The other formative sound of my childhood, which unexpectedly found its way into my family in the early 80s thanks to a compilation cassette that my parents bought at a motorway gas station. Unbelievably, this compilation – entitled »Kings of Reggae« – featured some of the most far out Lee Perry productions from the 3 albums »Super Ape«, »Roast Fish Collie Weed And Corn Bread« und »Return of the Super Ape«. I am now completely sure that this must have instilled in me an early sense of the power of production techniques, even at a subconscious level, and it probably explains my love of delay, the production tool I couldn’t live without.
