Love this….those were the good old days🇬🇧🇯🇲

Thought sl2 was gonna kick in at the end

Influenced by the Mods? Surely the Mods were Influenced by our brothers???!!

Low (infrasonic) bass has its roots in fear.
In nature, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, thunder, avalanches, tornadoes, and hurricanes provide that low warning bass of impending doom; things that humans and animals would naturally run away from.
Over time we have turned that fear into euphoria via listening to huge sound systems in cars and venues. It is now more of a spiritual experience to feel those low frequencies pass through the body and cause natural movement, (dance).

Wanted this be two hours longer

"Mi gone rub out every pleat out of your skirt"

Sound systems started in 🇯🇲 Jamaica.

👍

Tariq nasheed n every American hip-hop fan needs to see this!!!

What a lovely short documentary and seeing Sweetie Irie on it was great as bought his 1991 album.
I would love to see a show on British Calypso as it was the Trindad sound that ruled in the 1950's

Soundsystem culture is largely what created hip hop in the US…..just instead of reggae they played funk breaks….

I always describe Bass as not something you listen to or hear passively is something that's being done to you

Listen to the sound "listen to the music "Doobie Brothers .

Grew up with Relation Sounds 🎧🎤🎚️ & reminds me of the House Party scene trying to get all the boxes in the car "now where am I supposed to sit?"📦🚗🤨🤷🏾‍♀️😂

I remixed all my Steppers tunes from a few years back. They all sound wicked now, please give them a listen!

I worked with a member of Saxon in a Chemist in Crystal palace in 1978!

Ha! Trevor Nelson, you was a Soulhead just like me back in da’ day, but we love we music still.
Sound system map should be exploited and sold!
After visiting JA and seeing as well as feeling the REVERB from WARDROBE sized speakers with 12/15” bass bins and homemade not industrial horn tweeters, UK has few to compete with what they have back ah yard.
Still, Sound-man bring sound-system kulture to the massive.

Love that sound system map

Bob Marley didn't bring Reggae to the UK !! Decker did

I don't know how consider this... a documentary about sound system culture made by a (quite expensive) clothing company... I don't know. However, the doc is nice.

Get real deal sound man to tell the story, not some name brand guy who never go saxon, coxsone, java, tubbys, fatman. Etc, Etc.

Proppa Tingz, some great memories, like; Tippa going from King Tubby's to Saxon was like a top footballer million-dollar transfer signing. In fact, that was a watershed moment, because it brought Brixton and Lewisham together... Remember I told you!... Trussssssss.

Been in sound system since I was 15, was a singer for Scarpion hi power from Harlesden. Cut duplate at Terry Newman studios and Dub vendor at lavender Hill Clapham jct with gussie prento... No music lesson from school could teach me to sing to a crowd at 15, soundsystem is and was my music apprenticeship....
