Jiba
Jiba have been going since 1992, when they did a squat party with Circus Lunatek, Vox Populi and Bedlam. The system did a party a week after the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 was implemented, without the party getting shit down.

CJA
When the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 was introduced, United Systems was set up as an organisation dedicated to supporting sound systems and parties. Spiral Tribe and the Mutoid Waste Company had left the country for Europe, so new free party sound systems began to do raves in London. This crews included Jiba, Oops, Virus and Vox Populi. These systems came out of the punk, squatter and traveller movements.

On the 1995 May bank holiday, police shut down a party near Woodbridge, in Suffolk. There were 3,000 revellers and alongside Jiba, sound systems included Cheeba City, Oops, Virus and Vox Populi. Systems were impounded and later returned. The police were unable to use the new powers of the Criminal Justice Act because they were exercising the laws in the day, not at night.
