SECRET MASTERS
Melbourne musicians Pieter Bourke and Donnie Dub (aka Brian Westbrook) got together in 2002 to form the SECRET MASTERS after realising they had a mutual appreciation for the Dubwise sounds that originated in the small Caribbean island of Jamaica. Their first album The Lost Dub Tapes was released in 2004 and is widely regarded as a milestone in Australian Dub.
Without pausing to take a breath the SECRET MASTERS began work on another album, this time traveling to Jamaica with a hard drive full of brand new Riddims. Vocal sessions in Montego Bay and Kingston were arranged and these collaborations form the basis for their new album Words, Power, Sound
AGENCY DUB COLLECTIVE
Agency Dub Collective While still in love with all kinds of groove, from hip-hop to dancehall to drum n bass, Agency Dub Collective have reclaimed their deep roots and continue to tap the vein of dub, always with a synonymously deep lyrical wandering. Haunting grooves dabbed in melodica, no-bullshit rhymes over intense dub and a jamming spirit of spontaneity have increasingly hit marks in good folk at shows. ADC regularly play around Melbourne.
DEEP FRIED DUB
Deep Fried Dub is an electronic duo that consists of two Melbourne based producers Ben Hartley (A.K.A B. Hartless) and Ben Dudding (A.K.A Dr. Benway).
The Deep Fried sound is an eclectic mix of contemporary electronic beats with deep dub stylings that crosses genres as diverse as Dub, Drum and Bass, Dance Hall and Deep Tribal Beats.
Ben and Ben both moved to Melbourne in 2000 along with fellow producer Freq (Aran Gallagher) where they formed the production studio ‘Polygon Labs’.
After playing numerous festivals in New Zealand (such as Caanan Downs Festival, Rippon Festival, Alpine Unity), Deep Fried really started getting recognition in Australia in the last couple of years when they started playing at a number of high profile festivals such as Earth Dance and Rainbow Serpent.
Deep Fried Dub are now working with a number of artists including Vocalist Lotus and are working on a number of remixes for various artists including "the Red Eyes" and "Pitch Black".
