Dreadland - 2026 Updated Edition

Dreadland represented the culmination of two years studio work, where the tracks evolved and were then engineered to utilise a fresh studio set-up in late 2020. The album eventually came together in summer 2021, with final production work completed in January 2022.

All of the pieces were inspired by traditional Jamaican Roots Reggae and skillfully produced by Andrew Passey (Alien Dread) with assistance from ISR (long time co-producer). The other players involved were Asha B, who has worked with AD for several years in the percussion department and Steven "Marley" Wright, who supplied guitar rhythm and licks.

The album was primarily a digital release with a limited number of CDs initially available. In 2026 we decided to re-issue the collection, and this time include the widely popular track "My Homeland" with a Dub version. My Homeland is without a doubt one of the most popular tracks to date from Iron Sound Records.

The album is available in digipack format from many online music vendors or buy directly from AD Studio, links and samples below.
