Matthew Herbert & Momoko Gill – Babystar (Herbert’s Anything Dub)

Matthew Herbert reworks “Babystar” with Momoko Gill into a tripped-out, thumping dub that sits comfortably on the dancefloor or blasting through headphones.

Herbert samples and manipulates Momoko Gill’s vocals from the original, adding darkly mysterious undertones that transform the already striking tune in unexpected ways. The production balances a danceable vibe with more negative-leaning sounds, creating tension between movement and mood.

Released via Strut on December 3, the dub version shows Herbert working with contemporary sounds while maintaining his signature approach to vocal treatment and atmospheric production. Momoko Gill’s voice becomes another instrument in Herbert’s hands, stretched and reshaped to serve the track’s darker purpose.
