Founded by selectors/DJs SuperPEC, Crisis Don, and Kahlil Wonda, Highlanda Sound System debuted on the Atlanta nightclub scene in early 1999 after being discovered by Presise Halley, CEO of the Atlanta based entertainment company, Presise.biz (formerly Extreme Media and Waxfactor).
Highlanda’s versatility, technical skills, and interactive style quickly gained the attention of their audiences, local promoters, and club owners. During its first two years, the Sound exploded in terms of popularity by leaving its rapidly growing fan base completely satisfied and thoroughly entertained. By 2001 Highlanda Sound proudly donned the title of Atlanta’s premier mainstream choice for Dancehall / Reggae Disc-jockeys. That same year Highlanda’s web presence, now www.highlanda.net, won the Atlanta Caribbean Award for Best Website.
Over the next few years Highlanda made featured appearances in over 150 venues in its home state of Georgia. During this time period Highlanda also played all over the USA, and internationally with appearances in the Caribbean, and as far as Japan. The Sound has performed alongside some of the biggest DJs and artists in the music business: Renaissance, Stone Love, Massive B, David Rodigan, DJ Enuff, DJ Drama, Frank Ski, Beenie Man, Junior Reid, T.O.K, Tanto Metro and Devonte, Sean Paul, and many more.
After a three-year hiatus Highlanda made a triumphant return to the Atlanta dancehall scene with a renewed energy in 2009 earning a nomination for Top Reggae DJ by DaReggaeScene.com.
Now as hosts of the Dancehall Now and Reggae Vault Classics shows, streaming live on www.daflavaradio.com on Tuesdays 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. and Wednesdays 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. (EST), Highlanda continues to move steadily towards radio personality stardom while on a stated mission to entertain and promote reggae worldwide.
