Nordic Black Theatre/Family Reggae Disco presenterer Mungos Hi Fi på langkaia, Bjørvika!
Inn på båten har vi ansiktsmaling, sjonglering, mat og drikke og alle de vanlige Family Reggae Disco favoritter!
Mungo’s Hi Fi are one of the UK’s finest reggae sound systems, and certainly number one in Scotland! a world-class independent dub reggae and dubstep production unit, and record label owners.
Since humble beginnings way back in the distant days of 2000, Mungo’s Hi-Fi have grown to become the UK’s No1 reggae sound system. They play with the traditional roots of danchall, dub and reggae bringing them bang up to date in their own imitable style. The Hi-Fi have played over 1500 shows to date taking their, sights and subs all over Europe, imprinting dance floors wherever they land.
Famous not only for impeccable selector talents and studio accomplishments, Mungo’s Hi-Fi have built their own sound system, putting all others to shame. Their crystal clear top and mid ranges compliment the pure powers of bass with ease. It’s so good that the likes of Skream, Vex’d and Digital Mystiks straight up refuse to use anything else when they stop into Glasgow.
A bonafide Scottish institution, Mungos’ weekly ‘Dub N Grub’ nights and their monthly residency at the Glasgow School of Art have established them as some of the most unique and universally popular events in the country. These infamous club sessions and insatiable studio endeavours have seen them host and toast esteemed collaborators such as Jah Shaka, Sister Nancy, Ranking Joe, Tippa Irie, Top Cat and Warrior Queen. With a reputation and profile soaring, they continue to release some of the finest modern roots music around on very own Scotch Bonnet label. So far they have released 12 EPs on Scotch Bonnet, each one selling out faster than the last with anticipation for the next release reaching a fever pitch every time. Their L.P ‘Sound System Champion’s has earned Mungo’s respect and plays from Mary-Anne Hobbs, Rob Da Bank, Rodigan, and of course Jah Shaka. ‘Heavyweight’ will chronicle their forthcoming venture into the dubstep sound on their new Scrub-A-Dub imprint, which will continue to drive their sound forward, referencing the past yet always sounding fresh.
