Out Here On The Perimeter 1989-1996 [CD]

Follow-up to the Ambience In Dub set that anthologised the early Dub Syndicate albums, Out Here On The Perimeter 1989-1996 picks up the story in the late 1980s with Style Scott coming more to the forefront of the project as bandleader and co-producer, and the group emerging as a live entity, mirroring the trajectory of Bonjo Iyabinghi Noah of labelmates African Head Charge.

This was also the period of their greatest popularity, with a classic series of albums that combined the best of Jamaican musicianship and the wild studio experimentation of UK production maverick Adrian Sherwood, resulting in music that appealed to ravers and dreads alike. Sherwood has also concocted a special bonus album of brand new version excursions on rhythms from the period.

This box set includes four albums from that period, plus Obscured By Version an album of new productions based on classic Dub Syndicate Rhythms. Strike The Balance (1989), Stoned Immaculate (1991), Echomania (1993), Ital Breakfast (1996), Obscured By Version (2025).
