Youngstar and Spooky both roll with some of Grime's most powerful tunes in their bags. They're also among the best in ability, adding up to a hype that's hard to beat in any genre.
Both are innovators, with a sound distinctive enough to identify their productions within the first bar. Youngstar's importance to Grime rivals that of any MC. From 2001 onwards, his '8-bar' tunes were the first to sound like something new in their own right. The impact of "Pulse X", "Bongo" and "Formula" is still shocking, sounding as fresh as today as when they were made.
If Youngstar created the Grime instrumental as we know it, then Spooky is defining a new wave. He's one of a handful of producers pushing the genre forward: 'Spartan' proved popular enough to redefine expectations of what a Grime beat can do. Meanwhile, his originality's confirmed by experiments such as 'Over Capacity' and his radical refixes of classics.
Youngstar and Spooky will be joined by Wifey residents Ralph LTF and Robn. Mr. Beatnick completes the bill, one of our favourite DJs and a producer currently carving out his own niche within House music.
The amazing MC Shantie (who you can regularly hear livening up Marcus Nasty's Rinse FM shows) will be hosting.
