It all started with the song "Passion Before Fashion", which was produced in 2015. The song was a demo version for a long time because I didn't have any ideas on how to finish it. Until 2021. when I finished it and sent it to David (Warrior Charge). David liked the song and decided to publish the song as one side of the 10-inch vinyl release, but because of the whole situation with the lockdown everything work and music related, like everywhere in the world, significantly slowed down the whole process. Since David and I were in contact all the time, the story renewed itself at the end of 2022, but with the idea of publishing a whole album instead of a single. Except for the song "Passion before fashion", I produced the rest of the album between the end of 2022 and May 2023. Vanya O appears as a guest on the album and is an artist whose work I highly appreciate and follow from the very beginning. A person who has always been a great inspiration and it is impossible for me to describe how glad I am for this collaboration. During the production of the songs, Matt and Billie (Woodland Records) and Vedran (PDV Records) joined the whole story as great support, and the vinyl idea turned to reality with such ease. Matt did the Mastering (Pressure Mastering), Vedran managed connections for the publishing of the record and everything that goes together with that. All of them, together with David, are the publishers and distributors of the album. We knew from the very beginning that the cover artwork would be done by our dear friend Marko Vojnić Gin (Foreigners Everywhere). Marko did an excellent job in a very short time and delivered artwork that fully complements the story of the album. Finally, once again I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. It was a pleasure and very easy to work with you and to go through the whole process with you. And last but not least. Big thanks to all the friends and the people who follow and support my work. You are equally important in all of this. We all finished another chapter together. The song "Depth of the Ocean" is a song about challenges and new adventures... Until some new adventures and chapters, thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Dubar Sound has been in dub music for more than 15 years. After several self-released albums in the earlier days (2007-2012), 2017 marks a new chapter in his work. From that period until now he has released 3 albums, several singles on various labels, several collaborations and several vinyl releases for publishers such as Warrior Charge, Woodland Records, Amplifyah Music, PDV Records, Do it With Others, Homegrown Sound, Paproota... His newest studio work is the album "Dream Reality" released on Warrior Charge, PDV and Woodland Records. It is also his first full-length album released on vinyl. At his performances, he exclusively plays his own production, and the list of performers he performed and collaborated with, as well as the festivals/events at which he has performed is growing year by year. In addition to dub music, he is also musically active in other projects and genres, and he considers that this is just the beginning. Grateful for his accomplishments but still striving to be even better at what he does in the future.
