SOUND SYSTEM CULTURE

Posted on 2014-06-30

As part of Mandeep Samra’s Huddersfield-based sound system culture project, this book documents and celebrates Huddersfield’s role and development of the UK’s sound system culture.

The market town of Huddersfield, nestled within the Pennine Hills of West Yorkshire, has made a remarkable contribution to UK sound system culture. From Armagideon to Zion InnaVision, the Arawak club to Venn Street, Matamp to Valv-a-tron, this unlikely location has been a stronghold of the British scene, yet has remained largely overlooked.

Written by Paul Huxtable (who operates Axis sound system) and edited and designed by Al Fingers, the book documents the subculture’s history from the initial migration of Jamaicans to the UK after World War II, to the pioneers and early adopters that solidified the sound’s presence in Europe. The book includes never before seen images and stories surrounding the rise of this UK sound system scene and celebrates the people who helped establish Huddersfield as the reggae and sound system capital of northern England.
