Born of the meeting between Izayas and Arni, a selector who was already known with his Weedstock parties in Payerne since 1999, Heartical Inity based itself in 2002 during the third edition of Weedstock.

Right after that event, Arni and Izayas decided to organize a reggae night with the Ambassador of the Ras reggae scene in Switzerland, the man called Asher selector from Geneva with his Positive Airline sound. The official first one of Heartical Inity took place at the Silverclub in Payerne in June 2002 and then these ones knew various appearences in the nightlife scene of the countryside area.

Afterward, both selectors decided to complete the sound with two new members; Hunta and Little Yakin.

Henceforth armed with these four selectors, Heartical Inity started to perform with Swiss reggae sounds like King Size, Messenger High and Livity Sound ...

From there, Heartical Inity is no longer just a sound system, but became a Real Family following the same ideal compound of pacifist revolutionary ambitions with as watchword: Equal Rights and Justice for One and All.

Since 2012 Heartical Inity members have been starting to build their own lineage and raise their children. From that time Arni Ranks is still pushing the sound by different international venues and proposes a music directory going of the Reggae roots in the Ragga dancehall to Reggaeton Afrobeats and Hip hop.

In 2018 Papi Ninjah selector joined the sound by promoting and selecting particularly Afrobeats.

Conquering Lion Records is an independent record label founded in 2013 by Christopher "Chris Lion" Mattis, a music enthusiast with a passion for spreading positive messages through music. The label's roots, however, can be traced back to the iconic Conquering Lion Sound System, which was born in July 1989 in the hills of Manchester, Jamaica. The sound system was created to promote consciousness in music at a time when dancehall began to dominate the musical scene in Jamaica, highlighting profanity and dehumanizing individuals in society.
 
Owned by Ainsley "Dobaman" Mattis, Conquering Lion Sound became a vehicle of expression for youths seeking a more conscious musical experience. Chris Lion would expound on his knowledge and love for the sound system culture, inspiring the idea to create a recording label. And so, Conquering Lion Records was born. Since its inception, the label has been on a mission to inspire positive change through music with a focus on reggae and roots music deeply rooted in the principles of Ras Tafari.
 
Conquering Lion Records has worked with some of the most respected artists in the genre, including Capleton, Lutan Fyah, Daweh Congo, Mark Wonder, Dahvid Slur,T'Jean, Jelliss, Iba Mahr and Chezidek. However, the label's most notable collaboration is with the Jamaican roots reggae singer and chanter, Hempress Sativa. Together, they have released two full-length albums, "UnconqueRebel" and "Scientist Meets Hempress Sativa in Dub," both of which received critical acclaim worldwide and were also released on 12" vinyls. Their most recent work is the sophomore album "Charka" by Hempress Sativa.
 
As the manager for Hempress, Chris Lion has traveled extensively with her, performing on major music festivals and events across Europe, the USA, and South America. Through their music, they have inspired audiences to think critically and take positive actions towards creating a better world.
 
At its core, Conquering Lion Records is deeply committed to the liberation of the mind, rooted in the critical order of Ras Tafari. The label's ultimate goal is to use the power of music to inspire, create positive change, and promote messages of love, unity, and justice for generations to come.
