Augustus Pablo

Horace Swaby (21 Juni 1953 - 18 Mei 1999)^[1] anajulikana kama Augustus Pablo, alikuwa mtayarishaji wa rekodi za reggae na dub kutoka Jamaika na akiwa na ujuzi wa kutumia vyombo vingi, akifanya kazi kuanzia miaka ya 1970 hadi kifo chake. Alieneza utumizi wa melodica (chombo wakati huo kilitumika sana Jamaika kufundisha muziki kwa watoto wa shule) katika muziki wa reggae. Albamu yake King Tubbys Meets Rockers Uptown (1976) mara nyingi huchukuliwa kuwa moja ya mifano muhimu ya miziki ya dub.^[2][3]
