Secret Life of Sound Systems
It’s about bass and reggae music. It’s about community and unity. It’s about prodigious stacks of enormous speakers. Nick Atkinson corrals the main players in Aotearoa’s small, but determined community of Sound System wranglers, they who build and shift heavy bins upon which reggae of all vintages is played. For some it’s an exercise in nostalgia, for others they’re tapping a new vein of recordings from artists who want revive reggae’s core themes of togetherness and social justice.

Moisty Atsushi
“Moisty” Atsushi Ukito is a Japanese ex-pat living in Auckland. His reverence for original 1960s Jamaican ska music and in particular The Skatalites inspired him to compose and produce his own music which pays tribute to the authentic vintage Jamaican sound that he loves. Atsushi talks to Dubhead about his singular, almost fanatical vision and the arduous process taken to reach the completion of this unique project.
