After more than 12 years of existence, once again, Brain Damage enters into a complete overhaul, ready to rethink everything and to rise where we do not expect.
After Raphaël Talis, the bassist, left, Martin Nathan goes on solo – but still with the same technician crew – and prompts the project into new directions. Even if Brain Damage’s sound always had its personal and identifiable signature, it becomes here definitely more tinged with « roots ».
Brain Damage Dub Sessions live sets are radically Sound-system orientated, and aren’t played on stage, but straight ahead of the front desk, on the floor of the different venues. To build this new set, many artists have been invited: Sir Jean, Brother Culture, Madu Messenger, M. Parvez, Tena Stelin, Learoy Green, as well as ArtDeko brass section, for some powerful and fruitful studio sessions.
Then, as is proper, several releases will come out soon, in particular with the first appearance of the track “Royal salute” on the Jarring Effects’ JFX 100 sampler (Brain Damage Dub Sessions with Sir Jean), as well as a first vinyl EP always on Jarring Effects.

After straying away from the UK-Jamaican dub style, Brain Damage Dub Sessions offers actually its own version of it in 2011.

… In dub we trust … …no compromise, just dubwise … … Common mottos are legion …
