Dub is a form of
Jamaican music, which evolved out of
Reggae in
1960's Jamaica. The dub sound consists predominantly of instrumental re-mixes of existing recordings and is achieved by significantly manipulating and reshaping the recordings, usually by removing the vocals from an existing music piece, emphasizing the
drum and
bass frequencies or '
Riddim', adding extensive
echo and
reverb effects, and re-incorporating occasional snippets of lyrics from the original version.
