Now
16 years strong, DUB MISSION is
one of the best longest running dub and reggae parties in the world.
A weekly Sunday night party at Elbo Room, Dub MIssion was started as
an alternative to the typical reggae night. The idea was to present
the more cutting-edge side of the music (i.e. all forms of dub and progressive
roots) that had not been heard much in Bay Area clubs until then. Luckily
this period of time has also coincided with a great resurgence of interest
in dub through onstage performances and re-issues. Since 1996 we have
presented special nights on various reggae greats including Bob Marley,
Lee Perry, King Tubby, and Prince Far I, to name a few. Artists and
DJs from all over the world and the U.S. have also performed at DUB
MISSION. A partial list includes Adrian Sherwood & the ON-U Sound
System, Mad Professor & the Ariwa Sound System, the Scientist, Zion
Train, Twilight Circus Dub Sound System, Groove Corporation aka Overproof
Sound System,Florian Seyberth of Boozoo Bajou, Nickodemus of Turntables
on the Hudson, Tino Corp feat. Jack Dangers &, Ben Stokes, Dr. Israel
& Dreadtone International, Dubblestandart, Pitch Black, Organic
Grooves, Yossi Fine of Ex-Centric Sound System, Heavyweight Dub Champion,
Bigga Bush, Dub Gabriel, Third Eye Tribe, International Observer and
many many others. In January of 1999, DUB MISSION produced legendary
dubmaster The Scientist along with the all-star Devil Dub
Band (Buckethead, Brain, DJ Disk) at the Justice League. In April
of the same year, we co-presented the first Bay Area appearance by the
Blood & Fire Sound System featuring Trinity, Dillinger, Ranking Joe
and selector Steve Barrow also at the Justice League . In September
of 1999, DUB MISSION celebrated its third anniversary with a special
dub set by house specialists, Dubtribe Sound System. In 2001
DUB MISSION celebrated its fifth anniversary with producer/mixmaster
Adrian Sherwood's On-U Sound System featuring Ghetto Priest on
the mic. In 2002 DUB MISSION turned six with an unprecendeted sound
system, featuring The Scientist at the controls, Jah Yzer (Jah
Warrior Shelter) on the mic, and the DUB MISSION resident DJs behind
the turntables. In 2003 we celebrated our seventh with the first ever
U.S. appearance of Groove Corporation feat. Ras Tweed on
the mic. In 2004, we celebrated our eighth anniversary with the return
of Adrian Sherwood's ON-U Soundsystem and were nominated for "
Best Party" in that year's Club World Awards. In 2005, we hosted
an international dub summit with rare West Coast performances by Yossi
Fine of Ex-Centric Sound System, and Cosmic, Rocker &,
Zeb of Organic Grooves/The Spy from Cairo fame. In 2006, Dub
Mission turned 10 years old with a record-setting event featuring all
the resident DJs. The following year, we celebrated our 11th anniversary
with the debut of NY's Subatomic Sound System feat. MCs Jahdan
Blakkamoore and Treasure Don, and in 2008, we passed the
12 year mark with Canada's Third Eye Tribe Sound System and Seattle's,
DJ Collage aka Chatman who performed together for the first time
anywhere on the DUB MISSION stage. On September 6, 2009, DUB MISSION
celebrated its 13th anniversary with the return of Twilight Circus
Dub Sound System and Yossi Fine of Ex-Centric Sound System and this
past year we celebrated our 14th anniversary with dr. ISRAEL (Method
of Defiance) and special guests. In 2011, we celebrated our 15th anniversary
with Adrian Sherwood's On-U Sound System featuring Brother Culture,
who performed together for the first time in the U.S. In 2012 we had
an DUB MISSION Sound System show with founder DJ SEP on the decks
and MC CHATMAN on the mic, alonside Dub Mission resident DJs
dropping riddims all night long. We look forward to another great year
of riddims & laughter.
