Album bought at Aba-Shanti-I sound system at 2003 Notting
Hill carnival.
Dedicated to gpf`...Rest In Peace Brother.
As mentioned in the 'WHO'S WHO' page, Aba used to deejay
'Jah Tubby's' sound system and at
that time he was known as 'Jasmine Joe'.
Those of you that were around the sound system scene in the
eighties will remember the slightly
extrovert mic man that 'Jah Tubby's' had;that was Aba.
When Joe embraced the Rastafarian faith he adopted a new and
more positive attitude and with his
rediscovered faith a new name.
That name was and is 'Aba Shanti-I',pronounced ABA
SHANTI-EYE not ONE.
So you see the name 'Aba Shanti-I' is not just the name of
the sound system, it is the name of the
person that is playing the sound.
Over the last 10 years Aba has been playing his sound, and
the music created by his brother
Blood Shanti on that sound,in small and large halls
throughout this country and in the process has
developed a following covering the widest spectrum of Jah's
humanity.
Black/ White/ Asian /Young /The Not So Young /Rastafarians
/Bald head /Dread.All races.
All creeds.All genders.
We don't segregate,we integrate.
They come because an 'Aba Shanti-I ' session is synonymous
with a vibe,a feeling.
No one at an Aba session is made to feel strange.It is not
about what you look like,it's about who
you are and what is in your heart!
People come to discard their worries and to lose themselves
in the music and by doing so cast off
the mental shackles from their mind and the yolk from around
their shoulders,find themselves,be at
peace and be free.
The vibe that Aba generates has brought him to the attention
of the media on a worldwide basis and
he has been the subject of numerous articles in domestic and
foreign magazines.
In the last 3 years we (Aba Shanti-I & Falasha recordings)
have been the subject of 3 television
programmes.
1 German 'Deep in Dub',1 French 'Aba at Carnival' and 1
domestic 'Urban Rites' Big Issue Film
Unit Series.
This has resulted in 'The Aba Shanti-I' sound system and
'The Shanti-ites' live band being invited to
tour Europe on a number of occasions to bring the vibe to a
larger audience.
Everywhere we have played we have been greeted by
enthusiastic patrons who have been so happy
to be 'experiencing the fullness' of 'Aba Shanti-I' and
'The Shanti-Ites' live and direct and in their
own backyard.
