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....

Sound System culture is so much more than were often led to think.

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

Yes! Anyone know the origin of the map at 05:03? Would like to see the whole country

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).

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.

The dj is a scientist and magician. To make something happen with very little material, with no money, giving out good vibes and to make people dance is magical.

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.

Who is Tariq Nasheed and why do American hip hop heads need to see this? You mean because of the sound system culture? I wonder whether that was already happening before Herc moved there. Disco Mario had his own parties going before Herc from what people say.

What came first? The chicken or the egg? Just because Yanks had their own version doesnt mean it was copied from Jamaica. Its likely people had house/street parties or bbqs already and eventually they decided to just use bigger speakers. Same as Jamaicans.

Wrong, brothers were playing their music out on the parks before Herc. American Blacks wasn't into reggae in the 70's, it was breakbeats, funk and some disco.
