Full Release Today: THE PROCESS 2024 Remaster

 

Full release today, March 9th: Bandcamp exclusive, The Process Weapons Of Mass Percussion 2024 Remaster. The digital release includes the nine original Gee Pierce/David Asher mixes, remastered by Christopher Lewis, in keeping with David Asher's original vision for the album.
"There is a heavy, heavy dubwise treatment throughout most of the session, with the best (and most disturbing) war on terror/911 soundbytes yet to be interwoven with music, and though the use of vocals is limited, where they do appear they range from the commanding (in the case of group leader David Asher), to the ethereal, to the shamanic. Middle Eastern percussions and chants. Robotic voices and electronic blips and bleeps. The repeated images of the Rasta soldier and the prophecy of Armageddon. In my mind the heavy, electronic dub (with an organic core) put together by Mr. Asher and The Process on "Weapons of Mass Percussion" sits quite nicely alongside the best, most mutant dub from studios/labels such as On-U Sound, Wordsound, and B.S.I Records. Great stuff.....pointing to a brave new world for The Process... and us all. " Dr. Strange Dub Echo Chamber KFAI-FM.

Review of "Jah Shield" in CULTCHA Clash Outer National

 
CULTCHA Clash Outer National Music Review:
DAB (David Asher Band) - Jah Shield
(2023 Bandcamp) by Selecta J-Cut


David Asher is an individual who puts his whole heart and soul into his music, and it shows. From his time fronting Detroit's premier reggae / rock band, The Process, to his more recent work with DAB, he's been putting out original music for over 30 years.

Listen to Jah Shield 

The first new single since 2021's self-titled DAB LP does not disappoint. From the start of the track one finds themselves immersed with infectious rhythms and positive vibrations.

David's vocal delivery is raw and soulful, lyrical content is righteous. According to Asher... "about the Creator's protection from jealous bad-minded people, vampires and back-biters." The instrumentation sounds fresh, reggae lovers will want to hear this.

Production is high quality, by Mr. Asher and Chris Lewis. the sound is full, rich and crystal clear. Played in a club, this one is sure to get some motion on the dance floor!  

Get the digital release, including instrumental version, from Bandcamp.
