Reviews & Discussion
When people think of dub, Jamaica usually comes to mind. So it’s quite surprising to consider that Emo and his debut album This Is My Home has what appears to be a Scandinavian last name. Chalk it up to globalization. But there definitely is that laidback dub vibe running through the entire album, from the opening title track to his collaboration with Boozoo Bajou (“Can’t Take No More”). “Relief for Fire” settles into a house tempo but maintains the good feeling. “The Real Thing” establishes a more romantic, swooning mood, while “High in the Sky” goes for a downtempo R&B feel. “Minds Work” pumps up the BPM to something danceable and “Breakadawn” goes in for some deep funk. It’s definitely listenable, but needs a little more to make it essential.
