Heaps Dub by Root 70 plays the music of Burnt Friedman, Flanger, The Nu Dub Players
“The ten tracks assembled on HEAPS DUB all come from the diverse albums Friedman has released with the projects Flanger – together with Atom™ – The Nu Dub Players and also solo on Nonplace from 2000-2004. This selection was chosen by Hayden Chisholm. HEAPS DUB presents the reconstruction of the reconstruction: Friedman in his original programmed work has always tried to come as close as it gets to the authenticity of natural instruments and the spirit of a band playing – to question the very principle of “natural”. ROOT 70 on this album have “re-naturalized” the programmed works of Friedman – not necessarily to question the very principle of “programmed”, but to show that these works are true songs in their own right, as well as musical favourites, no matter what the overall circumstances might be.” (Daniel Giebel)
