What Is Dub ? Does it refer to Nonplace ?

Burnt Friedman says.... "Dub is a method ! It allows me to obtain constantly different results on the basis of the same material. The more pronounced the level of improvisation during the mix, the more the raw material, the original, is forced into the background and sometimes even maltreated to the point of being unrecognizable. The procedure allows me to highlight certain musical features of a song while wholly ignoring other ingredients – most likely foreground components such as vocals or instrumental solos. The resultant numbers (tracks) come closer to my own perspective: they’re de-cored, to put it figuratively, no longer have a centre. From this point of view neither Jazz nor Dub are styles. They are tags made up to avoid the artist´s name, to give them a commonplace, opposed to a Nonplace ! Yet, many many musicians play Jazz and Dub as if it was a style."
