In May 2021, the world lost musician, producer, composer and bandleader, Nick Page, aka Count Dubulah. Having worked on 200+ albums and singles during his illustrious career, Nick Page was also working on a new collection of songs in his last few months. These last recordings of Nick Page with Dub Colossus, the project Nick founded in 2008, are released today through Real World X.
Dub Will Keep Us Together was co-produced by Nick Page, Toby Mills and Nick’s life partner, Cristina Moran aka Dubulette. It reflects on collective understanding as a resistance to the global forces shaping our societies, — a shared struggle for justice, bound together by love. Themes of unification, diversity and cultural inclusivity permeate the album’s vocals and timeless rhythms.
Original singers and musical heavyweights from Nick’s collective Dub Colossus feature on Dub Will Keep Up Together such as the incredible Ethiopian vocalist Mimi Zenebe, London saxophonist and flautist, Ben Somers, and British ground-breaking percussionist, Paul Chivers.
Throughout his life, Nick Page was known for uniting musicians and singers from across the globe to produce timeless world-class global fusion. Dub Will Keep Us Together is his last indelible musical stamp on the world, produced with friends from across great cultural divides to create music without borders.
