Strong 1D lattices usually lead to unconnected two-dimensional gases. The long-range character of the dipole-dipole interactions leads to a novel scenario where non-overlapping gases at different sites may interact significantly. We show that the excitations of non-overlapping condensates in 1D optical lattices acquire a band-like character, being collectively shared by different sites. In particular, the hybridization of the modes significantly enhances the rotonization of the excitations, and may induce roton-instability. We discuss the observability of this effect in on-going experiments.
