The name says it all: Dub Spencer & Trance Hill catapult hand-played dub into galactic realms. The four musicians send basslines hurtling through delay universes, ignite flashes of organ and guitar, and unleash a soundscape on stage that hypnotizes and captivates. Instrumental, electronic music—live!Ever since their legendary session with the Godfather of Dub, Lee “Scratch” Perry, they’ve been synonymous with an uncompromising dub sound—driving, futuristic, and with a live energy that’s second to none. Over 400 concerts from Portugal to Estonia have cemented their reputation as one of Europe’s best live dub bands.Drummer Julian Dillier delivers beats with the precision of a Swiss chronometer, while bassist Masi Stalder lays down vibrating low-frequency waves beneath them. Keyboard and effects virtuoso Philipp Greter weaves spirals of echo into the room that tie every brain in knots, and Michael Bucher fires guitar riffs like laserbeams across the crowd. At the controls, sound alchemist Umberto Echo condenses the action into a 360° mix that hits from all directions.Their remixes? A fusion of playful energy and acoustic precision—enriched by collaborations with British electronic icons Gaudi, Tim Bran (London Grammar) and Youth (The Orb), or the Swiss duo Yello—an upgrade with depth.In the herbst of 2025, their new album *Synchronos* was released, accompanied by an extensive club tour through Central Europe. Cell phone off, mind free—the bass takes over.
