ADRIAN SHERWOOD TALKS ABOUT HIS PRODUCTION LEE SCRATCH PERRY’S LATEST ALBUM, THE SPIRIT OF RASTA CULTURE, HIS LATEST MUSICAL PLANS, FAVOURITE TRIPS AS WELL AS MUCH MORE
Adrian Sherwood is a famous producer and sound engineer from England, mainly known for his work in the field of dub music. His label, ON-U Sound Records, that is preparing for their 40 year anniversary next year, is really loved and respected by music lovers and record collectors all over the world and has been responsible for supporting dub and reggae music over the last few decades.
One of Adrian Sherwood’s highlights is his work with the godfather of reggae and dub, the legendary Jamaican artist, Lee Scratch Perry. But restricting himself to only some particular musical styles was always too narrow for such an open-minded person like Adrian and during his musical career he was also adding touches of his unique sound in studio productions and remixes for great bands from the electronic and industrial scene like Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails, Skinny Puppy and Ministry.
In his interview for All Andorra, Adrian talks about Lee Scratch Perry’s latest album, “Rainford” that he produced and will be released on his U-Sound Record Label at the end of the month, the spirit of Rasta culture, his favorite places, latest musical plans and his works with artists from other scenes.
Interview: Dmitry Tolkunov
Hi Adrian! Thank you for finding the time to talk with us. It would be great to know what you have been up to recently. Do you have any new releases or projects at the moment?
At the end of the month, a record that I made with Lee Scratch Perry is going to be released on my label U-Sound. I personally think that it is going to be the best record that Lee Scratch Perry will have made in the last 30 years. The album will be called “Rainford”. It will have great songs and it will be his most intimate and soulful work so far, in which he tells his life story. We already released an animated video for one of the songs from the album called “Rain” that was created by Lee’s friend, the artist Peter Harris.
