Ras Abubakar founded in 1996 the « Zion Gate Hi-Fi» in Nantes in a spirit of up keeping the Roots and Culture Sound System tradition around its basic symbol: Word, sound and power. With their own equipment and boxes, they play various type of Roots music going from Studio 1 originals to Classic & Rare Reggae cuts also including Rub-a-Dub, Early Digital and a lot of Rockers & early 80’s Steppers… Orthodox Roots Music! Nowadays, the crew is based around Ras Abubakar with Nassadjah & Prince on mic, Mark Skeete (Mostec pre-amp builder, a very skilled technician) operating the sound and I Youth Tubby taking care of special effects while Emmanuel is in charge of the logistic.
