The Dynamics

Band,
Reggae and Rock

A dynamic instrumental group formed in Johannesburg in 1983, fusing elements of ska, reggae, mbaqanga and township jazz, it was this line-up that recorded (at Downtown Studios) and released its seven-track debut album, "It's The Dynamics", on cassette tape. The following year, they recorded (at Hugh Masekela's mobile studio in Botswana) and released a five-track mini-album on 12-inch vinyl called "Switch It On and Wind It Up". After reforming in Cape Town a decade later, their third album, "Organic", was recorded in 1996 at The Nuthouse, an independent Capetonian studio. 500 self-financed CD albums were mastered and manufactured in Taiwan and distributed by the band in 1996. The band's core members are: Harvey Roberts: tenor saxophone, vocals Jimmy Florence: keyboards, bass, trombone Winston Nyaunda: alto saxophone Steve Howells: drums
