Known for their jumping up-beat tunes, driven by founder guitarist and vocalist Neol Davies, The Selecter have enjoyed prolonged fame thanks mainly to the continuing interest in Ska music from generation to generation, and such classics in their catalogue as ‘On My Radio’ and ‘Too Much Pressure’. Join us in a celebration of this musical institution in their biggest London show in years, in which The Selecter will be playing classics as well as some [b]EXCLUSIVE [/b]previews of new material.

The current formation combines musicians from both Cuba and Jamaica, as well as Japan, Monserrat and London, including 3 members of Top Cats. Since then Ska Cubano have toured the world, played at festivals including WOMAD and Glastonbury, and their third album, ‘Mambo Ska’ released earlier this year, has received international acclaim, described as “A blast – a raucous, riotous, irresistible blast…high octane party and festival music of the first order” and has led to them repeatedly selling out the Jazz Cafe.

TODDLA T ft. MC Serocee :: MALA (DMZ) :: KING MIDAS SOUND :: RAGGA TWINS :: DEBRUIT :: VAGABONDZ DJS :: HYPONIK DJS :: Very special guest from LA tba! ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: ::::::: Soundcrash presents a very special night of heavyweight bass showcasing the past, present and future of low-end, ear-drum-battering electronic music. With a line-up that includes top exponents of Electro-Dancehall, Roots Dubstep, LA-Tronic Soul, French Wonk, and a very special set from some true Old-Skool Jungle legends, expect a full assault on your senses - and your feet. Tickets will surely fly out the door for this so don't delay and get yours now! Sheffield's Toddla T is a man much in demand. And for good reason. When he's not remixing the likes of Roots Manuva, Hot Chip, Roisin Murphy and Tricky; Toddla T has a monthly residency at Fabric and hosts his own show on BBC Radio 1. His own productions - a mixture of dubstep, electro and dancehall - ooze energy and good vibrations, and have turned dancefloors the world over into sweaty messes. Tonight he will be joined on the mic by his trusted companion Mc Serocee to bring you the Tropical Heat. As the great Roots Manuva would say... Yes, yes, and furthermore, yes! http://www.myspace.com/toddlat One half of Digital Mystikz, Mala has left an indelible print on the world's electronic music landscape. One of the original pioneers of what would come to be widely known as Dubstep, Mala champions the fusion of dark, rolling beats, with an organic Roots sensibility. Having released records on DMZ, Soul Jazz, Tectonic and Tempa, and remixed the likes of Skream and Fat Freddy's Drop, you know this man is the real deal. Dubsteppas beware!! http://www.myspace.com/malamystikz Kevin Martin aka The Bug has teamed up with Roger Robinson to create King Midas Sound, "the spiritual heir to Tricky's classic Maxinquaye with added bass and a tight percussive swing" (Boomkat). One of the most talked about dub/dubstep acts in recent moths, KMS brings forth maximum bass weight on a bespoke sound system tonight at Koko. Good thing there are no upstairs neighbours or their nerves would be wrecked! http://www.myspace.com/kingmidassound The Ragga Twins are the link between UK dancehall reggae, jungle and hip-hop. Deman Rockers and Flinty Badman began their careers as MCs for North London’s legendary Unity reggae sound system, but truly made their mark when they teamed up with Shut Up & Dance in 1990. From then on the Twins became a main staple of the rave scene that would greatly influence many of today's young producers across the UK and beyond. This is a great opportunity to catch a glimpse of that defining period of time. Watch out for dem lasers... Ragga Twins Step Out! http://www.myspace.com/raggatwins If you've been to any clubnight worth it's salt in the past couple of months, chances are you've gone nuts on the dancefloor for an afrobeat infused wobbly tune called "Nigeria What?" The man responsible for that catchy little ditty is the Parisian born Débruit, a man on a mission to sample the music from all corrners of the world, and chop it into instantly likeable slabs of wonky goodness. To make sure tonight goes off with a bang Débruit will be performing his brilliant live show for the lucky early crowd. http://www.myspace.com/dbruit Tickets available through http://www.soundcrashmusic.com
