by straying slightly from the root.

This song is about the jamaican sound systems. DJ's would grab a generator, turntable and some mean speakers to have their own personal dancehall. The famous Studio One was started by a Sound System DJ. Music is always there for us "sound system gonna bring me back up one thing that I can depend on" And music is his way to express himself " contained in my music somehow more than just sound, this inspiration coming and twisting things around"
