History:
Supersonic was founded in the summer of 1998 in Berlin, Germany when Panza (selector) recorded the first mixed tape set. It was more a coincidence than anything else since the tapes were a huge success first locally and later on nation wide.
He started selecting on his own playing a few clubs in Berlin. Spider (MC) joined the sound in 1999 and after a brief period the two became a well known tag team travelling all over the country. The mixed tapes series was established by now and Supersonic became a household name among the cassette fraternity.
Now that the sound was travelling a lot it was even easier for the fans to put a face to the tapes they were listening all the time. In 1999 Uzzla (sound fx) joined his two friends but he first focused on the website and the international cassette business. In 2001 he started on the sound fx adding a lil spice to the sets.
Supersonic's reputation grew steadily over the years and they are rated among Germany's leading soundsystems spreading a positive and energetic vibe. In 2001 they promoted a successful leg of Sound Trooper's 1st Anniversary tour in Berlin alongside Pow Pow and Harry Toddler.
Only a few month later they won the "Kill Or Be Killed" clash against Sentinel, Wadada and Budadub in Cologne. Internationally they flattened Austria, Switzerland, France, Italy, Hungary and Tobago. In 2002 they appeared at both big festivals namely Summer Jam in Cologne and Splash in Chemnitz. In 2003 they held their 4 year anniversary bash which featured Caveman from Jamaica among others.
In July they surprised at the annual "Reggae Summer 2003" when they battled it out with Soundquake and lost only by inches. By the end of the year they invited the legendary Tony Screw and his Downbeat foundation machine for two juggling affairs in Europe. Next February will see them team up with Sentinel for the 5 year anniversary 2 gig show tour.
In 2004 they won Riddim Soundclash against Ricky Trooper, Freddy Krueger and One Love HiPowa in Munich.
By not taking part at Irish & Chins"promotional" Worldclash,
but clashing with big Sounds such as LP, Caveman, Immortal,
Heartical or One Love(again), they reached an independent Soundsystem - Level,
and are now the world famous known german champion sound from Berlin!
Supersonic is here to please the people, that is for sure. They play all kind of styles dealing with Caribbean music, from ska to roots, from lovers to dancehall and even soca. It is their aim to show the entity and depth, not only certain periods or extracts. Whenever you come to a Supersonic dance satisfaction is guaranteed.
