As a collector of spring tank hits before I knew what they were, off early soundclash cassette tapes, this collection is a must. I've put countless spring tank artifacts into my own releases over the years and can never have enough of them on hand. This pack ranges from subtle to thunderous with this beloved niche sound while remaining inherently in character and endlessly versatile. So much variety of tone and timbre.. crucial!

The Legacy of King Tubby & the Dub Revolution 🎛️

In the 1970s, King Tubby changed music forever. Starting as a radio repair technician, he built and modified sound systems that defined Jamaica’s dancehall scene. But his biggest impact came in the studio—where he transformed mixing into an art form, pioneering dub as a genre.

Tubby’s genius lay in remixing existing tracks, stripping them down, and adding deep echoes, reverb slams, and thunderous bass to create new, immersive soundscapes. His work influenced Lee "Scratch" Perry, Scientist, Mad Professor, and generations of producers worldwide.

One of the most iconic dub effects—the spring reverb tank slam—was a signature of Tubby’s mixes. By physically hitting, shaking, or plucking the springs inside a King Tubby-modified spring reverb, engineers could create a metallic, explosive thunder sound that became a dub essential.
