Biography:
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.
The two producers originally met in Auckland (NZ) where they formed the electronic dance group Redivider in 1996.
Their early involvement in integral events such as the gathering helped form the early dance music scene in New Zealand and gained them a cult following and extensive radio play on alternative radio.
Ben and Ben both moved to Melbourne in 2000 along with fellow producer Freq (Aran Gallagher) where they formed the production studio ‘Polygon Labs’.
Initially working on solo projects under the pseudonyms B. Hartless and Dr. Benway, the two Bens started collaboration again in 2003 with a new dubwise sound.
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".
Both members are also involved in other groups: Ben Hartley is in Nyquist (http///www.myspace.com/nyquistrecords)with Aran Gallagher (Freq) and Ben Dudding is in Alpha Channel (www.myspace/alphalounge)which is about to release an album on Omelette Records.
With the debut album released, they are currently working on material for the next Album.
