On September 27, we bring back to Bucharest the renowned Channel One Sound System, one of the UK's most prestigious roots and dub sounds. With Mikey Dread on selection and Macky Banton on the microphone, playing on the 6 scoops of Riddim Bandits Sound System, Black Rhino Residency starts its residency in Control Club in grand style and fashion.
Channel One's mission is to break down barriers through reggae music. They have achieved this by playing in new venues, at festivals, and in different countries, taking their unique sound to Australia, New Zealand, Israel, Turkey, and all over Europe. Channel One also celebrated 30 consecutive years at the Notting Hill Carnival, making them one of the must-see sound systems for attendees to Europe's biggest street festival.
In 1979, Mikey Dread and his brother Jah T began to play at blues parties and local dances, having spent many years under the watchful eye of their father, owner-operator of the famous Admiral Bailey Sound. They chose the name Channel One in homage to the legendary Jamaican record label of the same name, whose tunes featured heavily in those early selections. Inspired by Bob Marley's belief in uniting people through reggae music, Mikey was keen to introduce new people to dub reggae music and started touring around universities, where he secured a solid fan base.
Channel One Sound System's hand-built, custom speaker stacks provide a rich, heavyweight bass sound that complements their tight selection of old and new dub reggae classics, all played from a single vinyl deck and accented with echoes and sirens.
