Principal is the new solo project by producer and musician Rasmus Allin, who's first album Treacherous Dub will be released on the Copenhagen-based label StereoRoyal. Best described as an homage to old-school Jamaican dub, Principal's music features live recorded drums and other instruments. Fused with electronic elements, it celebrates the sound of the original dub pioneers. Born in 1970, Rasmus Allin has been working as a producer, musician, and songwriter since the mid-nineties, primarily within the realm of electronic music. Inspired by the British trip hop and drum n' bass scene, he soon gravitated towards Jamaican dub, rocksteady, and reggae. "I found my inspiration in the old Jamaican dub masters like Lee Scratch Perry, King Tubby, Augustus Pablo, and Scientist. I've spent endless hours in the studio trying to replicate their sound, using old tape delays, filter boxes, and modulation effects," he says. In 2002, Allin formed the band Junkyard Productions, playing major venues and festivals. Alongside this, he continued to hone his skills in producing, co-writing, and remixing music, working with top Danish pop and reggae acts the likes of Natasja, Pharfar, Wafande, Shaka Loveless, and the British girl band All Saints. English bands and producers like Dub Pistols, Gorillaz, and Roots Manuva are further influences channeled into his forthcoming release, which he references for their very personal and modern sound. With most of the album built on drum tracks recorded over ten years ago by the drummer Christian Skjødt, the album finds its strength in interlocking rhythmic patterns of baselines, chord stabs, and melodies. Treacherous Dub will be Allin's first album of pure instrumental dub tracks -- an ambition he's been wanting to fulfil for years. Marking his debut as a solo artist, the album also marks his premiere as a visual artist, with the album cover lithograph made by Allin himself. For Rasmus Allin, the collaboration with StereoRoyal offered "the perfect opportunity to give the tracks the finishing touches." StereoRoyal is a Danish library music label founded in 2010 by and specializes in off-kilter music for film and TV.
