Dubcentral
DUBCENTRAL is a night commited to promoting Reggae and Roots music from the past 40 years to the present day, not just from JA, but the UK and all over the world, it's just gotta have the skank. Started around 6/7 years ago as a Sunday chill out session at the Vine Pub, with one little sound and a kaos pad, before hooking up with other young sounds (Riddimtion, Trouble and 4-Series) to put on the first session at the Everyone Centre, a night called One Love. The night with its hotchpotch of four small sounds cobbled together was certainly not the best soundsystem that's played there, but the night went off with a bang, and it inspired us to carry on and look for ways to improve the nights and sessions. We wanted to bring soundsystems to Sheffield as for a long time there had been no big steppers scene here, so our first gig with Iration Steppas was an eye and ear opener for most people thru the door and people were hooked. Since then its been a long time of trying to keep things fresh, bringing new soundsystems and styles to the night, with our first non stepper night being an album launch for Dancehall giant Daddy Freddy with Underground Roots Soundsystem, other highlights include the Mad Proffessor live PA with Aisha, and of course Vibronics with Iration Soundsystem.
