Pick a Dub
by Keith Hudson
The 1301st greatest album of all time
Pick a Dub (1974) is an early dub album by producer Keith Hudson that foregrounds bass, rhythm, and studio effects to create sparse, atmospheric reinterpretations of reggae material. Hudson's mixes emphasize echo, reverb, and space, producing a darker, more introspective mood than many contemporaneous records. The album is often cited as a landmark in dub for its minimalist approach and its influence on later producers working in reggae and experimental bass music.
