The Dubroom reviews a lot of different material, from musical to educational to beneficial and more. We've got music, but also material for artists and producers as well as researchers of more conscious material. As always, when the Dubroom reviews something, this means that this website considers the material at least fair. So don't expect any negative reviews. When it's here, we recommend it. Period.

CARTER VAN PELT - 400 YEARS
DUBROOM WEBSITE REVIEW

WWW, February 2006 - There's an old track by the Wailers called "400 Years". There's also a magazine with the same name. Thusfar, only four issues have been released in print and it doesn't look like there's gonna be a fifth one soon either.

Is this a reason to feature a website that hasn't been updated in a very long time? No, of course not. We regret the fact that the 400 years of slavery continues until this day while there are only four issues of the magazine.

However, the quality of Carter Van Pelt's website is so high that it doesn't matter how the site isn't updated for a long time now. Every Reggae lover will spend hours and hours on the site still, because of the valueable contents. Carter Van Pelt has "simply" made a name for himself as many know him for his knowledgable questions and insightfull comments. So, the information that the website contains is truly priceless.

The four issues of 400 Years is not the only publication you can find on Carter Van Pelt's website. The website is literally filled with dozens of exclusive interviews, some of which are not even published elsewhere. And these are interviews with some of the biggest names in Reggae Music!

There's Sly Dunbar talking about Dancehall Music, for example. Or Mutabaruka speaking about live musicians and how it is hard to find space for a drum kit in a lot of Jamaican studio's. The story of Steel Pulse can be found there, and Carter Van Pelt even has the last or second-to-last interview with the Crown Prince Of Reggae, Dennis Brown!

Needless to say, that the real lover of Reggae Music will love to experience Carter Van Pelt's great site. This is the kind of website where reading the words will automatically bring the music in your ears even when it's not playing!

The Dubroom has reviewed the website but is not responsible for it's contents, nor does the Dubroom necessarily agree with the reviewed website or vice versa. The Dubroom also does not guarantee that the site is online. It was online at the moment this review was published (see date). Click on "TO SITE" to visit the reviewed website in a new window.
