On-U Sound is an influential record label and collective helmed by the venerable producer and sound engineer Adrian Sherwood. Established in the early 1980s in the United Kingdom, On-U Sound has been at the forefront of the fusion between reggae and post-punk music, carving out a distinct sound that encompasses elements of dub, industrial, and dance music. The collective's work is characterized by heavy bass lines, experimental soundscapes, and a political edge that reflects the tumult of the times they emerged in.

The label has been home to a diverse roster of artists and has seen numerous collaborations that cross genres and borders. Their most recent projects, such as "I Woke Up With An Open Heart (On-U Sound Remixes)" and "Outside The Echo Chamber," showcase the label's enduring commitment to pushing the boundaries of sound and style. With Sherwood at the production helm, On-U Sound continues to release socially conscious and sonically adventurous projects, including the militant rhythms of "Divide and Rule" and the electronic pulse of "Vitals." The collective's ability to stay relevant and innovate within the evolving music landscape while maintaining their foundational roots is a testament to their creative vision and the enduring appeal of the On-U Sound aesthetic.
