Sound Systems
An integral part of any modern Carnival are the sound systems with statistics from the Notting Hill Carnival claiming that 60% of spectators attend just to listen to the sound systems. The static sound system has its origins in the late 1940's in Jamaica where DJs would play in dance halls and yards. Now sound systems attract some of the top DJs as well as being an expressive outlet for local DJs and MCs.
