Album Notes

For the last decade Rej Forte and his Jah Works label have been creating and spreading positive vibes from his production base in Barkshire, England.

A reggae dub innovator and producer/catalyst, Rej Forte produced Radical Dance Faction (RDF), the Rhythmites, and founded the High-Tech Roots Dynamics group, which went on to become The Revolutionary Dub Warriors (On-U Sound).

His production of "Universal Spirit Warrior" by The Dub Crusaders featured African chants, roaring lions, ghostly trains and swooping vampire bats -- one of the best of all new dub albums of the '90s.

"Ruff Cut" features unreleased and/or remixed masters from 1992-1996 - dub plate specials, 10 inch singles, unreleased tracks, versions, instrumentals, new riddims, alternative mixes - producing a really adventurous new alternative dub album.

A possible pick for the best dub album of 1996!

REVIEWS

Authentic dubplates, reminiscent of early Augustus Pablo works
author: Steve Steppa
As a fellow reggae musician, I & I must give the most respect to JAH WORKS for this release. Real instruments, authentic roots-dub sounds, excellent mix, and absolutely beautiful horn-section. Highly recommended for lovers of reggae before the digitalization trend. I'll be getting my copy very soon.
