Formed in 2008 while studying a music degree at Wintec in Hamilton, electro dub group 'Knights of the Dub Table' dive into sonic frequencies taking audiences on high energy and dynamic live journeys. The bands sound has evolved alongside the bands creative discoveries and musical passions over the years and has matured into the distinctive and dynamic sound that represents the Knights today. Deep heavy bass lines, 3 vocalists/mcs, punchy horn lines and high energy beats is what makes this bands live performance a truly dynamic and exciting experience. Tronic drums, along with dub effects and sonic sound triggers are what make up the 'Dub Table' element of the band, a core and integral part of the bands live performance.
As an independent band, the Knights have taken pride in producing, composing and developing all their own music, sound effects and lyrical content. Front man, Mr Samysamson is responsible for the recording, production and mixing of all their releases to date.
In 2009, the Knights of the Dub Table took home first prize at the 2009 York Street Band Experiments. 2009 saw the Knights release their first EP 'Tronic EP' containing four original Knights tracks and five bonus remixes from Tiki Taane, Optimus Gryme, AUM, Undertow and their very own Mr Samy'samson. The Knights then went on to release the 'Sing It To Me Remix EP' digitally through amplifier.co.nz. in 2010. In 2011 the Knights of the Dub Table released their debut album entitled 'Way of the DUB' which received great reviews among the media and was also nominated for a Maori Music Award.
