Headline ragga and jungle night with The Ragga Twins, the Hackney MC duo of Deman Rockers and Flinty Badman, at Arena MK.
The Ragga Twins play Arena MK on Saturday 7 November, a headline show that brings their particular brand of ragga and jungle MCing to Milton Keynes. For those who know them, they're the English duo from Hackney, fronted by Deman Rockers and Flinty Badman — real names David and Trevor Destouche. They're veterans of the London UNITY sound system, and that's where they started.
They're regarded as pioneers of the scene, and they built their following on the dancefloors of London's sound system culture long before their sound spread far beyond Hackney. It's a background that tells you exactly what they do: they're MCs, the voices on top of the track, rather than a band in the traditional sense. The ragga and jungle they're known for grew out of those sound system nights, and that's the energy they bring to a live show.
This date is a headline show, so they're the main draw of the night. The venue is Arena MK, on Stadium Way West, MK1 1ST, which puts them right in the heart of the city. If you've never seen them live, it's a good place to start — a headline set gives them the whole night to run with, rather than a short slot on a shared bill.
