The North Carolina Sound System Culture is a community celebrating reggae music and the DJ culture with roots in traditional Jamaican sound systems. It is a vibrant scene where people connect, show their passion, dance, buy and sell equipment.
The culture emphasizes community building and the experience of love of music, through large-scale hand-built systems. Sound system culture originated in Jamaica during the 1940s and 1950s, with individuals building their large speakers to play music on the streets. This is not just music, but an experience within North Carolina.
The DJs and sound systems are listed alongside the live artists. The North Carolina Sound System Culture group actively promotes, celebrates this culture, the collective of DJs, MCs, and Sound Technicians, and other roles to create a unique musical experience, according to the North Carolina Sound System Culture Facebook page.
