Release note
Beats & Pieces is happy to bring you a new album from Tor.ma in Dub, the dub project of Mexican producer and musician Rafael Hernandez. After a successful debut in Iono Music and a number of singles and compilation releases, Tor.ma in Dub brings forth his most mature and complete musical output to date in Jump High (From the Roots to the Stars). Rafael's diverse musical tastes both as a producer and as a music enthusiast manifest themselves here. The album combines elements of different styles of Dub with Breaks and electronic beats, and the outcome is very groovy and smooth and serves perfectly both as a great soundtrack to dive into and nod your head dreamily to, and as moving dancefloor material.
Track list:
01. Prayer
02. Izel
03. Out of There
04. This Way (Live Edit)
05. Subconscious
06. Gaia
07. Times a Billion
08. Smile
09. Metamorph
10. Impulse
11. Dark Dub
12. Biocircuit
13. Raining Dub (Special Breaks Edit)

Nice.
So is it "from the Roots to the Sky" ?
or "From the Roots to the Stars" ?
I think it's the second one, no ?
at least that is what it says on the CD cover. |

Got it yesterday.
Nice vibes and all, but nothing really amazing or innovative here.
not the kind of albums I can really dive into, but it's a cute dubby chiller

tiread of the psydub thing you know, but there are few good trax here, mainly in the end 8,9, 11, 12 are very nice. the rest is decent psydub i guess if you're in for this thing. |

hello there! thanx a lot for your support and vibes!
this album is very emotional for me. yes indeed my idea was to the first tracks had more roots feeling, and the second part more electronic (from the roots to the stars  ) hope you have a good and happy time listening... i really recomend it under a palm tree 
peace and joy! |

STYLE
Downtempo psydub and dub-reggae infused electronica. Jump High sees Tor.ma in Dub delivering what the name suggests - an album steeped in dub and reggae sound imagery. The lumbering bass lines and off beat drum rhythms of the genre drive many of the tracks and there are abundant electric piano and organ stab chords, echoing effects and rootsy vocal snippets. By way of contrast psytrance elements are also widely employed; slick digital effects, liquid arpeggio forms and some rather spacey synthetics. The compositions are very rhythmically impelling and ideal for dance floor whilst the exploratory nature of the electronica holds the attention sufficiently to make Jump High rewarding as a headphones experience too.
MOOD
Jump High has an understated exuberance about it; bright sound palettes and warm melodies with a lazy dance beat keep the album on a high for the most part. As with much downbeat dub a dreamy hypnotic quality tends to well up and leave the listener nodding in pleasant reverie. The sharp abstract peripherals and imaginative surface detail along with the atmospheric intros and outros lend a trancy sci-fi aspect to the music in many places. This is most strongly developed in the penultimate Biocircuit where a more overt trance approach is brought to the fore.
ARTWORK
The promo copy I have features a leaping figure silhouetted against a deep red/black space-sky. The ground beneath has tropical palms rising from the grass and a dark pyramid off to one side. The gold and green of this earthy section completes the traditional colour scheme. On similar hues the rear panel shows a tracklist along with relevant credits and website information. A small circular insert shows what is presumably the artist's recording studio. Within the pyramid form is repeated, only here it dominates - its large dark mass radiating beams of light that catch a group of leaping figures. Here are thanks and some brief thoughts from Tor.ma in Dub.
OVERALL
Tor.ma in Dub is the current project of Mexican based Rafael Hernandez. Rafael is a musician/producer/DJ with an enthusiasm for most forms of electronic music: Psytrance, Goa, Progressive & Ethnic Trance, Dub, Ambient, Jazz and Reggae being cited among his interests. Many of these genres are employed to varying degrees in the Tor.ma in Dub sound where the emphasis is on the Dub-Reggae side of electronic dance music. Jump High follows the 2008 debut album Big Blue Story which was released via Iono Music. This time upcoming Beats & Pieces is the label of choice, Tor.ma in Dub joining an interesting roster of diverse acts there that hints at some further treats for the future.
WHO WILL LIKE THIS ALBUM
Jump High is an album for dub lovers that enjoy the chillout and psychedelic end of the genre. If you want something downbeat to dance to - this might well fit the bill. Why not visit the Beats & Pieces web site and have a listen - all the tracks from the album are available there for preview..
