"Dub 911" (2006 nature-sounds label) is Scientist's first studio album of all new material in 3 years with "The Defenders Of Freedom" band.

Consisting of legendary Jamaican musicians Soul Syndicate's Santa Davis,Fully Fullwood,Tony Chin,along with St.Thomas keyboardist Jawge Hughes,percussionist extraordinaire Steve Reed (The Rippingtons),Los Angeles guitarist Dale Hauskins and April Weller on vocals,with Hawaii's singer-artist Humble Soul;and horns from the Mongoose band.

Providing the riddims and a variety of "9/11" and "America's war on terrorism" references providing the song titles. The album opens with "The Anti-Christ", a nice dubbed up reworking of the Soul Vendors' Studio One classic "Swing Easy". The rest of this album brings the listener some entertaining, well dubbed tunes (some of them with vocal snippets of Humble Soul and April Weller here and there for good measure), which provide a glimpse of Scientist's effects-riddled style and mixing wizardry he's known and respected for.

Tuff tune "Babylon Burning",features guitarist Dale Hauskins doing a heavy lead rock guitar sound and solos.

Jamaica's Hopeton Brown, the mixing engineer who became known as Scientist, burst onto the reggae scene in the mid 70's with a reckless mixing style that seemed to outdo even legend King Tubby's wildest extravaganzas. He began his career as an engineer at King Tubby's Jamaican recording studio in 1978. Shortly afterwards he became a protege of King Tubby, and swiftly gained a reputation with his unique and innovative mixing style. Scientist soon became Jamaica's top recording engineer and worked with everyone imaginable, including Dennis Brown, Barrington Levy, Freddie McGregor, Dean Fraser, Linval Thompson, Augustus Pablo, The Heptones and many more. This led to a surge of albums mixed by Scientist from various sources throughout the 80's with "Scientist Meets The Space Invaders" being the most noteworthy.

Even though "Dub 911" is one of Scientist's strongest releases.It will surely find its way to fans of Jamaican dub music.
