Black Rhino Residency #25: Iration Steppas

Black Rhino is thrilled to announce Iration Steppas, the Vanguard of Dub, headlining its #25 residency at Control Club on March 14. As usual, the session is amplified by Riddim Bandits Sound System.

Iration Steppas Sound System is the foundation of the West Yorkshire underground bass music scene. Mark Iration and Dennis Rootikal met in the early 1990’s when sound system culture was changing, and the music was evolving. This partnership led to the development of the most progressive style of reggae and dub, which has inspired a generation of new sound systems and dub producers, including O.B.F., King Alpha, Dubkasm, and many more. It also left a mark on other genres, with many other big names taking influence from the frontman Mark Iration.

For the past 30 years, Iration Steppas have pushed boundaries in sound system technology, continually improving to stay at the top of their game, and have collected what is possibly the widest selection of dub plates and specials of any sound system. Mark (Iration Steppas) is an entertainer and provides an experience you will not find anywhere else, and you will not want to miss.

Iration Steppas have built a proud discography with albums such as Original Dub D.A.T., Dubs from the High Regionz, and Dub Arena – as well as many singles, and all are still bought in heavy numbers around the world.
