Salmonella Dub Soundsystem come armed with 12’ vinyl FOR ALL THINGS ALIVE and KIWI KIDS ARE REMIX KID’s the Soundsystem’s live video mashup of the Dubs 30 year back catalogue of classics & remixed anthems. 

Salmonella Dub originator Andrew Penman aka DJ Rudeboy has added Tuhoe soul diva Whirimako Black to lift the roof with the Mighty Asterix & Salmonella Dub's horn section who have returned from Oz to rehearse a 2hr space weaving journey through the bass-lands of the bands classic Aotearoa heart-beat Dub, switch licking jungle & DnB.

"This is Salmonella Dub Soundsystem's first run of shows since lock-down 2020. So cool to finally have Asterix, Mish & Si back from Oz and Salmonella Dub’s Soundsystem up & running again! And running with our e hoa Freak Local, Ms Whirimako Black. Whiri christened our new Whakatu studio with vocal takes on 5 tracks the night of Richard Nunn's Tangi in June 2021 - we've got a full Whiri meets Bass & Dub playlist - we’ve road tested 3 1hr sets at our Marahau mini fest. The combo of Whiri with Asterix is a roof lifter.

For All Things Alive album has taken a while. We started writing in Jan 2012 the week of our last Kaikoura Roots festival and finished with the last vocal take from Troy Kingi in Whakatu the day of our Sept 2021 lockdown. The first digi EP from the album is TO LOOK FOR GOLD,”
