Dub Side of the Moon is a dub reggae tribute to the Pink Floyd album, The Dark Side of the Moon, co-produced by Easy Star All-Stars founder's Michael G (Michael Goldwasser) and Ticklah (Victor Axelrod).[1] Dub Side of the Moon has remained on the Billboard Reggae Charts since its release in 2003.[2] Included with the liner notes are instructions on how to synchronize the album with the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz and produce a variation of the perceived "Dark Side of the Rainbow" effect. The album has sold over 85,000 copies thus far and Easy Star All-Stars have been regularly touring in support of the album.
A DVD of a live performance of Dub Side of the Moon was released by the Easy Star label in July 2006.
In 2010 the album was remixed in a bass-heavy dub style and reissued as Dubber Side of the Moon[3]
