Salmonella Dubs 4th LP "Inside The Dubplates" is by far the most seamless recording to date.The LP captures the bands diverse musical styles with elements of the X factor from the groups live shows. The LP has been released in New Zealand, Australia, France and Belgium through Virgin Records. It has recently gone double platinum in their home country of New Zealand. The group have also just received awards for being New Zealand's Top live band, Best international achievers and for the engineering work on Inside the Dubplates. The LP has just been completely remixed and is about to be released as "Outside The Dubplates" by Groove Corporation, Dj Digital and Spirit, Dreadzone, Mad Professor, Adrian Sherwood, 10 Sui, David Harrow,ZionTrain, DLT and Jagwah for a European release and tour in July. The bands 3rd LP Killervision produced by David Harrow saw the band further dabble into the world of versions, teaming up with Mad Professor, James Hardway, Pitchblack, DLT, The Nomad Son.Sine and others to rework tracks. These dub and dance versions combined with video releases saw Killervison go Platinum in NZ. It picked up a number of prizes at campus radio B-net awards and was released in Australia, France and the Middle East. The bandsupported these releases with tours through Australia on the "Big Day Out" circuit, a tour to France for the Transmusicales Festival and a mission to Dubai. IN THE BEGINNING ============================== ========== Salmonella Dub began in the summer of 1992/1993 when Andrew, Dave and Mark applied reggae rhythms and bowel stiring basstones to a handful of bad taste covers. Salmonella Dub's first show was a mixture of covers from Fred Dagg to Nancy and Lee plus some original material in the Westport Racetrack tearooms with EST on January 13th 1993. Over the course of 1993 the band with the aid of Ice Mac and his soundsystem worked the Dux de Lux and Steel Magnolia bars with percussionists Marcus Puentener and Craig Allen. Later in the year they hooked up Pete Wood on Keys and Trumpet and Conan Wilcox on Sax and percussion. This line up remained constant for their first 3 independent recordings and releases. The band toured NZ regularly and teamed up to do shows with Mad Professor,African Headcharge, Alex Patterson, Infectious Grooves amongst others. Around the time of the THC Winter release Pete Wood left the band to move to Auckland and their current sound engineer David Wernham left to work with Shihad. Tiki Taane was the last member to join the band and was quick to learn the Dub ethic extending the mixing desk further into the realms of musical instrument. With the release of their 2nd LP Calming of the DrunkenMonkey the band began using Virgin music as a distributor, toured Australia regularly and began links with more European artists. www.salmonelladub.com for more details.. __________________ R.O.A.Respected!
