ENTITY · SOUND SYSTEM

Masego Soundsystem

Probable

Rotterdam roots and dub collective, selecting since 2009 and running its own handbuilt rig since 2015, taking its bearings from Jamaican and British sound system practice. It hosts sessions across the Rotterdam region and has shared its stack with King Shiloh, Jah Shaka, Dubkasm and Imperial Sound Army; its own Mixcloud carries recordings of those nights, including a 2018 session with Ras Lorenzo at Cafe Belgique in Amsterdam.
