- Mighty Crown Sound System comes from Yokohoma, Japan. They were inspired by the big Sound Systems in the early 90s like Kilimanjaro, Saxon and Stone Love. They have been DJing since 1991 but really started getting into the Sound System business from 1993, playing in nightclubs in Japan and New York.
- In 1993 they took their first trip to Jamaica where they went to get their first stack of dub plates and … it was nothing like they expected.
- They went back to Japan armed with their dub plates and introduced Japan to their new–found specials. Now they have made it to the big league and are no longer simply a Japanese sound, they are THE Japanese Sound System!
- They celebrating this year 20 years in business. Mighty Crown will devolve part of their celebration money to Japan’s relief efforts!
- Check out the New Era Mighty Crown Hats for the 20th Anniversary Celebration.
