LP version. Legendary UK band Asian Dub Foundation is celebrating its 30th Anniversary in 2024! Asian Dub Foundation are a genre unto themselves. Their unique combination of jungliest rhythms, dub bass lines and wild guitar overlaid by references to their South Asian roots via militant high-speed rap has established them as one of the best live bands in the world. The story began in the early '90s when ADF formed from a music workshop in East London at the institution which is their spiritual home, Community Music. Their unique beginnings in a music workshop in east London shaped both their sound and their educational aspirations, setting up their own organization ADF Education (ADFED), plus instigating campaigns on behalf of those suffering miscarriages of justice. Building a solid live reputation in the mid-'90s, they gained worldwide recognition sharing the stage with Rage Against The Machine, the Beastie Boys, Radiohead, and Primal Scream. In 30 years, Asian Dub Foundation have racked up 1000's of unforgettable shows, nine studio albums alongside a social and educational activism that both created the group and sustains them today. In celebration of the longevity of this unique project they present a special album showcasing their many iconic collaborations: 94-Now: Collaborations. Featuring Iggy Pop, Stewart Lee, Chowerman, Sinéad O'Connor, Ed O'Brien, Likkle Mai, Dry and Heavy, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, MC Navigator, Primal Scream, Zebda, Chandrasonic, Chuck D, and Audio Active.

"Right here, right now Asian Dub Foundation are the most important band in Britain."--NME, 1997
London Records present a reissue of Asian Dub Foundation's Rafi's Revenge, originally released in 1998. Rafi's Revenge originally peaked at number 20 on the UK Albums Chart and was shortlisted for the 1998 Mercury Music Prize, with Bobby Gillespie hailing them at the time as "the best live act in Britain". By the time they recorded Rafi's Revenge in 1998, Asian Dub Foundation were primed to explode. Having initially emerged from East London's grassroots Community Music project as a largely studio-based collective, the band had galvanized themselves into a riotously exciting touring machine by the late '90s. Their extraordinary live shows around this period were electrifying to witness, kinetic and dynamic, incendiary, and euphoric, confrontational yet celebratory. For sheer roof-raising energy, they were unrivalled. ADF have evolved enormously over the last two decades, of course, but their breakthrough album remains a fascinating chapter in the real, complex, unwritten history of Britpop. Expanded and enlarged for this 21-year anniversary edition, these multi-layered musical treasures still dazzle and delight with their grandiose ambition and riotous energy. Expanded CD version includes bonus tracks selected by Adrian Sherwood; also features remixes by Dylan Rhymes and Russell Simins. Double-CD version comes in a three-panel digisleeve; 24-page booklet.
