Biography
On U Sound was formed in the early-1980s. Initially Creation Rebel, Prince Far I, Bim Sherman, London Underground and The Mothmen formed the ‘crew’ responsible for the first records. Having worked doing live shows for a long period, it was decided to change the emphasis to making records. This decision was due to the difficulty of making a success of any one group. It was logical, in order to make any money at all, to take memebers of various groups and create ‘new’ ones. This resulted in many recordings ranging from the New Age Steppers to African Head Charge, from Singer & Players to Barmy Army, Mark Stewart & Maffia, Akabu and Dr. Pablo & Dub Syndicate to name a few.
These deranged records are not exactly commercial but would be if enough people got the opportunity to hear them. Anyway, never mind. Those who have heard and continued to buy or tape On U Sound records have seldom been disappointed. Now On U Sound also bring you Pressure Sounds, an off-shoot label releasing the reggae sounds that influenced On U in the early days.
Summer of Dub will perform at The Big Chill 2009.

Please put them on a STAGE not in a marquee! Lee Perry & Adrian Sherwood would have been so much better last year that way…
