On July 19, 2009, Subatomic Sound System performed at [[Summerstage]] in [[Central Park]], [[New York City]], along with Lee "Scratch" Perry & Dubblestandart (with a cameo from [[Ari Up]]) and [[Alpha Blondy]]. The lineup for this event drew the largest Summerstage crowd of the season, confirming organizers' expectations. Given the multicultural and cross generational audiences who turn out in Central Park, organizers had hoped this billing would draw on the connection between modern incarnations of [[dub music|dub]] based music such as dubstep and the [[Dub music|dub]] and [[roots reggae]] styles from over 30 years prior, originated by Perry in Jamaica that influenced artists like Blondy to extend that sound in [[Africa]]. Those styles then influenced groups like Dubblestandart and Subatomic Sound System in Europe and the US to meld that sound with other contemporary electronic based genres.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://cityparksfoundation.org/summerstage/|title=City Parks Foundation - SummerStage|website=Cityparksfoundation.org|accessdate=29 January 2021}}</ref>
