- Scientist burst onto the reggae scene in the early 80s with a reckless mixing style that seemed to outdo even King Tubby’s wildest extravaganzas. He began his career as an engineer at King Tubby’s Studio. Shortly afterwards he became a protégé of King Tubby, and swiftly gained a reputation with his fresh mixing style. In 1980 the UK-based record company Greensleeves began to release the productions of top Jamaican producer Henry ‘Junjo’ Lawes. Lawes, finding success with new singing sensation Barrington Levy, used Tubby’s studio for his voicing and final mix-downs and offered Greensleeves a couple of dub albums mixed by Tubby’s sensational young engineer. Scientist v Prince Jammy (1980), mostly consisting of dub mixes of Barrington Levy tracks, was presented as a ‘Big Showdown’ between the two dub-masters. The combination of heavyweight Roots Radics rhythms pitted against one another. Greensleeves followed this with an album proclaiming Scientist to be the Heavyweight Dub Champion, a similar brew of Roots Radics/Barrington Levy rhythms Dub albums mixed by The Scientist soon began to appear with bewildering regularity from various sources. Greensleeves, in particular, continued to issue album after album. From the introduction to an interview with Hopeton Brown (Scientist) which can be found here.
