Product Details

Pachy García came up in the Los Angeles underground scene, where his one-man approach to dub production caught the ear of Relix-affiliated circles long before the wider world caught on. Rooted in the echo-chamber traditions of Kingston but filtered through a distinctly West Coast sensibility, his layered, self-contained recordings feel simultaneously ancient and alive, the work of someone who absorbed the source material deeply enough to make it his own.


As a young, university-trained musician looking to find his way in the tropical space, Pachy García (a/k/a Pachyman) became obsessed with old Jamaican dub records like those from King Tubby and Scientist, determined to re-create the vibe in his own way. “I started recording myself and trying to emulate those old school recordings," Garcia says. The Return of Pachyman is entirely self-produced, featuring García on vocals, guitar, drum, bass, and keyboards.
