Sumac Dub

Sumac Dub, a rising figure on the French dub scene, returns to Paris for a highly anticipated series of concerts. Prepare yourself for an immersion in enchanting sonorities and profound rhythms at La Maroquinerie.

Sumac Dub, a project initiated by Parisian producer and musician Raphaël Perez, has established itself as a major player in French dub since the early 2010s. Its approach distinguishes itself through skillful fusion between Jamaican dub roots and more contemporary influences, sometimes drawing from electronic or ethnic atmospheres. The project has developed its own sonic identity, characterized by hypnotic basslines, ethereal synthesizer layers, and organic percussion, all enriched by reverberation and delay effects that are the signature of the genre.

Over the years, Sumac Dub has built a coherent and appreciated discography, with albums like "Le Serpent Rouge" or "La Source" that have made an impression. These works testify to constant research of sonic experimentation, while maintaining melodic accessibility. Raphaël Perez, often accompanied on stage by other musicians, has created a universe where oneirism neighbors rhythmic power, inviting the listener to a true inner journey. His ability to create atmospheres that are both meditative and engaging is one of the keys to his success.

Sumac Dub's stage reputation is well-established. The project is renowned for its immersive live performances, where sound is worked with great precision. Each concert is a unique experience, a moment of sharing where the audience is invited to let themselves be carried by the vibrations. Sumac Dub sets are often constructed as sonic odysseys, gradually evolving in intensity and complexity, with palpable interaction between the musicians and the energy of the hall. This passage at La Maroquinerie offers a fine opportunity to discover or rediscover the extent of his talent in an intimate setting conducive to listening.
