Riddim and Stems

by Omar

Dub music is far more than a genre. Production techniques pioneered by the likes of King Tubby, Lee Scratch Perry, and ET laid the foundation for remixing, sound effects like echo and reverb, and using studio mixing and engineering as an instrument.


About Tracklib’s dub stems collection & multi track stems

All audio tracks in this collection come with exclusive multitracks aka stems. This way, you can get as creative as you want. Think of jungle lead vocals or the bass from A-Class Crew's "Dub School Dubwise." Even guitars, organs, synth chords, and mix strings are available to sample. Each stem download includes a variety of multitracks, or in other words: separate stems.


Our favorite examples of music productions that use dub stems

Get inspired by the greats: "Wolves" by Kanye West samples Sugar Minott's "Walking Dub." Or think of the dub-influenced dance/post-punk anthem "Cavern" by Liquid Liquid, sampled for hip-hop classic “White Lines (Don’t Do It)” by Grandmaster Melle Mel. Or hear how Metro Boomin sampled the dubby trip-hop classic "One Love" by Massive Attack for "6 Love" featuring Joey O'Keefe.
