Heavy Mono E

5am on a Monday morn, life is good until the 'suits' come out.

Lyrically inspired watching the suited gentry walking to work down Victoria St after we'd had a long weekend out in Christchurch back in the bad old days of the Gladstone and Pete's burger bar.

A Mant inspired session produced by Harry Bretherton and featuring drunken swagger Bone from Scotty Taitoko.

Mark Tyler Bass, synth.
Dave Deakins, drums vocal
Andrew Penman Guitar, time machine and lyric

“The whakapapa of our environment should enter our consciousness more fully to counterbalance the nonsensical technological developments in order to enable us to 'Return to our Kōwhai' to nature where we belong."

Return to our Kōwhai feat. Whirimako Black VIDEO MIX

Drop East album. This pic is of our Survivor Mani Penman drifting on the Abel Tasman ;-)

One Drop East

Dub Survivor

Platetectonics [Fartyboom]

Freak Local

Octopus

This tune was originally recorded for Inside the Dubplates. We received a sample from the Wytaliba Community crew of a recording of the NSW feds stating "I got no Warrant" during a Helicopter raid on their land. We played a party there after they had been awarded a 1.3mil pay out through the NSW courts for a false search.

The Pic is a selfy from Rudeboy Savage up the Wytaliba creek after a lovely evening hanging with Rock Wallabies ;-)

Salmonella Dub wrote WORLD SHE WAITS with Nino Birch in September 2017 at the beginnings of Salmonella Dub's 25yr celebrations after Nino's seminal 80's Wellington post punk band Beat Rhythm Fashion was rejected as Salmonella Dub's influential NZ band  choice to perform their tube PROBLEMS at Sal Dub's invitation from NZ Recorded Music to accept a Tui "Legacy - Hall of Fame" award."

The band graciously accepted the invite but when they were told 6 weeks out from the awards that Beat Rhythm Fashion would be suitable as they did not fit the Awards TV show demographic.

So the band politely turn the award down and released World She Waits - Nov 20 the week of the NZ Music Awards - stating  "We too young for a legacy. We're only half way - please check back in 2043 for our 50th" and having connected with Nino gave him 3 new album tunes to work on, Andy's Jam - Shaping Ground & WSW.

World She Waits - started as an out take from the One Drop East Session in Outautahi 2003. The instrumental bed was rediscovered by Mant and arranged by Andrew  produced by Harry Bretherton - features the inspired lyrical prowess of Nino Birch on global issues, corporate greed and land right clashes both here in Aotearoa and with native American tribes affected by the Dakota oil pipeline project. 

Falsetto backing vox from Dave Deaks + extended Bone motifs and solo from Scotty Taitoko on bone. 

Big phat bass in ya face from Mark Tyler.
Gat chops, melodies and time machine delay from Andrew P.

Extra "Dj' vox from MC the Mighty Asterix.

Mastered by King Willy in Tasmania

Salmonella Dub began in 1992 crafting their name from the “bad-taste” dub cover versions of songs they used to break the ice amongst their original tracks in their early sets. In ’90s New Zealand, dub/roots/reggae freak-outs weren’t entirely in vogue — grunge and dance music held sway — so Salmonella Dub would use lighthearted covers of Nancy Sinatra, The Orb’s Little fluffy Clouds, plus Public Enemy and Fred Dagg’s “Larry Loves Barry” to win over skeptical audiences.

In the early ’90s, New Zealand’s liquor licensing laws changed, allowing pubs and clubs to stay open late and revitalizing the country’s live music scene. Members of the band then called Golf Course Alligators seized this opportunity and, in late 1992, Andrew Penman (guitar), Mark Tyler (bass), and Dave Deakins (drums) became Salmonella Dub. In the early days they lacked money for a sampler and used DIY solutions by hooking up an on/off foot pedal to the motor of a cassette player in order to drop samples by foot in real time from tape on stage. These samples would come from whatever was on the TV at the time, whether it was the news or a Cheech & Chong movie. Lacking the funds for cassettes, they raided the bins of a record store and found discarded copies of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles albums that served as their early tape stock.

To prepare for their first, self-titled album in 1994, Peter Wood (trumpet, keyboard) and Conan Wilcox (saxophone, percussion) were invited to join the band. Salmonella Dub was released through the independent label Curious Records. Following quickly from this album the band released Dub Tomfoolery a 7 track EP with mixing contributions from Mike Hodgson of Pitchblack.

Soon afterwards, Wood left the band, moving to Auckland and getting a job to pay his student overdraft. Around this time Penman made contact with David Harrow (ONU sound) through Grant Fell of the Headless Chickens. Harrow was employed to work on their next EP THC Winter the band’s first foray into Jungle and DnB in 1995.
