Liquid Sound Design proudly presents Dub Trees - ‘Nature never did betray the heart that loved her’, the first new material from seminal producer and musician Youth who has garnered a reputation as one of the most eclectic diverse and brilliant producers to emerge in recent years.

Youth has always been a true innovator, who else could claim to have founded the seminal band Killing Joke at the age of 18, pre-empt the whole early eighties pop phenomena with Jimmy Cauty in Brilliant, discover the genre defining eccentricities of The Orb, be nominated for a Brit Award four times and win in 1998, run one of the world’s most
respected trance labels - Dragonfly Records and still have time produce The Verve’s triumphant seven million selling ‘Urban Hymns’.

In between his myriad schedule Youth has spent the last year carefully crafting this deeply personal album of exquisite dub laden grooves and cites it as “some of my best work to date”. Youth has always gained huge inspiration from the dub sounds of King Tubby, Augustus Pablo, Lee Perry and Bunny Lee and this album is his personal homage, eleven
superbly produced tracks that will undoubtedly become a classic in its genre.

‘Buffalo’ and ‘Return of the Native’ will be remixed and released as a 12” early next year.
