'Fatta' Mixing 'This Land Is Not For Sale' by Indigenous Resistance/Asian Dub Foundation
This is a live dub mix done by Jamaican engineer Lynford 'Fatta' Marshall of the track 'This land Is Not For Sale' a collaboration between Asian Dub Foundation & Indigenous Resistance (www.dubreality.com) and the radical people of Atenco, Mexico. Fatta grew up watching King Tubby mix and has mixed Dennis Brown, Sizzla & Black Uhuru among others.
Indigenous Resistance!!!
The themes of IR18.3 are dub , the land is not for sale, the situation in Atenco, Mexico and a special collaboration with Asian Dub Foundation around that issue.
ATENCO is a classic indigenous land rights struggle: the Mexican government wants to build an airport and eject the people who live there, the people fight back and win. Although, the government tries again, this time with more soldiers and more brute force: killing, raping and imprisoning the “insurgents.” A 14 year old boy is shot and 12 people are imprisoned; some given extremely harsh prison sentences of 100 years.
The media coverage out of Mexico regarding it is massively biased, siding with the governments’ view. You can watch an excellent documentary on Atenco “Breaking the Siege” on YouTube
In Mexico there is a very powerful and inspiring grass roots campaign against these injustices, the main organisations are Libertad Y Justica para Atenco and the People’s Front for the Defense of the Land (FPDT). Both are affiliated to the EZLN’s “Other Campaign” which aims to unite all autonomous resistance in the country
Asian Dub Foundation played some concerts in Mexico last year. To the press and from the stage, ADF spoke out about Atenco. After one of their shows they were honored to find a delegation from the people's front for the defense of the land waiting for them, including a woman whose husband was one of the 12 political prisoners. The delegation thanked ADF for being outspoken about their plight and made a special presentation to them of their neckscarves. The scarves had a picture of Zapata and emblazoned with their slogan saying their land is not for sale. They also gave ADF with an audio recording of a very powerful speech about Atenco. This speech became the catalyst and backbone of the track “This Land Is Not For Sale”.
For some time, IR had been aware of the siege of Atenco and had been following the news through its direct and underground channels. When Asian Dub Foundation contacted us about working on a collaboration around this issue, it made perfect sense to us. Land rights are the center of many indigenous struggles and IR has done tracks & grafitti projects related to this matter. With tracks on recent IR releases, we have hoped to illuminate the independence movement in West Papua, the The Free West Papua Movement (OPM), the struglge of the Krikati people of Brasil, and the Minga Indigenia of Colombia. This new collaboration was created through the internet with musical mixes, speech fragments, and ideas flying back and forward in the digital domain. IR’s network of dubversive members working in shadows across the Americas from Peru to Colombia,Êmade their contributions by editing, transcribing, translating and recordings. These were relayed via the net to ADF in the UK. Special shoutouts to alexadub, dubitista,manueladub, the ghost ,sistah dub, gabriella dub, and dubdem from the (IR) crew and chandrasonic, sun j, bobby dubman from (ADF) All this work culminated with the track being mixed in Jamaica by IR and engineer Lynford “Fatta” Marshall. “Fatta” grew up watching and learning from King Tubby, which you can can hear in his glorious mix magic to the dub. Fatta, himself, has mixed everyone from Sizzla, Dennis Brown and Black Uhuru to Luciano, Beres Hammond and Marcia Griffiths,.you can watch him in action on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMiUMQsSQ1s
on this dubcast you can hear the tracks created and learn more about Atenco and at the same time savour some serious dubwise and dubversive music.

Atenco: Breaking the Siege / Romper el cerco
This video analyzes the events in San Salvador Atenco during the first days of May, 2006 and denounces the violation of the civilian population's human rights by state and federal police forces. The documentary deconstructs the mass media's operating methods, which were responsible for creating a climate of fear and an information blockade on the events in San Salvador Atenco, in the midst of an especially delicate situation: the 2006 process of presidential succession in Mexico.

What the hell is up with that outfit?
She looks like she's about to whip the crap out of somebody.
Based on McCain's smile, I think she already did.
She is one of the most frightful individuals to come along in a good while.
Her and Glenn Beck.
May they go rot together in their hate and lies.
Can somebody explain to me whey they are still in the spotlight?
Oh, it's the sexy outfit you say?
What about Beck?
He's a really ugly person - hateful, deceitful, manipulative...

PM Dawn - Fucked Music ( 2000 Unreleased)
...Speaking of fanatical behavior, I might be receiving some angry complaints and/or threats from P.M. Dawn enthusiasts because of this week’s featured bootleg, the eclectic hip-hop duo’s unreleased 2000 album “Fucked Music” (available through next Friday). There are only a limited number of copies in existence, and to the fans who have the actual CD I’d like to say, “Fantastic! You own a collector’s item.” But for casual fans who didn’t hear much about P.M. Dawn after 1998’s Dearest Christian, I’m So Very Sorry for Bringing You Here. Love, Dad, their follow-up album with the less church-friendly title may come as a complete surprise. At the risk of sounding blasphemous, if God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, can’t the chosen ones of the P.M. Dawn fan club give their less fortunate online brethren a gift as well?
Think of “Fucked Music” as P.M. Dawn’s attention-grabbing “mixtape,” only it arrived at the end of their string of studio albums rather than the beginning. The audio on the MP3s I was given isn’t perfect — there are digital pops and hiccups — and I accidentally deleted the final track, “Hope,” though it only amounts to a few seconds of silence, a riddle like the title track of Sly & the Family Stone’s “There’s a Riot Goin’ On.”
Is there really no hope of “Fucked Music” getting a proper release? There’s also the matter of “The Jim Sullivan Syndrome,” originally set for release in 2003. It was preceded in the fall of ‘02 by a single called “Amnesia,” one of the best soul songs I heard all decade — P.M. Dawn’s MC, Prince Be, is a good rapper, but he’s a great singer — but 2003 came and went without any new album in stores.
So, for anyone who’s been jonesing to hear new music from P.M. Dawn since the Clinton years but didn’t realize any existed, here’s your chance. I’ve also included “Amnesia” since it’s no longer available for purchase — and because a song this transporting deserves to be heard. But all of P.M. Dawn’s studio albums and their best-of compilation, as well as the self-released Greatest Hits Live, are available at iTunes, so please throw down some money there when you get a chance.
Prince Be could probably use the financial help: according to P.M. Dawn’s DJ, Doc G (he replaced DJ Minutemix in 2006), at pmdawnonline.com, Be had a stroke on July 4, 2008, and another one seven months later. He suffered his first stroke in 2005, and in 1992 he went into a coma for three days, after which he learned he was diabetic. Be is now on dialysis because of his 2008 stroke, and his right leg was amputated below the kneecap due to a gangrene infection that cropped up after his third stroke.
