The album The Sacred Art Of Dub is a unique project, for it brings together two of UK's leading dubbands -Alpha & Omega and The Disciples- remixing each other's classic tunes to produce fourteen mesmerising takes on heavyweight dub. Both bands are famous for their spiritually charged roots reggae and have released some breathtaking dub-anthems in the last 10 years.

Alpha & Omega are Christine Woodbridge and John Sprosen. In the mid 80s they started their career foundin the Roaring Lion studio - named after the South West's leading reggae sound sytem. Up till now they have released an impressive 13 albums, thus creating a loyal following spanning the reggae, college and trip-hop community.

The Disciples, along with their Boomshackalacka soundsystem have had a major influence on UK roots music in the last ten years. Next to their constant presence on the soundsystem scene they also ran a succesful reggae magazine.

The fourteen remixes of each other's tracks include The Disciples remix of Alpha & Omega's classic cut 'Rastafari' -here entitled Elixir- and Alpha & Omega's remix of Prowling Lion and Poor Man's Prayer. The result of their collaboration is an outstanding and woofer-testing set, showcasing the highlights of both bands.
