Run Come Save Me was an accomplishment for Roots Manuva and now Rodney Smith has moved in the dub territory taking his work with him. Dub Come Save Me is a dub experience unlike others. Roots has taken some of his leftover tracks from the Run Come Save Me sessions as well as a few other rarities and has dubbed them up in such a way that they are closer to a reggae vibe then hip hop. Although all the tracks are dub inflected, they are very diverse too. Take “Revolution� for instance. The team of Chali 2na & Wayne Paul is amazing hooked into the backbeat of Dub. There is also a dub remix of Super Furry Animals’ “Dreamy Days� here as well that is completely unlike anything else on the album. So if you think that Rodney Smith was out of tricks, think again. This is a very inovative album that shows a whole other side of Roots Manuva.
