Mad Pro's dub remix of Massive Attacks album 'Protection' was flames

Quote

No Protection features eight tracks from Massive Attack's best selling Protection album completely remixed and remodelled by Britain's master of the Futuristic Dub groove...The Mad Professor.

The Mad Professor (a.k.a. Neil Fraser) has been producing tripped-out dubscapes from his South London studio Ariwa Sounds since the early '80s and is considered by many to be the British equivalent of Jamaican Dub legend, Lee Perry. As the British press has more than adequately attested, No ProtectionL is a spaced out, dub heavy, re-interpretation of the Bristol, England drum 'n' bass sound; no mean feat considering the already innovative reputation of the original. No Protection is a perfect soundtrack to late nights and lazy afternoons, and a tantalizing new episode in the resurgence of the Dub phenomenon.

Kid Koala, Wax Tailor, DJ Krush, DJ Vadim, Martina Topley-Bird, Kosheen, Faithless, Morcheeba, Gorillaz, Tricky, Cut Chemist and Moloko. Probably the biggest names that weren't mentioned before. Or the new Stoupe project.
