Biografie
In early 2004, Mr Rough Apache, MC Nes One and selector Big Lion decided to start their own soundsystem. Inspired by many artists, sounds, and the reggae soundsystem movement, they initiated Apache Sound and promised to remain loyal to the red, gold and green sounds. The name 'Apache Sound' was coined by Nes One in the 90's.
Apache Sound has specialized in presenting the diversity of styles within reggae music. Roots reggae, ragga, rub-a-dub, vintage, ska and dancehall tunes are mixed together according to the tradition of the Jamaican style sound. This all happens in a soundsystem setting: a Disc Jockey accompanied by a Microphone Chanter.
Over the years Apache Sound has performed with many celebrity reggae artists, as support act for artists such as Alpha Blondy, Gentleman, Julian Marley, Israel Vibration, Black Uhuru, Toots & the Maytals, Don Carlos, Michael Rose, The Wailers, Junior Kelly, Jah Mason, Dillinger, Sizzla, Eek A Mouse, Buju Banton, Beenie Man and many others...
Besides that, Apache Sound hosts The Official Dutch Open Reggae 45 Clash, a lively musical battle between international reggae soundsystems.
Towards the end of 2007 Apache Sound decided to give a few youngsters the opportunity to develop their talents. Selector Junior Don was the first DJ to be added to the team. After that, in 2008 MC Ras Ray was presented as supporting roots singer. DJ Sista Lisa joined the team in 2009. General FLG is Apache Sound's newest member. Big Lion left Apache Sound in the spring of 2010. His last show was with Lutan Fyah in Scheveningen. Nes One is taking it easy, while the younger generation is carrying the music on and keeping the fire burning.
