But it is dub, and what's at work is the old dub trick of suggesting what's not there, what's been dispensed with. I imagine that, at some point in the future it will be possible to dance quickly and furiously to "World of Echo", once the rust-marks of the beat-grid have made a sufficiently inedible mark on the folk-memory, enabling the listener to refer to his ancient insticts to know what to do with his feet.
