Review

Entertainment Weekly (p.70) - "This exotic set by Wobble, a post-punk vet, scores with its low-grooving dub tracks....His rootsy bass pulse feels like a good massage." -- Grade: B
Uncut (p.107) - 4 stars out of 5 - "MU reasserts Wobble's status as musical visionary and cosmic ambassador."
The Wire (p.65) - "The title track dives into some heavy dub, adding a whirlwind of electronic effects and the odd finger cymbal."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.109) - 3 stars out of 5 - "Here Wobble is at his most animated and melodic, skanking through the idiosyncratic mysticism of 'Viking Funeral', and nodding towards Isaac Haye's cinematic '70s arrangements..."

Title Note

Personnel include: Jah Wobble (vocals, keyboards, bass guitar, programming); Satomi Takada (spoken vocals); Mark Lusardi (guitar, keyboards, programming); Chris Cookson (guitar); Sylvia Hallett (sarangi, viola); Clive Bell (flute, shakuhachi, pipes, background vocals); Jean-Pierre Rasle (pipes, background vocals); Harry Beckett (trumpet).

A sublimely enjoyable dub-influenced ambient and electronic outing by Jah Wobble, the British bassist who first came to fame as a member of John Lydon's Public Image Ltd. MU is a series of instrumental workouts that take their inspiration from ancient religion and modern trash culture in equal measure. "Viking Funeral" is propelled by its mighty bass figure and an appealing vocal chorus, the jazzy funk of "Kojak Dub" conjures the sweaty streets of 1970s New York, and "New Mexico Dub" performs the same trick for sun-baked Southwestern border towns. Wobble excels in playing the thunderous, loping bass lines of his reggae heroes, while the subtle mix of acoustic and electronic instrumentation gives these pieces an almost cinematic sweep.
