The second in our series of Foundation mixes takes the listener deep inside the mind of one of Jamaica's most legendary and imfamous producers, Lee "Scratch" Perry. From the early work Perry produced for Sir Coxsone Dodd in the late '60s during the heady and frantic days of Ska music, through to the squelching soundscapes and dark dub vibrations of the Roots era, Perry and his ever-changing band of Upsetters charted a new, strange course for Jamaican music. Partly down to the unique recording set-up at his Black Ark studio, and a selection of brilliant musicians (including luminaries such as The Barrett Brothers and Tommy McCook), the man known to his countrymen as The Mighty Upsetter trod new ground, influencing artists as diverse as The Clash, Paul McCartney and Bob Marley, but also modern producers and artists (The Bug, Digital Mystikz, Roots Manuva). With that in mind, we conclude our journey with two modern cuts from Mad Professor and Austrian dub/dubstep team, Dubblestandart
