Salmonella Dub
Salmonella Dub is a dub/drum n bass/reggae/roots band from New Zealand. The band was formed in 1992 by Andrew Penman, Dave Deakins, and Mark Tyler. The band has toured extensively throughout New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom, and Ireland. Along with other 1990s bands including Hallelujah Picassos and Supergroove, the 'Dubsters' have been called pioneers of a unique Pacific style of dub/drum 'n' bass/reggae/hip hop and groove-based rock containing elements of the Polynesian hip hop style known as Urban Pasifika. The band helped foster and tour acts like Fat Freddy’s Drop, Shapeshifter, Cornerstone Roots, Kora, and Trinity Roots, as well as the new wave of Australian acts like Budspells, Rastawookie, King Tide and Red Eyes. Salmonella Dub helped break new ground in an Australasian alternative music scene which was dominated through most of the 1990s by straight guitar rock and electronic dance music.
