Munay Ki Dub - Action

Munay Ki Dub is an electronic dub trio, representing a new breed of dub artists. Hailing up from the mountains of central Argentina, they combine live instruments such as violin, melodica, percussion, bass and guitar with programming, effects and digital instruments. The name comes from the South American Quechua language and means “I Love Dub”. 

In September 2019, Munay Ki Dub released their debut EP “MKD” with  Dubophonic Records, lyrically using the English and Spanish languages as a form of political expression and social awareness/consciousness, musically gliding between digital roots reggae, dub & bass and steppa. Within the first few weeks of its release, MKD was sounding out on radios in Argentina, Peru, Mexico, Italy, Spain, UK, Ireland, Israel, Hawaii, Finland, Belgium, Cyprus, Greece, Turkey, Germany, Holland, France, Australia, Canada and the US.

2020 was a key year for Munay Ki Dub as it saw the band presenting its debut EP at renowned music festival Cosquín Rock 2020, and being chosen by the national newspaper Página12 as one of the best young artists on the festival line-up, alongside artists such as Wos, Duki, Sara Hebe, Mon Laferte and Nathy Peluso.

In May 2020, due to the restrictions, Munay Ki Dub decided to embark on its Cyber Space Tour 2020 which has seen the band participate in online festivals across South America, Asia and Europe, generating interest in local, national and international media including the BBC (UK), Página 12 (AR), La Voz del Interior (AR), and Pelagatos (regional).

Mid-way through 2020, Munay Ki Dub was nominated for the Rootstock Awards in France, having being selected by the jury alongside 23 artists from all over the world. As a result of the public vote, Munay Ki Dub emerged as winners of the Artist Awards 2020.

In September, the band held its own streaming event MKD CLUB which attracted thousands of viewers from across the globe. MKD CLUB was subsequently awarded a national arts prize by La Usina del Arte as one of the best streaming shows during the pandemic.

In June 2021, the band released a remix of Bad Bablyon by French producer Thriakis.

Currently Munay Ki Dub is preparing to release their new EP “Groove of Meditation” with Dubophonic Records, recorded in the mythical Los Angeles studio in Traslasierra, Córdoba, Argentina, with technical production support from renowned sound engineer Felix Valls.

Action is the first single and is available on all digital platforms. Deep textures, booming bass, dubby distortions, introspective lyrics that take you to the very groove of meditation.
