Captain Ganja & the Space Patrol: Tradition 12" (new)
Virtual Label GroupYears before Scientist and Jammy battled the space invaders,Traditiondreamt up a sci-fi jazz/dub odyssey in north London.Captain Ganja and the Space Patrolis one of the most singular dub albums that barely saw the light of day. A conscious effort to create a new breed of dub centered around the cosmic synths and keys ofPaul Thompson. Making use of an early Roland sampler,Traditionbroke away from the standard drum/bass workouts that ruled the day. With theCaptain, dub becomes an atmosphere, a feeling, not a formula - littered with baby's cries, tribal chants, radiophonic noodlings and library soundtracks for space-age bachelor pads.
Originally issued by Venture Records in 1980, this small run was easily lost beneath the weight of their huge vocal LPs for RCA and everlasting lovers-tinged tracks like "Movin On," "?Breezin" and "Summertime." The experimental strains in one of their early 45s led the BBC to approach them about contributing to theDr. Whosoundtrack, Captial Radio did likewise for theHulabalootheme. Neither saw fruition and this facet of the band's sound is easily forgotten by diehard fans.
Reissued in collaboration withTradition'sBass 1 imprint, Bokeh Versions is proud to breathe new life into a record that's so central to its ethos - charting the outer regions of dub music. Restored by Lewis at Stardelta Mastering.
