http://www.southrakkascrew.com - ELECTRO DANCEHALL
South Rakkas Crew (SRC) was founded by producer Dennis ’Dow Jones’ Shaw in late 2002. After managing Riprock n Alex G Entertainment, Orlando’s premier ’Pop’ production house, Dow Jones teamed up with Alex G creating what is proving to be one of the hottest Dancehall music production teams today.
SRC gave the world Riddims like: Clappas, Red Alert, Bionic Ras, Chinkuzi, etc. They have produced Dancehall music’s biggest artists including Beenie Man, Elephant Man, Bounty Killer, Capleton, Lady Saw, Mr. Vegas, Ce’Cile, Mr. Easy, Sizzla, T.O.K., and the list goes on. They have become known as Dancehall’s most innovative producers, bringing a fresh new sound which the top European DJ’s have titled Electro-Dancehall. Dow Jones has another alias, “King of the cut,” given to him by some of Jamaica’s biggest producers, for South Rakka’s ability to ’chop up’, and rearrange songs creating new and exciting mixes.
" Their ’sound’ has earned them high accolades in the remix world as well, and from a very eclectic list of artists, including: Bob Marley, Duran Duran, DJ Shadow, Lily Allen, Beck, T.O.K, Mr. Vegas, Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, Bounty Killer, T-Pain, R. Kelly, Twista, Good Charlotte, Shakira, Alicia Keys, and Chris Brown.
So what’s next for SRC? Dow Jones explains, “We are a very dynamic production house; constantly evolving. Something we have always wanted to do but have never had the opportunity was touring. We started in the summer of 2007; immediately spinning in some of the planets hottest clubs like Fabric in London (UK), and Studio B in Brooklyn NY. We have toured in Canada, Sweden and coming up in the next few months we will tour the US, Scotland, UK, Sweden, Australia, and South America. We will see you soon and bring the sound known as ELECTRO DANCEHALL!
