RBMA Culture Clash is Back -- October 14th!














Channel One, Metalheadz, Skream and Benga limber up for RBMA’s latest Culture Clash

Red Bull Music Academy presents the latest in its series of Culture Clash events on Thursday 14 October.

The clash takes place at The Roundhouse in London, a suitably epic and august venue for an evening of gladiatorial combat that will see the likes of Goldie, Skream, Andy C, Benga and Joker all vying for soundboy supremacy.

To be precise, there are four contending soundsystems taking part. First up is reigning Culture Clash champion Goldie and his seasoned Metalheadz crew. The man with the smile that could crush steel is joined by Andy C, Shy FX, Storm and MC GQ, and it’d take a brave gambler indeed to bet against this lot overpowering the opposition yet again.

The even more experienced Channel One Soundsystem will be appearing in full effect, with Mikey Dread and Ras Kayleb leading the charge. Carnival fixtures since time immemorial, Channel One’s riddims might be slower than those of their junglist counterparts, but they’re no less heavy. They’ll be on hand to remind us that true roots reggae packs a low-end punch like no other.

Of course not all combatants are such veterans: the younger generation is represented by Skream and Benga, who it’s safe to say will be completely unphased by the reputations of their elders. The Croydon dubsteppers have smashed party after party over the past half-decade with their unashamedly full-frontal sound, and for this special night they’ll be joined by Joker, MC Nomad and their Magnetic Man compadre Artwork. Metalheadz watch out.

Last but by no means least is the venerable Soul Jazz Soundsystem, emissaries from the record label of the same name, and master selectors of gritty funk, rocksteady, dancehall, dubstep and beyond. They might seem like the underdogs, but with good taste and DJ chops to spare, they might just pull it off…

The night runs 7pm-3am, and it’s going to be very loud indeed. Find more information and tickets here.

Happy Carnival London..

80's Playback..

Evelyn Champagne King - Love Come Down..



1982.. I was 9 but my Dad had this on rotation. I was lucky enough to have the 45 passed down to me. This was a magical time when it was very cool to be into Funk.
I remember Aretha Franklins 'Jump to It' would be played alot around this same time. MUSIC!

Another great.. Out to all those Torontonians who grew up listening to 94 WBLK out of Buffalo. Those were the days before they blocked the signal! PAUSE TAPES BABY.

Joyce Sims - All in All



Stumbled onto this.. Great memories. Very big record with that heavy electro influence. Out to my old east scarborough crew. Big up Trevor Welshman wherever your at.. Learned alot from you about the art of dj'ing. The 12 inch for this had some great dubs as well.

Sheila E: The Beat Goes On..



I had a ridiculous crush on Sheila E. in the 80's. Purple Rain baby.


The Jets..



Guilty pleasure. This goes hand in hand with my love for New Edition (Candy Girl) period.

Jermaine Stewart - Word is Out..



I was 11 when this 12 inch came out. I wore a hole in it. The dub version was ridiculous as well. The beat was heavy and did'nt sound like anything out at the time. BIG CHOON.. Very disappointed when I saw the video haha ..

Cameo Favourites..





Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam..



On that 80's vibe.. Yes.. I had a massive thing for Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam. haha

I loved this album like cook food. Big up Full Force!



Electro was starting to blowup at this point.

Nu Shooz - I Can't Wait..



Another ridiculously catchy intro and b line.. This was a massive record when it came out.

Tom Tom Club - Genius of Love...



I was fascinated by this record when it came out. The intro would catch you and it did'nt sound like anything else at the time. The dub version on the flip of the 12 was RIDICULOUS. Track it down if you get a chance.. Timeless.
