Wally (Intensified sound system)
For over 17 years Wally has been playing a unique blend of original Jamaican Ska, Rocksteady & Reggae riddems from the early 60's to mid 70's in and around Sydney.
He has been a collector of the young Jamaican groove since his teenage years. Growing up in the Sydney Ska scene of the 80's where 2 tone bands such as the Specials and the British beat were making their mark on the British music market, Wally's first memory of dj-ing was a slot at the Marlborouugh Hotel Newtown at the tendor age of 17, then later for Australian bands such as The Late Notes & The Allsorts with the Swing easy dj's .Sub cultures such as the Rude boys, Mods & Skinheads came to be very popular amongst the youth of the day and it was in the Rude boy scene where wally found his passion for the early Jamaican sounds
Although most grew out of the look, ie the short hair, Harrington jackets & Ben Sherman check shirts, Wally and a couple of others never did. From this Sydney Ska scene the now Intensified guys met.
Intensified! was a radio program on Radio Skid Row 88.9 fm, where Wally, Rudy & Max would come once a week and lay down some real cool Ska, Rocksteady & Reggae sounds from the golden age of Jamaican music, the show had a run of about 13 years. From this Wally built the Intensified sound system, put on numerous gigs and played all round Sydney.
Gigs wally has put on or has played at over the years are too many to list here, these include The Sydney Ska festival (March 1990), 3 years with Teddy V's Power Cuts at the Agincourt Hotel, The very popular Dub Cricket, 45 rpm & now teaming up with the guys from Vintage Records at The Annandale Hotel just to name a few. He describes his style of dj-ing as original Jamaican grooves with not all ways so original samples over top to spice things up.
“Don't let the wants of the one, out weigh the fun of the many”
(bring music back to Sydney pubs. Go to the gig, don't complain about it)
Get the INTENSIFIED SOUNDSYSTEM at your next party.... Watch this space for up and comming gigs and shows....
Many new shows to come in the warmer months...
