View Full Version : Asian Dub Foundation
Gold. 11-04-2006, 07:24 AM Has anyone heard of this band? I have their first three albums, and I have to say they are absolutly amazing. Their style can't be compared with anything else, it combines ragga, dub, traditional asian music, hip hop & rap, breakbeat, punk, metal, reggae, jungle, dance and Bhangra and the result is amazing. As you can tell they are asian, from england though, they are an amazing band and if you haven't heard them you are missing out, I reccomend you buy Rafi's Revenge, its their best album.
Tw!stEd 11-04-2006, 10:07 AM I liked Fortress Europe....
Listen to Skindred if you like a mix between metal and reggae
Kronologik 11-04-2006, 10:44 AM Fortress Europe is the only track I've heard really, but it wasn't bad. Might be worth checkin them out further
Gold. 11-04-2006, 12:08 PM Fortress Europe is sick but it can't compare with most of the tracks on Rafi's Revenge, most notably Naxalite and Buzzin', they my fave tracks by them
YeshuaBenJoseph 11-05-2006, 10:07 PM rafis revenge is fucking sick, cos it has that raw edge, while the later ones are a bit over produced. i've seen em live a few times and they are dope on stage

Its way more than that, its Dub, rap, jungle, Bhangra, dance, ragga, punk, breakbeat... its basicly everything

Gold. 11-14-2006, 05:10 PM ^ they recently did the soundtrack to a dramatised version of the Bradford Riots
Eleven 24 11-14-2006, 05:28 PM downloaded rafis revenge... its ok i suppose..not really my thing..the guys voice annoys me the beats are decent i suppose
Gold. 11-15-2006, 01:40 PM ^ they're not beats, cos they are a band
BoneStarr 11-15-2006, 02:24 PM I first heard about them from, Need for Speed underground, I think The song was called Fortress Europe, it was pretty decent...
Haven't heard anything else from them.
Gold. 11-15-2006, 02:30 PM ^ yea fortress Europe is a famous one but if you want a really good track try:
Naxalite (http://www.zshare.net/download/01-naxalite-m4a.html)
Eleven 24 11-15-2006, 03:18 PM ^ they're not beats, cos they are a band
there beats to me..its not rock or classical so its beats..lol..
Gold. 11-15-2006, 05:11 PM ^ yeah but... they play real instruments, real drums, just cos they not in a typical rock style they are still "songs" rather than beats
Eleven 24 11-16-2006, 01:55 PM ^ yeah but... they play real instruments, real drums, just cos they not in a typical rock style they are still "songs" rather than beats
some producers use real pianos and drums and guitars and shit for their rap beats (M.shinoda to name one)
..but i can see what you mean..still i.m.o its beats...
and its definitley not "song" a song is the finished product.,.with the lyrics etc...
Gold. 11-16-2006, 04:05 PM ^ yea I know i just didn't really know what else to describe it as, and also another reason they're not really beats is cos they don't have a producer that makes them i.e. they write the songs together as a band
Eleven 24 11-16-2006, 06:04 PM fair point^^
