New Age Steppers

New Age Steppers, contracted by On-U Sound, were a collective of musicians which varied over time. The overriding sound was a heavy and chaotic dub, with an underpinning bass guitar, and substantial use of samples, often from other On-U Sound creations.

Their first release, the eponymously titled album, New Age Steppers, was the first LP to be released on On-U Sound, and as such is an important landmark for the label, and a seminal work in dub reggae. ==Personnel == Among the known personnel of the New Age Steppers were Bim Sherman, George Oban, Ari Up (of The Slits), Steve Beresford, Mark Stewart (of The Pop Group and later Mark Stewart and the Mafia), and a young Neneh Cherry, also associated at the time with Rip Rig + Panic. Bruce Smith and Keith Levene have also made contributions to the collective. Vivien Goldman, at the time a journalist with the NME, provides vocals on "Private Armies". ==Discography == ===New Age Steppers (1980) === ===Action Battlefield (1981) === ===Foundation Steppers (1982) === ===Love Forever (2012) === Various singles and compilations were also released.
