SUMMARY:Dub Pistols Sound System
DESCRIPTION:Global Beats presents:  Dub Pistols Sound System (DJ &amp\; MC
  set) // Easy Skankin Sound System\n\nTicket info here: https://buytickets
 .at/globalbeats/383024\n\n\nThe Dub Pistols formed about a decade ago when
  Barry Ashworth got together with Jason O’Bryan in west London. Jason ha
 d been half of Wall Of Sound act Ceasefire with Derek Dahlarge\, while Bar
 ry was in ‘indie-dance’ band Déjà Vu who had a hit with the old Wood
 entops song ‘Why Why Why’ back in the day. Finding they shared a love 
 of The Clash\, The Specials\, Andy Weatherall\, King Tubby and Public Enem
 y the band launched with a string of party-rockin’ singles like ‘Cyclo
 ne’\, ‘Westway’ and ‘There’s Gonna Be A Riot’ and landed a mil
 lion dollar record deal with major label Geffen. “It was the start of a 
 beautiful nightmare\,” says Barry.\nChewing up hip-hop\, dub\, techno\, 
 ska and punk and spitting them out in a renegade futuristic skank\, the Du
 bs began playing full live band shows and were soon on giant US tours. In 
 the UK they got lumped under the big beat tag alongside the Chemical Broth
 ers and Fatboy Slim – maintaining a rock &amp\; roll attitude to their b
 lock-rockin’ beats.\nTheir debut ‘Point Blank’ album led to remix wo
 rk for Moby\, Limp Bizkit\, Crystal Method and Ian Brown\, and they did a 
 track for the Blade 2 soundtrack with Busta Rhymes. Touring extensively\, 
 the band effectively swerved around the ‘big beat backlash’ in the UK 
 and as the Millennium passed they had their second album – ‘Six Millio
 n Ways To Live’ – ready to go. A more politicised affair\, the problem
  was that parts of the album were scarily prophetic.\nIn recent years the 
 Dub Pistols name has continued to circumnavigate the globe\, thanks to a n
 umber of high-profile gigs with the full band\, and various ‘Soundsystem
 ’ dates – DJ + scratch DJ + MC – or Barry DJing solo. The band compi
 led a ‘Y4K’ beats and breaks album\, and the pieces of the jigsaw fell
  into place for ‘Speakers and Tweeters’.\n
