This is a Carnival warm-up for the beard-scratching, tote bag-wielding contingent. An homage to Sound System culture, this event also celebrates 40 years since R&B group Aswad recorded their seminal UK reggae LP ‘Live & Direct’ at Notting Hill Carnival in 1983.
With systems from London, Leeds and Ipswich taking part, EartH's state-of-the-art 3D sound system will show-case new live Aswad recordings, remixed especially for EartH's sound system, with specially commissioned visuals by Your Mum.
Performing alongside Aswad are Black Obsidian Sound System and Ital Rockers
