Junkyard Production’s sound is a mix of crispy lo-fi dub, jazzy vocals and Jamaican style mc’ing. The band is based in Aarhus and Aalborg in the north of Denmark. They played their first gig in February 2002, and have been playing live on a regular basis since then. Meanwhile Junkyard Productions have been perfecting their style and songwriting in the studio. The main influence is ol’skool Jamaican dub as well as the modern dub sound from Berlin. In October 2004 the track ”Sister Let Him Go” was recorded for the Radio Recordings II compilation album, and in February 2005 they played at the Radio Recordings II release party live on Danish national radio. “Sister Let Him Go” was released in October 2005 on Murena Records as a 12”. The track had massive airplay on DR P3 (Danish national radio) and on French Radio Nova, and has already been licensed for various compilations. In the fall of 2005 Junkyard Productions joined the Varano Music Tour and played several major Danish venues.

Junkyard Productions has just finished their debut-album, which will be released September 18th 2006. When working in the studio, Junkyard Productions usually make complete vocal tracks, which then are remixed as dub tracks. This way of working is closely related to the way dub tracks were made when the style emerged in Jamaica. The vocal versions work well in a live context.

Founder of Junkyard Productions is Rasmus Allin. He’s been working with electronic music since 1995, with the Danish band Dub Wise. He played guitar on the Örtz album ”Another Eden”, from witch the hit-single ”We Don’t Talk” was taken. He’s also DJ’ing as a member of ”The Dub Collective”.
