Dubcentrals Dub In a Pub with Yammi from i-Sus 2k @ The Harley, Glossop Road, Sheffield

 

Yammi was born in England, from the first generation african/caribbean. He grew up around sound systems from 1973 onwards. Itiopians was his first sound in the early seventies, playing alongside sounds like Mafia, Quaker City and Lord David. The Itiopians crew began to seperate and from this the I-SUS Soundystem was created in 1980.

 

I-SUS was a sound that dominated the North of England. Black Joy another soundystem in Sheffield who were also close relations to I-SUS joined forces to become another sound in Sheffield known as Trojan Highpower. They had the same engineer who also built amps for Sifa soundsystem. Yammi designed and built the speaker cabs but after 10 years members wanted to change from playing roots and culture, and play bashment and dance hall music which they felt was not giving out the right message, highlighting guns disrespecting life and giving respect to material things, so Yammi and Idren Godson went their own way and built back I-SUS 2k with the principles that mattered to them, they deal strictly with Roots & Culture and Dub.

Dubcentral’s Dub In a Pub with Dan Man and Instrument of Jah @ The Harley, Glossop rd, Sheffield

 

Claston Brooks, stage name Dan Man A.K.A. SUNNY VOICE is a veteran musician and singer who has covered the music scene on a local, regional national and international basis for over 20 years.

 

Born in St. Elizabeth, Jamaica, he migrated to the UK in 1967 at the tender age of 11. The first stop in the UK for the young artist was London, where he lived and attended the Slay Brook High School in Harlsden, for 4 years before moving to Huddersfield and finished schooling at Fartown High. Dan man played bongo drums for revival church in Jamaica, during his childhood and is no new comer, when it comes to music.

 

However it wasnt until 1995 that he got his first experience of working in a recording studio. Upon enquiring about an advertisement, he was given the opportunity to record two of his own tracks free of charge, in a recording studio at the Hudawi Centre in Huddersfield. One of the songs recorded during Dan Mans first studio experience, placed him in third place in a Talent Competition, held at the Deighton Centre, Huddersfield in 1995. Yorkshire Television captured the particular show on camera and a video has been made as a result. In late 90s Dan Man met Andy Black from Big Noise Productions, Yorkshire UK and recorded a number of tracks with him over a few years.

 

Iration Steppaz Sound System was the next adventure for Dan Man and this adventure has lead to the releasing of the artist's first 10-inch vinyl, entitled Too Much War (the flipside was "what's wrong" by YT). Other releases from Dan Man include "Jah Love" on Temper Records, "The Supply," a collaboration with dancehall artist Bongo Chilli on Bassrunner Productions and "Move Baby Groove," which is a collaboration with Bongo Chilli & D. Bo General. "Move Baby Groove" is featured on Bongo Chilli's debute album entitled "Real Musician."

 

Dan Man is still working with Iration Steppaz and together they have been touring Europe, performing in Countries including Italy, France, Switzerland, Poland, Hungary and Belgium. He also works closely with The Rootsman (Third eye music, Bradford, UK) and Abdul (Celtic Islam Production, Huddersfield UK).

 

Npw in 2010 Dan Man has been working in partnership with dancehall artist Bongo Chilli and helped him to launch 'Bongo Chilli records'. He works jointly with Bongo Chilli, facilitating a number of music workshops in schools and at community based projects around the UK. Dan Man is also one of the front men for Underground Roots Soundsystem.
