In Dub II is the second collection of Paddy Free remixes of artists from his native Aotearoa/New Zealand, Australia and Mexico. This edition features elements of drum’n’bass and trance alongside his usual copacetic fusion of ancient tradition and contemporary dub production, creating a full-spectrum journey from the very up to the very chill.

One of the pioneers of New Zealand electronica as half of multi-media duo Pitch Black with Mike Hodgson, Paddy Free also has a prolific career as a producer/engineer/remixer (Salmonella Dub, Crowded House, Oceania, Moana & The Tribe), composer for contemporary dance (Atamira, Mau, Black Grace), Ableton Live beta-tester and lecturer, as well as a solo career under his own name.

Since his last collection of remixes, In Dub, dropped in 2016, Paddy has kept busy with Pitch Black, releasing two albums and touring Europe and Aotearoa. On top of that he’s produced and co-written Moana & the Tribe’s album Rima with another album on the way. 

His remixes of Kingfisha, Native Soul Project, Tor.Ma in Dub, Deep Fried Dub, Max Maxwell and Nga Tae find him in fine form, bringing uptempo influences to sit alongside his dub styles. Some tracks transport your body to the dancefloor, others invoke deep meditation, with all displaying Paddy's lush production aesthetic that repays repeated listening.

Zentone Chapter 2

Dub Migration (Zen Mix)

Our breakthrough album has finally been pressed on vinyl.

Ape to Angel took the momentum of our preceding albums to new levels, with the sound becoming fuller and the bass more driving. We tweaked the sounds of club culture around the dub heart of the album, blending sinuous bass lines, simmering rhythms and echoing acidic synths to electrifying effect. We also wrote our first fully vocal song, “Elements Turn”, with veteran singer Sandy Mill, and sampled Estonian satellite transmissions for “Lost in Translation”.

Originally unleashed in New Zealand in October 2004 by Kog Transmissions, the album’s infectious rhythms weaved their way round the world, finding fans from Copenhagen to Cape Town, and securing release in North America by the esteemed Waveform label, Europe by Dubmission and Japan by the cult Wakyo imprint.

Critically acclaimed, with DJ Mag awarding it five stars, the release of Ape to Angel led to a 42 date tour round the world which included our North American debut. Tracks from the album were also picked up for use in CSI: Miami and HBO¹s True Blood, the latter featuring “Freefall" in a vampire orgy scene - perfect.

To create the double-vinyl release, Angus McNaughton re-mastered the original audio files, and Hamish Macaulay adapted the source artwork by Shane Cotton and created a brand new collage for the centrefold using pictures taken at the time. There is also an additional track, Protect The Grain, which was originally only available on the limited edition Flex EP, recorded just before the Ape sessions began.

Whai Atu

Po Ahiahi

The Weka is a flightless bird native to Aotearoa (New Zealand) infamous among local outdoorsmen for pilfering your snacks and scuttling back into the bush when you’re not looking. 

Weka Tek is the pseudonym of electronic artist Brendan Evans (of the same geography), who will always ask politely before he takes a crisp. Known for a distinct hybrid fusion of techno, psychedelic, and dubbed-out frequencies that sound like they emerged from the bush—Weka Tek blends synthesised rhythms with ambient textures to evoke the rich, immersive qualities of Aotearoa’s untamed landscapes.

Based in Ōtautahi, Weka Tek’s music captures a distinctive auditory experience that embodies both the pristine surroundings and a modern, forward-thinking approach to music—mindfully refining elements to bathe your synapses in an undulating continuum of sound that’ll have you stepping like a weka with some fresh campsite loot. Weka Tek’s work transitions seamlessly between reflective armchair-listening and dynamic dance-floor energy—offering a versatile sound that can shape-shift and resonate in various settings.
