MINISTRY OF DUB-KEY
is the crossroad of musical genres in exodus and a cunning homage to the vibrance of Palestinian Dabke dance and performance. Established in 2009, DJ/Producer Bruno Cruz and Performer/MC Walaa Sbait brought their homegrown Dabkeh Dance and Mijwiz sounds to match with the beats of hip-hop, dancehall and dembow, announcing with it, the emergence of their unique Arab-A-Dub style. Bridging the sounds and movements that connect the shores of the Caribbean with the hills of the Galilee, sound system culture meets a late night Palestinian street party – and not a beat is amiss.#حركة_الدَب_كي You can listen to Ministry of Dub-Key here

(A musical off-shoot of his band, 47Soul) His electrifying live sets pay homage to this unstoppable and hypnotic musical scene by revamping iconic bootleg tracks and rogue wedding recordings with unstoppable heavy bass rhythms and beats.
