    "comment": "By request for Rafael in Peru!\n--\n“El genio del dub” is Los Fabulosos Cadillacs tipping their hat directly to the Jamaican studio alchemists who shaped so much of their sound—Lee “Scratch” Perry, King Tubby, Scientist, all the folks who turned mixing desks into instruments. Even in a catalog that constantly blends ska, reggae, salsa, rock, and punk, this track is one of the places where they lean fully into dub logic: bass and drums pushed up front, horns and keys dropping in and out, and space and echo doing as much storytelling as the lyrics.\n\nFabulosos Cadillacs came up in 80s Buenos Aires worshipping the same UK ska and punk that The Clash were part of, then fed that back through Latin rhythms and Jamaican dub to create something distinctly their own. “El genio del dub” lives right in that lineage: a Latin American band using dub not just as a style, but as a political and aesthetic toolkit—very much in the spirit of what The Clash were reaching for when they folded reggae and dub into their own fight‑music.",
