Spaghetti Eastern Electro Dub at Green Kill
Spaghetti Eastern Electro Dub is a genre-leaping project founded by Hudson Valley-based guitarist/keyboardist Sal Cataldi. Like his solo project, Spaghetti Eastern Music, it blends various styles to craft a unique fusion of Jamaican dub, Indian raga, electronica, psychedelia, and jazz.
Cataldi’s creative partners in this project are bassist/composer Tom “Spontaneous” Semioli, drummer Dirk Drazen, and Dawoud “The Sufi Renegade” Kringle, wielding a hybrid instrument called the Dautar. The band’s debut release, Live at Green Kill Sessions, was released in March 2025 on Bad Egg Records. The album is available via CD, Bandcamp, Spotify, and other streaming platforms.
