SOUND SYSTEM SCRATCH [Pressure Sounds #68]
For more than 30 years, dub plates – exclusive, one-of-a-kind mixes for sound systems – have been a "hidden" part of reggae's history. Pressure Sounds' next release will showcase some of that hidden history, Black Ark style.
Although Lee Perry's eccentric productions from the Black Ark seemed to exist outside of the reggae mainstream, Scratch produced many dub plates between 1973 – 1979, creating exclusive mixes that have never been heard since. These come as a revelation even to the most hardcore Scratch fans.
Sound System Scratch features 19 Black Ark dub plates as well as a treasure trove of rare photographs and archive material. It promises to be one of the most exciting Lee Perry collections for many years.
