    Bass Culture Traduit de l’anglais par , e Bass Culture When reggae was king Photographie de couverture : King Tubby. Photographie de quatrième de couverture : Mikey Dread. © .. pour les illustrations. © Lloyd Bradley, . © Éditions Allia, Paris, , , pour la traduction française. Pour Diana, Georges et Elissa. “Les gens pour lesquels le reggae a été inventé ne l ’ont jamais décomposé en styles distincts. Non. C ’est une musique qui vient de l ’esclavage, en passant par le colo nialisme, donc c ’est bien plus qu ’un simple style. Venant par la route de la patate ou la route des bananes ou les flancs des collines, les gens chantent. Pour se débar - rasser de leurs frustrations et élever leur esprit, les gens chan tent. C’était aussi une forme de distraction pendant les week-ends, que ce soit à l ’église ou à une “neuf nuits ” , ou simplement devant . Une veillée caribéenne se pro longe ta maison, tu allais te mettre à chanter. Tu chantes en taillant ta traditionnellement pen dant neuf nuits. (Toutes les notes sont du traducteur.) haie, tu chantes en bêchant ton jardin. La musique est une vibra- tion. C ’est un mode de vie. Il faut bien comprendre que ce n ’est pas seulement cette musique que l ’on joue : c ’est un peuple … une culture … une attitude, un mode de vie qui émane d ’un peuple. ” Bass Culture : quand le reggae était roi a été une véritable aventure. Elle m’a emmené en Jamaïque, à New York, à Miami, dans certains quartiers de Londres dont j’avais oublié l’existence, et dans les recoins les plus profonds de ma collection de disques.

This is our 3rd anniversary issue, Natty Mark founding the magazine in June 2016, launching it at the 1st Mikey Dread Festival near Witney (an event that is also 3 years old this year). This summer sees a major upsurge in events involving members of The Dub family – Natty HiFi, Jah Lambs & Lions, Makepeace Promotions, Zion Roots, Swindon Dub Club, Field Frequency Sound System, High Grade and more – hence the launch of the new Dub Diary Newsletter at sessions.

Give thanks to the photographers who have allowed us to use their pictures of events this month. We welcome some new writers this month too – thanks you for stepping up Benjamin Ital and Eric Denham (whose West Indian Music Appreciation Society newsletter ran from 1966 to 1974 and then from 2014 onwards). Steve Mosco presents a major interview with U Brown from when they recorded an album together a few years ago. There is also an interview with Protoje, a conversation with Jah9 from April’s Reggae Innovations Conference, a feature on the Indigenous Resistance collective, and a feature on Augustus Pablo.

Werden-Greenfield All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT Since the early 1970’s, Rastafari has enjoyed public notoriety disproportionate to the movement’s size and humble origins in the slums of Kingston, Jamaica roughly forty years earlier. Yet, though numerous academics study Rastafari, a certain lacuna exists in contemporary scholarship in regards to the movement’s scriptural basis. By interrogating Rastafari’s recovery of the Hebrew Bible from colonial powers and Rastas’ adoption of an Israelite identity, this dissertation illuminates the biblical foundation of Rastafari ethics and symbolic registry. An analysis of the body of scholarship on Rastafari, as well as of the reggae canon, reveals
