The record

Title: Scientist – Scientist Wins the World Cup
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1986, Reggae, Dub, Kingston, Jamaica
Condition: New

Cultural Facts:

  1. Studio Lore: A King Tubby apprentice, Scientist mixed like a performer, treating faders and echo as live instruments rather than “post-production.”

  2. Scene Ecology: Dub titles like this were built for sound system competition, where mixes had to hit hardest in the yard, not on radio.

  3. Personal Struggle: Coming up in Kingston’s studio economy meant unstable pay and constant hustle; engineers survived gig to gig while violence and poverty pressed in.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
