With Dr. Strangedub
It's a Worldwide DUB Affair Baby!
Join Dr. StrangeDub and DJ Baby Swiss (aka Capt. 2much FreeTime) in the Echo Chamber your worldwide dub club. With the heaviest dubs, the most conscious roots, and the funkiest club beats, all chilled and mixed into a subsonic stew, the Echo Chamber is the hippest place to be every Wednesday morning from 2:00 to 6:00 a.m.
A typical show features a heavy dose of the latest roots & dub reggae and a potent shot of old school roots and dub. But dub just lays the foundation and holds the trip together: the DJ dub doctors cover the entire reggae rainbow, and they pull in the heaviest chilled beats from clubs around the world. For most shows, Dr. StrangeDub is at the controls for the first 2 hours, while DJ Baby Swiss "runs tings" in the second half of the show.
ECHO CHAMBER Crew:
- Dr. StrangeDub (Michael Rose) - DJ host for hours 1 and 2 and founder
- DJ Baby Swiss (Elmar Romain) - DJ host for hours 3 and 4.
- KaBangi PapaRasta (Bob Marley Jr.) - photography, videography, and media

How 'bout a 2-part Echo Chamber in the space of a single 4-hour show? Part 1 took us down to Brazil, where we found Samba, Bossa Nova, '80s-style Pop/Funk, and... Ska, Reggae and Dub! Speaking of which, the shorter Part 2 started out at 5:a.m. in Kingston circa 1962 because this week's EC aired on Jamaican Independence Eve, August 5th! The three Brazilian hours included spins of OBMJ, Bebel Gilberto, Grupo Batuque, CeU, Rita Lee and Os Mutantes (of whom Lee was a member 1966-1972). Part 2, the Jamaican Independence hour, kicked off with Derrick Morgan's independence classic Forward March, and spun Lord Creator, an Unknown Artist (we really should find more of those), Jimmy Cliff, The Folkes Bros. & Count Ossie, and Victor Wong with the Mighty Vikings before winding up with The Bubbles. Then we kept it strictly Yard all the way to 6:a.m. with Delroy Wilson, Tommy McCook, Willie Williams (followed up by Millie Small singing "Poor Little Willie!") and The Upsetters at King Tubby's.
