Dub Weekend in Utrecht begin Juni

29-03 weekend vol dub in utrecht begin juni

9 & 10 Juni | De Helling & dB's Studio, Utrecht

9 JUNI - King Shiloh is een internationaal opererend Sound System uit Amsterdam, opgebouwd rondom de uit Londen overgewaaide Bredda Neil. (Voor wie niet weet wat een sound system is: sound systems ontstonden in de jaren vijftig in Jamaica en zijn – oneerbiedig gezegd – een soort mobiele discotheken die zich hebben toegelegd op ska, reggae en dub.)

King Shiloh verspreidt de blijde boodschap van Jah Rastafari op allerlei plaatsen en manieren, maar toch het liefst op de dansvloer met vette dub. Verwacht dj's, mc's, singers/chanters en heel veel speakers om die diepe bassen lekker te laten zoemen!

Dub A Ware are a group of Dub fanatics that hail from Utrecht. As a response to the lack of Dub and Soundsystem culture in their hometown they decided it was time to organise some Dub events. Founded in 2013 they first hosted party’s in different venues. After hosting an area of the Counter Culture festival the Dub A Ware crew ended up playing the afterparty in dB’s studio. As of that moment they collaborated with dB’s and since then Dub A Ware party’s are held in this wonderful place. Dub A Ware has invited numerous Soundsystems like Jah Marshall, Tjo Tjo, Covenant, Pacha Mama, Backattack and Masego to name a few. Not only nationals Systems got to play the party’s also HeadSessions, Hosanna and Messenjah and the Real Rockers came over from the Uk and Portugal. The main drive for the crew and the contributors is the love of music and also the D.I.Y. ethics. The party’s are defintely on a non profit base and every tribe is welcome.

10 JUNI - Masego soundsystem is a handbuilt roots and dub soundsystem collective based in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
Taking inspiration from the original Jamaican and United Kingdom soundsystem culture they have been active since 2009 as selectors going by the name of Original Dub Radix.

After a couple of years playing various events they felt the need for a strong link in their own hometown. They started to organize events in Rotterdam and worked with King Shiloh Soundsystem, Nish Wadada, Murray Man, Ras Ibi, Jah Version, Black Omolo, Jah Rootz, Mystic Pulse, Lyrical Benjie, Out of Many Soundsystem, Shamba Lion Soundsystem, Justice soundsystem, Roots Plaque soundsystem and many more.

While hosting various successful events in and around Rotterdam and being booked on festivals in the Netherlands and abroad they never stopped working on their own soundsystem. With a burning passion for the culture, the roots and the dub they saw the moment their soundsystem came alive and with that, the birth of a new name. Masego means Blessed in the Tswana language, the name reflects to the mission and the passion of JAH music. Now armed with their 6 scoop soundsystem they continue their works, spreading the message of Rastafari itinually.

Warm up will be done by I-Yyahman Sound.
InI (meaning you and me as being One and the same) believe in the mystical powers of The Soundsystem. InI believe a Soundsystem can be used as an instrument to build UP community and Lift ones and ones Spirit UP. Soundsystem Culture is a place to come together in Unity and a moment to let go of InI daily ordeals.
