Hailing from the Isle of Skye, the legendary Scottish trailblazers have created a glorious mixture of traditional sounds and dance-floor grooves that have been embraced worldwide. Drawing upon a dazzling myriad of influences from jigs and reels through Dance Music, Jazz, African, and more, they bring the sound of Scotland fresh-faced and breathless to the new audiences around the world.

Lubdub is the sound of the HEART - Future Bass Dub Activation - High vibration dance floor meditations into groove, melody and resonance.

Two musical brothers from NNSW, Australia collaborate to create a lush blend of organic instrumentation and psychedelic dubscapes. Regulars at Australian outdoor festivals since 2007, their journey has seen them perform at festivals across the globe, release music on many pioneering labels such as Twisted Records, Shanti Planti and Desert Trax and collaborate with some of their most their most respected peers including Dessert Dwellers, Akara, Kalya Scintilla, Quanta and Grouch.

Lubdub have been cooking away in the Lublab since mid 2007... Crafting and cutting electro- acoustic delights, refining a unique and powerfully flexible live setup that allows the music to spontaneously lead both the musicians and participants alike along an immersive sonic journey trekking through the deserts of Dub/Reggae, the WILDerness of Glitch Bass Music and the wide oceans of World Sounds...

Live guitars, flutes, keys, chant & percussion bring to life their already vivid compositions. Carefully woven & incredibly deep arrangements that continuously evolve, a blending of the organic & electronic, a merging of traditional & modern, a balance of intuition & intention, a synching of left & right hemispheres...

The core of the collective consists of two humble and dedicated musicians:

Fred Freeman (Production, Keys & Audio Wizardry)
Bodhi Seed (Guitar, Keys, Instrumentation & Production)

Both have contributed over two decade of passionate creative expression into Australia’s flourishing live music scene: Fred through his early involvement with live Dub\DnB outfit K-Oscillate, techno project Closer Apart latest project DMTB dimethyltrippybeats and Bodhi as the mastermind behind the legendary Mystic Beats.

Sound the alarm! Australia’s high-powered, high energy, dub and dancehall sub bass vessel Dubmarine are preparing to release their much anticipated début album ‘Depth of Sound’.

2010 has already packed a punch with Dubmarine having just returned from a highly successful European tour taking in shows in Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and The Czech Republic through June/July. Add to that their recent nominations for a Deadly in the Best Band of 2010 category and a Q Song award, the platform is set for their long-awaited full-feature release.

Depth Of Sound features their trademark bass-driven foundations, twin trombone blasts and thunderous synth explosions, the band rocks deep dancehall, reggae, dub, and drum and bass riddims. Lead by the vocal gymnastics of indigenous superstar and Darumbal man D-Kazman, Dubmarine have a mission; to produce the sound and fury of electronic music live, in all of its bass crunching, rhythm pounding, hip shaking fiendish glory, all played by musicians, all real.

Meticulously crafted by studio wizard Andrew Stephens, Depth Of Sound is the culmination of hard work and dedication. The album covers a vast array of genres including reggae, DnB, dubstep, hip hop, dancehall, ambient, minimal and dub, creating a rich sonic soundscape and downright dirty beats.

Released in late 2009, first single Chip was greeted with a fantastic response across the board on community and alternative stations – including most played CD on 4ZzZ in March 2010 (appearing 5 times in the top 20 most played per week), Buzz box playlist on Melbourne’s PBS radio, and reputable showings on 3RRR, FBI, Radio Adelaide and RTR Fm. Chip was also used by the Dreaming Festival in their ads on Foxtel television and by Artlink’s (Indigenous Art magazine) SBS advertising.

On the gigging front, Dubmarine have had a massive 12 months. The bass cranking subsurface adventurers navigated between prime festival appearances in 5 countries and 2 continents, including Amsterdam Roots Festival (Netherlands), Mundial Festival (Netherlands), the Colours of Ostrava (Czech Republic), Alstadtfest (Germany), and the Afro Latino Festival (Belgium), as well as Woodford Folk Festival, the Dreaming Festival, Parklife, and Island Vibe to name a few.

Of course this is just the beginning!

“…a killer drum’n’bass track that left the crowd and I wanting more!”
The Courier Mail

“This is toe-tapping funky, sexy dub at its’ finest.”
