Arrows HiFi A Dance Hall Foundation Sound System

Arrows HiFi A Dance Hall Foundation Sound System

Most any sound system buff and of course those into foundation sound systems have heard the name Arrows more commonly known as Arrows HiFi or Arrows The Ambassador.

This sound system got its start in the Kingston area of Jamaica it was started basically by a family Robert (really a family friend) and the brothers of Phillip & Ivan. The sound started out with the name of Arrows Disco holding small dances around their own city and town. The sound at that time was known for their hard bass and their choice for hard-core Reggae and Dub.

Throughout the mid-70's Arrows Disco at this time changed the name to Arrows HiFi and can be found playing many dances around Kingston and beyond. At that time some of the main crew was Jah Mikey, Cruthches (who is a main staple of the sound as far as DJ's goes) and also Puddy Roots who for some may not know but before he took that name he was going by Puddy Lion as a DJ. .

Coming now into the 80s Arrows is starting to grow larger as a sound system around Jamaica. Now the crew that is traveling with Arrows are Shaka Shamba, & his sparing partner Liberty, Hugo Brown & others. If you listen to many of the live session tapes that can be found at DJ14K's Tapes R Us, you can also hear other sessions with Arrows brining in DJs like Capt. Sinbad, Peter Metro, and big man himself Briggy.

Towards the late 80's and early 90's Arrows The Ambassador (as they are more known now) did start to fade out from the sound system arena but their name carries on with the many tapes and CDs that can be had. Although not really known as a clashing sound you can catch them clashing with sounds like Jaro, Black Scorpio, Volcano, Jammys and more.
