Description of Ambient Dub

 
The resonant sounds of ambient dub merge electronic psychedelia with dub reggae elements and ideals. Artists like Higher Intelligence Agency, Woob and Original Rockers create a tranquil sense of timelessness through the use of low frequency echo and reverb, radiant synth pulses and earthy rhythms. A feminine-identified form, ambient dub attempts to carve out an aural womb for the headphone listener.
