Chant Down Sound

Melbourne's original fire sound was formed in 2000 when radio presenter Jesse I linked with longtime reggae selector Ras Crucial. Chant Down play in the Jamaican soundsystem tradition, mixing the freshest Jamaican reggae and dancehall together with vintage classics, custom dubplate specials, and live MCing.

Chant Down's monthly More Fire night is now the longest running monthly reggae session in Australia - check www.chantdown.com for photos from dances past, and details of dances to come.

Jesse I hosts Chant Down Babylon every Saturday from 5-7pm on Melbourne's community radio station 106.7 PBS FM - two hours of pure reggae, from the original vintage Jamaican sounds, through to the freshest new roots from around the world. Tune in live at www.pbsfm.org.au or check the radio-on-demand archive for previous shows.
