Disadvantages: It's music designed for sound systems. Sound quality suffers.

...are taken from the 1970s and compiled under the ‘Ocho’ label. The album is over an hour and four minutes long. Cassava Piece is the first and arguably the best track. It is from the ‘Original Rockers’ album and is the best introduction for any listener wondering what is to come.

...This music and album is one to appreciate. Salmonella Dub hails from Kaikoura, New Zealand and were formed in 1994. One Drop East is Salmonella Dub's second major album released in New Zealand in 2004. This albums shows that the bands dub music has matured since their first album Killervision was released in 1999, which was released to critical acclaim.
