mashup series, Warrior Remix, providing quality Hip-Hop/Dancehall remixes for the
masses at home and abroad. Jah Warrior Shelter Hi-Fi needs no introduction and
have established themselves as one of California's leading sounds, winning 9 Sound Clashes in a row. Irie Dole is a well established and recognized personality in the California Reggae scene who has been exposed to the music since well before birth, Bob Marley was playing in the car on the way to the hospital when he was being born and Jimmy Cliff was a regular on the home record player. But it
wasn’t until high school when he started digging through his parent’s old collection did he become interested in the DJ life. It was then he first linked up with DJ I-Vier, with whom he started making mixtapes and buying fresh vinyl.
Irie Dole has come a long way since the days of using “DJ Shack” equipment and photocopied tape covers. Dubbed “The Bay Area Remix King,” he has been DJing all around California since 1996 and is notorious for rocking parties with his unique style of mixing. His music selection spans from early roots reggae to today’s hottest dancehall, and even dipping into some hip-hop and r&b. He is also
one fourth of JAH WARRIOR SHELTER HI-FI, a popular DJ crew that has won multiple competitions and is a staple in the Nor-Cal reggae arena. With a party almost every night, a weekly radio show, sought after DJ mixes, flyer designing and more recently, event organizing and promotion, Irie Dole keeps very busy and on the favorite list of many reggae fans. You can find him at parties like THE RIGHT TIME, every 3rd Saturday at Pier 23; BLESS UP, Tuesday nights at Milk Bar; and MIGHTY IRIE every 2nd and 4th Friday at Luka's Taproom. You may even find Irie Dole running tracks for performers from California and abroad, as he has become the preferred show DJ and MC for concerts up and down the West coast.
Irie Dole, a native San Franciscan, has created a place for showcasing talent
from “the Bay Area and beyond” at a night called HOME GROWN REGGAE every
first Saturday night at Pier 23. Be sure to tune in to KPOO (89.5fm in SF / www.KPOO.com) every Wednesday noon-3 for REBEL MUSIC, Irie Dole’s radio show, where he plays the best reggae music from all eras and highlights current
