Marcus Gad, Zion I Kings - Dub of Serenity (2025) [Hi-Res]

The album "Dub of Serenity" is a full-length dub interpretation of the studio album Rhythm of Serenity by Marcus Gad. The musical reimagining is helmed by the renowned production trio Zion I Kings (Jah David, Moon Bain, and Tippy I), known for their mastery in crafting deep, analog roots sound.

In this release, the original compositions have undergone meticulous deconstruction: vocal parts recede into the background, giving way to accentuated basslines, rhythmic echoes, and spatial effects (reverb and delay). The record maintains the meditative and spiritual atmosphere of the original but shifts the focus to the vibration and instrumental components typical of sound system culture. The album concludes with a remix by Green Lion Crew, adding variety to the classic dub narrative.
