Reggae Portugal Sound

PT: Uma vez Ijahman Levy disse “…Reggae Portugal is growing slowly but surely…”E tudo começa devido ao programa de rádio "Solar Reggae" e á página Reggae Portugal. Por culpa das excelentes reacções de ambos os projectos, alguns promotores propuseram-nos que colocássemos ao vivo algumas das selecções musicais que divulgávamos semanalmente. Já no ano 2000 colocávamos alguns discos em pequenos bares sobretudo no Algarve. Em Dezembro desse mesmo ano fomos convidados pela Reggae Playground do Bob Figurante para a 1ª apresentação do então criado Reggae Portugal Soundsystem em dois eventos, e logo com um convidado de luxo, a lenda da música jamaicana Jimmy Riley directamente de Kingston - Jamaica. Desde esse momento que Reggae Portugal Soundsystem tem passado por vários bares, discotecas, festivais, etc, de norte a sul do País tocando desde clássicos ás últimas novidades da música reggae, passando inclusivé por dubplates exclusivos de artistas Portugueses, Jamaicanos e de UK.Se estiver interessado em contratar Reggae Portugal Soundsystem pode contactar-nos através dos e-mails: [email protected] ou [email protected]:Once Ijahman Levy said “…Reggae Portugal is growing slowly but surely…”And all have started in July’s 1996 in the south of Portugal where Solar Reggae Radio show (now Reggae Portugal Radio Show at Kiss Fm) was smashing the airwaves every Sunday night between 9.00 pm and 11.00 pm, giving the best Reggae oldies and brand new releases from all over the World, supported musically since the beginning by such labels like Jet Star (UK), Ariwa Sounds (UK), Blood & Fire (UK), Pressure Sounds (UK), VP Recs (USA), RAS Recs (USA), Heartbeat Recs (USA), etc. In November’s 1999 the first Reggae webpage from Portugal has born, getting a lot of great reviews all over Portugal (on newspapers, etc) and internationally from a lot of labels and artists / bands themselves. In consequence of the great reactions regarding the webpage and Radio Show, that were already getting a larger audience all over Portugal, a lot of promoters have started asking us to put Live some of our work as a DJ. In the year 2000, already on the new millennium, Reggae Portugal Soundsystem have born, playing regularly on small venues, playing old and new tunes sent to us from all over the world. In December’s 2000, a promoter from Porto (north of Portugal) have asked us to play on two festivals, which we did having as a guest our friend Jimmy Riley, veteran Jamaican Reggae Artist straight from Kingston - Jamaica.Since then we been playing in a lot Reggae parties all over Portugal, to the North to the South of Portugal giving the best vibes to the Portuguese Reggae Massive, playing oldies, new releases and specials from Portuguese / Jamaican and UK artists.Anyone interested in book Reggae Portugal Soundsystem can contact us through the e-mail [email protected] or [email protected]
