Asian Dub Foundation feat. Greta Thunberg
Youth Quake Pt 1
(Greta Speaks)
Release Date: Out Now
When an irresistible force like
Asian Dub Foundation and the immovable object of the formidable Greta Thunberg
meet then sparks are sure to fly and ‘Youth Quake Pt 1 (Greta Speaks)’ is the
results of those sparks. Taking the now famous U.N. speech by Climate Justice
seeker Thunberg and setting it to some classic ADF beats and melodies is a
stroke of genius and can only help to get the message out to an even wider
audience. Eerie flutes are soon blown out of the water by a steady dub beat and
menacing bass line which allows Thunberg to do the talking which hits even
harder in this setting. The video is a montage of nightmarish images made worse
by the fact that they are all accurate and likely to happen to our planet if
they haven’t already. Oh, and if Thunberg’s passion, compassion, articulacy and
drive aren’t impressive enough on their own then this has to be one of the most
punk lines of all time; “I don’t care about being popular, I care about climate
justice and the living planet”. Are you listening yet?
