Free Your Mind is a dub afro jazz fusion track by Unlisted Fanatic, part of the UFO COLLECTIVE concept that is unfolding through the interaction with the Moonshine Horns and the vocal talents of MariJah.

Is the UFO Collective something new? YES it is, at the same time it's NOT ! It's an evolution of some sorts. UFO is short for Unlisted Fanatic OuterSpace Collective, which is the realm where Belgian's finest dub producer incorporates a distinct influence from afrobeat, ethio, jazz … Collectively we explore the borders of the genre and go beyond. Very much dub but also a bit more. The universe is ever expanding and meant to be explored.

Bye Bye to the soundsystem? Definitely NOT ! We keep doing what we do, firmy rooted in dubwise roots music, but there is room to dwell in outer space and visit other galaxies. Some UFO Collective tracks will fit the soundsystem easily. Other tracks are fit for a stage show. We are confident in our ability to adapt to the stage and read the crowd ! The UFO Collective influence succes was proven last summer by Ubuntu Time, one of Unlisted Fanatic's first afro dub experiments, scored massively through worldwide play by the big man Iration Steppas. Reaching the pinnacle at Rototom's Dub Academy when he dropped it at the beach session. Ubuntu Time is also named as one of the tunes of Dub Camp Festival dropped in the Soundsystem meeting arena by Lion's Den Soundsystem. I'll post links below. Dub-Up Records took the occasion to released a limited edition 12" vinyl which sold out in 15 minutes.

So what's the plan? Unlisted Fanatic will continue down the road he's been travelling. Some nice international gigs are already confirmed for 2023. A couple new dub tracks will surface and an album for the UFO Collective is in the making. Free Your Mind is the first step to pave the way for the album. For all the punters out there: "YES, Ubuntu Time will feature on the album". Enjoy the music.

Cheers & thanks,

Martin - Unlisted Fanatic
