After a short break, Reggae Roast returns to The CAMP Basement for another late-night roots gathering, welcoming very special guests; the legendary Trojan Records Sound System. The last 6 months have seen packed out dances, with a host of the UKs best Reggae talent playing pounding riddims and conscious lyrics through the 20k city, arts & music project sound system.

Foundation Reggae, old and new is the trade of the mighty Trojan Sound System. Formed in 2004 of London sound system legends like selector Earl Gateshead and Daddy Ad and vocalists Superfour plus Chucky Banton, they represent the label in England and throughout the world.

Earl Gateshead began deejaying in Brixton in 1979 and has received eorldwide recognition for his 20 year residencies at The Dive Bar, Blue Note and Plastic People. Gateshead worked as a selector and MC with Cutty Ranks, Big Youth, Dr. Alimantado or Dennis Alcapone. The Sound System's vocalists Superfour and Chucky Banton have twenty years of experience as members of the great south London sound systems: Taurus, Sir Coxsone and Saxon. Legendary recording artists including Lee Perry, Tippa Irie, Dillinger, Horace Andy and Gregory Isaacs have all worked with the Trojan Sound System, making them on of the most revered crews in the UK.  We are very much looking forward to a killer 2-hour set from the full Trojan crew, including Mr Yeah Yeah! Earl Gateshead, Daddy Ad, Superfour & Chucky Banton.

Also playing on the night will be founders of Reggae Roast Moodie & Exel and resident selector; Dub Hunter. This months session will be hosted by the one and only; MC Ishu. Expect to hear the freshest selection of classic Revival, Dub, Steppers & Dubstep as well as forthcoming dubplates from the Reggae Roast Records imprint.

This is set to be another lively dance, showcasing the best London has to offer in Reggae and Dub. Reggae Roast's monthly residency continues to promote the strength of real roots music and provides for the demand for a conscious club night. As always this event is only £5 before 11pm and capacity is limited to 250 so arrive early for guaranteed entry.
