FREEDOM CALLS: MED DRED’S CROSS CONTINENTAL DUB ALCHEMY
Cyprus heavyweight Med Dred drops his transcendent Dubophonic Records offering with Freedom, a potent riddim that bridges continents and consciousness. The track unites Russian vocalist Rastaveli MC and Cape Verdean-Norwegian roots artist Ras Nelson in a compelling three-part release: a radio edit, a live dub, and an extended cut.
Med Dred has carved his reputation as Cyprus’s premier reggae/dub architect. His productions marry vintage analogue techniques with contemporary digital craft. The European dub underground reveres his work. International reggae stations regularly spin his tracks.
THE RIDDIM HITS HARD, THE MESSAGE RESONATES DEEPER
Rastaveli MC brings focused lyrical weight to the session. His previous Dubophonic releases, Better Galaxy and Jah Plan, established his restless creative drive. He channels spiritual awareness through every verse.
Norway’s Ras Nelson debuts on Dubophonic to complete the trio. His live performances crackle with raw energy. Audiences respond to his passionate delivery and deep musical commitment.
Freedom showcases three distinct voices united by one powerful vision. Dred’s production provides the foundation, a deep-rooted sound that honours dub tradition while pushing forward. This cross-continental collaboration proves reggae’s borderless reach. The riddim hits hard. The message resonates deeper.
