Dub Flash

At least 3 famous dub artists are visible on this picture partying to a Dub Flash tune on an outdoors soundsystem session.

However, the more interesting story is the guy on the left. For several years during the very early Dub Flash years we had a close connection, writing a lot of e-mails back and forth, meeting on sessions in Berlin, seeming to have similar opinions about dub music.

Then at some point, around 2002 or so, he stopped communicating with me from one day to the other. Never found out why. Did something happen? Did I annoy him somehow? Did he die? What was going on? I eventually accepted it.

Then suddenly, in 2010, he is being photographed dancing on a Dub Flash session. Never said a word. Never showed any sign of remembrance. Where was he during the 8 previous years? What happened? Why did he come to my show? My head canon is that he had a severe car accident, lost his memory, and on top of that his laptop with all accounts and passwords on it was stolen, so he never remembered that we were friends once. 😨 But he nonetheless eventually found out how great Dub Flash is and decided to go to a session. 😁

Is anyone reading this? 🤷
