Dub wise resonance .....
