SOUL LOVE TRIPPA 12” 

Salmonella Dub featuring Nino

This be a brand new tune, featuring the awesome Nino Birch from Beat Rhythm Fashion.

World She Waits, is the beginnings of Salmonella Dub's 25 year celebrations.

Tune Includes; Scotty Taitoko on bone, shouts out from the Mighty Asterix, mastered by King Willy and produced by the epic Harry Bretherton.
Drums, ride, backing vocals from Dave Deakins, big phat bass in ya face from Mark Tyler and some gat chops, melodies and timemachine from Andrew P.

Driving Aunt Daisy to Meet Nino's People was the initial working title for Salmonella Dub’s 25th single World She Waits launched to radio this week to celebrate the beginnings of the bands 25th birthday.

The tune became a collaboration with Nino Birch from Beat Rhythm Fashion, the band’s choice of an influential artist to represent them at the New Zealand Music Awards this week. Unfortunately, that never was to be as Recorded Music NZ rejected Salmonella Dub’s choice stating that the ‘show producer’ had never heard of the iconic Wellington group. Because of that Beat Rhythm Fashion were deemed too obscure for the TV show demographic and Salmonella Dub stood down from accepting the offer of a ‘Legacy Award’.

Our great Aunt Daisy was of course the famous NZ radio broadcaster from the 30's to the 60's. Like the Recorded Music NZ she was a fast talking sponsor-product-placer who was seriously lacking in knowledge and content. So during our writing mahi with Nino, Aunt Daisy became a cheeky euphemism for the Recorded Music NZ ;-)

Nino’s, World She Waits lyrics were inspired by global issues, corporate greed and land right clashes both here in Aotearoa and with native American tribes affected by the Dakota oil pipeline project.

ARTIVIST : contracting based on the Nash Equilibrium

ARTIVIST : creative developed a series of contracts that involve a shared risk/shared profit that helps venues & artists achieve a common goal - successful events.

The contract method, developed for Salmonella Dub, reduces standard deposits & works on a percentage break of gross profit; both the artist & the venue need to expel effort to maximise returns & both benefit greatly by working together to achieve this success.

"We modelled the contract at a couple of gigs earlier this year & it went well... since then a major festival has picked up the idea & it was essential in securing acts" says JoFF Rae of the contract... "the key is to make an agreement & see the benefits to yourself & to others in the equation & stick to it through to delivery - possibly a practical example of the Nash Equilibrium."

The NYE festival La De Da picked up the contracting method & with help from JoFF Rae secured all of its acts on $10K in deposits; the event sold out in 10 days.  However Rae was concerned that the promoter had not shared the complete success of the event with the acts, only declaring 10,000 PAX sales when there was 13,500 PAX.  This defeats the purpose of the contracting ethic.

The Nash Equilibrium - informal definition:  From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Informally, a set of strategies is a Nash equilibrium if no player can do better by unilaterally changing his or her strategy. To see what this means, imagine that each player is told the strategies of the others. Suppose then that each player asks himself or herself: "Knowing the strategies of the other players, and treating the strategies of the other players as set in stone, can I benefit by changing my strategy?" If any player would answer "Yes", then that set of strategies is not a Nash equilibrium. But if every player prefers not to switch (or is indifferent between switching and not) then the set of strategies is a Nash equilibrium.

Thus, each strategy in a Nash equilibrium is a best response to all other strategies in that equilibrium.^[3] The Nash equilibrium may sometimes appear non-rational in a third-person perspective. This is because it may happen that a Nash equilibrium is not Pareto optimal. The Nash equilibrium may also have non-rational consequences in sequential games because players may "threaten" each other with non-rational moves. For such games the Subgame perfect Nash equilibrium may be more meaningful as a tool of analysis.

Salmonella Dub - ARTIVIST projects...

Salmonella Dub frontman, manager & driver Andrew Penman & Creative Director JoFF Rae have a long history from the beginnings of the Sal Dub machine; both guys are Fire Horses & "would have been drowned at birth if we were born 2000 years ago in China - either totally destructive or extremely productive" says Andrew...

"I'm excited about the prospects & what is already happening in the fold... Waiheke in February, Easter shows including the Surf Nationals in Gizzy & the chance to work with MC Mana again" says JoFF... "looking forward Spring 2010 is going to be cool with some definite !"

ARTIVIST : creative will be building & designing visual systems & content unique to the Salmonella Dub product & performance...

Freak Local is the first single from Salmonella Dub's brilliant new album Freak Controller... "the rest of the album is brilliant & worth more than one listen... it translates to an opportunity to make some sick sh*t on stage!" says ARTIVIST : creative JoFF Rae. 

We say GET SOME OF THIS!!!
