    Born into two different cultures, Nai-Jah grew up understanding the struggles and persecutions resulting from colonialism. He moved to France in 2006 where he eventually started a reggae/afro band, with the singularity of having a sousaphone as bass. Influenced from early age by traditional Igbo music and roots reggae, the band still tours Europe today. It was at Dubcamp 2016 when Nai-Jah met with the dub movement and it's desire to spread conscious and uplifting music. The meeting with Alpha Steppa paved the way for a deepened comprehension of the movement and a sincere mutual understanding and friendship. The profound songwriting of Mahakwe A.K.A Nai-Jah, seizes conscious topics like the political struggle and corruption in his home country, Nigeria and of mankind's never ending greed. Nai-Jah has one goal, to shake up body and mind. Contact: bookings@steppas.com

  • Fikir Amlak

    Singer | Songwriter | Live

    With Caribbean and Latin-American heritage, Fikir Amlak’s early years were split between the Caribbean and the USA. He came into contact with the Rastafari order at a young age and the resonance was immediate. He rapidly embraced Rastafari culture, philosophy and music which has regulated his life since. After moving to Santa Cruz, California he took part in a series of solo and collective musical works from 2002 to 2006. Growing disillusioned with the music business, he took a 7 year sabbatical from recording. During this period he lived a severely reclusive life, studying and training with Rastafari in the hills of California and Jamaica. He continued to release previously recorded music but did not record again until 2013, when various producers encouraged him to return to the music world. Since then, he has recorded extensively but only a small portion of this music has been released. The roots – reggae – dub – sound system world has embraced him, and his rise has been meteoric. Promoting a balance of mental, spiritual and physical fitness, his message has arrived on the scene like a breath of fresh air. While he remains in the public eye, look for more releases, live performances, and insight from Fikir Amlak. (Mike B, Akashic Records)

  • JahYu

    Musician | Producer | DJ

    JahYu: the Korean word for ‘freedom’, this is an artist whose music is rooted in the notion of freedom, freedom of sound, freedom of expression, freedom from mind and freedom of the soul. JahYu uses his creative freedom to connect directly with his ancestors and create music that somehow transports the listener through time and space. Oriental flute and string melodies slide effortlessly amongst powerful roots-based dubstep, creating a sound that is unique and full of flavour. This enigmatic Korean-German producer blends both sides of his heritage, the digital steppers that emerged from Europe in the 1990’s alongside the traditional oriental music of his mother’s homeland, Korea, augmented by a deeper exploration of contemporary bass music. JahYu’s productions provide us with the opportunity to discover our ancestral roots through music. Roots music is not a sound, it is a feeling and a feeling that JahYu is able to evoke with profound intensity. Contact: bookings@steppas.com

A&O are a roots dub duo that mix both analogue and digital elements, comprising Christine Woodbridge and John Sprosen, both of whom had played in reggae bands previously, Sprosen also having worked with the Roaring Lion Sound System. They began working together in the mid-1980s, splitting their time between their home towns of London and Plymouth, and issued their debut home-recorded cassette in 1988. They were picked up by Greensleeves Records, who acted as a parent company to the duo's A&O label, and also worked with Jah Shaka, for whom they supplied rhythm tracks. Although they are strongly influenced by artists such as Lee "Scratch" Perry, King Tubby and Augustus Pablo, they have developed a sound that has been described as "uniquely British". In a review of their Mystical Things album, Rick Anderson, writing for Allmusic, wrote: "This prolific London-based duo is responsible for some of the most convincing old-school reggae to come from the first world." Wikipedia "Enter a path few can follow, but many can appreciate. A studio or sound's dub-plates are like a Shaolin monk's sacred teachings. London-based Alpha & Omega take us into their world of mesmerising roots and divulge their exclusive 'specials'." Muzik "Through minimal manipulation, (Alpha and Omega) deliver the listener to a place of great sonic peace." Option magazine "The compelling presences at the hear of these airy sonic worlds have a harder edge than some of their ancestors.” The Wire "Massively thunderous bass lines, galloping drum tracks and a willingness to tastefully adorn dubs with digital flutes and various electronic sounding washes."
