KING JAM PROFILE
 
Born in Osaka, Japan, King Jam is an international sound system showcasing the talent of members Pikkal,
Steel-T, Miki Rooney and Haji. Pikkal founded King Jam in 1998 and played in Osaka clubs until he
brought his ambition to New York in 2000. Soon after Pikkal’ s arrival in New York he met Steel-T. Those
two linked up with Skerrit from Bronx-based Ghetto Life crew just browsing in an electronics shop one
day.
 
Skerrit invited the young Japanese sound to play alongside Ghetto Life at a dance in the Bronx. After its
first performance King Jam got the Bronx stamp of approval. The two sounds and other Bronx sounds have
come together to nice up that dancehall ever since. In 2004, King Jam grew when Miki Rooney and Haji
joined the crew. In 2006, KJ split the team up to cover both sides of the Pacific, one team in Japan and one
in the U.S.
 
Massive B, King Addies, Afrique, Tek-9, Young Hawk, Blunt Posse, Bass Odyssey, Stone
Love, Fire Links, Black Kat, Metro Media, Body Guard, Super Sonic, Sentinel, and Mighty Crown are
just some of the all-star sounds that King Jam has joined forces with in the past 11 years. From its base in
New York, King Jam has toured up and down the U.S (including, Atlanta, Boston, Connecticut, Miami,
New Jersey, North Carolina, Orlando, Washington D.C.), the Caribbean (Bahamas, Antigua, Jamaica, St.
Thomas and Bermuda), and Europe (Germany, London, and Switzerland).
 
King Jam entered the international sound clash arena in 2009, taking its first title at its first clash in Brooklyn, NY. King Jam took home a trophy from 3 out of its 4 subsequent clashes in Brooklyn & the Bronx.
 
King Jam’ s goal now is simple: international recognition as a Japan-born sound with world-class clash and
juggling skills. These are the hardest working Japanese men in the biz, and their motivation is true love for
reggae music.
 
BLESS & POWERS TO ALL REGGAE LOVERS ACROSS THE WORLD!!

Melting Pott was founded in april 2008 by a small group of friends who were studying in Duisburg (Germany) and loved Reggae & Dancehall Music from visiting dances since the late the 90s.

The crew instantly started hosting dancehall events in Duisburg and inviting regional sounds from the Ruhrgebiet Area and beyond. Simultaneously Melting Pott was juggling on other dances in and around North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) and started to establish one's reputation fast. 

After a while, Melting Pott, which were constituted from Dancehall Washington (MC), Timac (Selector), Flo (Selector) and Lazy B. during that early period, had played alongside Germanys biggest Soundsystems in some of the hottest national Clubs. 

Through the years, the crew started to generate a larger audience by touring all over Germany and booking international top acts like Gentleman, Silly Walks, Pow Pow, Soundquake, Herbalize-It and many more. 

In 2015, Puerto Rigo (MC), joined the team in order to elaborate the Sound’s performances. 

Melting Pott plays a muti-variant authentic caribbean style and covers all kind of jamaican Music as well as adjacent genres like Hip-Hop Music, Afrobeats and Soca. With their regular dance called „Funky Kingston“ in Duisburg, the crew established one of the most frequented events regarding caribbean music in whole NRW.
