Might be white lable , dub plate came around about 1994 i think .
ie jungle .
I may be wrong, but the term dub plate simply refers to a test press on acetate, this is different from a white label or on actual vinyl.
I am sure some anorak will put me right though
i'm standing under your umbrella....lol.
my understanding is that a dub plate is just a press on acetate for testing purposes. an intermediate media to discover how it presses and works. bloody flimsy things. nice to have thou.
it's a cost thing, once everyone is happy as larry with the dub-plate/test press/acetate -- then the vinyl press will green light.
i always thought 'dub-plate' was coined during the very early jungle or drum and bass era.
it would be really interesting to find out exactly where, when and who actually coined the term.
