Iration Steppas are one of the top dubwise sound systems in the world. They started as a sound system in 1990, firstly just spinning dub plates, then making their own music. They have played all over the world as well as powering the legendary SUBDUB in Leeds and more recently DMZ/EXODUS in Leeds.

Some might say the Iration Steppas are far removed from the traditional sound of reggae but the same might well have been said of King Tubby and Lee Perry when they first started to push the musical boundaries! Moving forwards ever and backwards never, they continue to play a crucial part in the world of dub - the unstoppable force that is IRATION STEPPAS...

In their own words:

"It’s hard to explain… you’re gonna feel the power 'cos of heaviness in bass, you’re gonna see the uniqueness of a DJ chattin’ on a soundsystem, the sound effects itself is unique, the delivery of the sounds played to the crowd and the reaction from that and the niceness of just being in a cool, no trouble business vibe.

We like to keep it spiritual and uplifting really, because that’s what dub is about. It is an experience."
