A house-hold name in the ‘sound system’ industry in Guyana, Serettee McAllister, more popularly known as ‘Selector Face’ announced today that, as of November 1, he will be returning to the ‘Mighty Stereo Sonic’ – one Guyana’s, and probably the Caribbean ‘wickedest’ sounds.
“I’ve been on the outside watching on for a number of years and I think I can be more valuable to my fans and the industry on the sound system that moulded me into the person I am and to me it makes for a more stable career in the dancehall arena,” Selector Face told ‘The Buzz’ in interview.
Born Serettee McAllister on February 19, 1979, Selector Face is the third of six siblings, and started to play music when he was just 15 years old.
“I worked with Artical Professional Sound from 1995 to 1999, when I was recruited by stereo sonic sound which I played for 11 years. During that time I toured several Caribbean countries,” said the ‘DJ’ with a unique voice.
In September of 2010, due to s fallout, Selector Face parted ways with the Mighty Stereo Sonic sound
And went on to work with another popular and polarizing sound system, Slingerz family, where he toured the UK, the US and some other Caribbean islands.
After few years with the Vergenoegen-based Slingerz Family Sound, Selector Face started his own brand as a DJ, which saw him gaining strides in Canada as well spreading his wings in the UK moving to Ireland and several other countries in Europe.
However, in 2019 after several rounds of talks with the management of the Mighty Stereo Sonic sound system, Selector Face is about to make his return as the prodigal son!
With an aim of continuing where he left off as a dominant figure on the sound system, Selector Face is already sounding the alarm to other DJs, that play time is over and he’s coming back to take over.
