Official Remixes

It gives me so much excitement to finally share with you the debut release from my collective Hippo Sound System! As a collective of producers, musicians and vocalists we explore new fusions of world music with sound system culture. Producing intelligent and organic dance music that is enriching for both the body and soul. 

The title track "Music For Your Mind" fuses funky East African grooves with a classic drum & bass beat and features the legendary D&B MC Spyda as well as Ghanaian powerhouse K.O.G & Jamaican rapper Franz Von. 

Love Goes Where Love is a euphoric fusion of jungle music with soukous inspired guitar and is accompanied by beautiful vocal messages from both K.O.G & Fran Von. 

Into the Jungle is our tribute to the legendary Francis Bebey and is a psychedelic junglist's journey into the heart the jungle itself! We call this new sub genre... 'liquid-afro-jungle' !!! 

The full EP will be available on all platforms from 20/5/20 and you can pre-order from bandcamp now:

Max Romeo - Ska Ska Ska (Hiphoppapotamus' Going With The Flow Remix ;)

After 2 years of much collaboration and vibration DJ Hiphopapotamus & friends are super excited to present to you 2Steppin’ Up.

A compilation from the finest producers around with a vision to inject flavour into the music they love, UK Garage. Hippo & friends have taken that bass driven 2Steppin’ beat and brought the fusion it’s never known before. And boy they didn’t hold back on the global, ska, salsa and bhangra garage. 2Steppin’ up has taken garage to directions we didn’t know were possible, bringing you this compilation of 10 earth shaking UKG bombs.

As if that wasn’t enough to be proud of! All profits raised from 2Steppin’ Up will be donated to a charity that we love, Music 4 Children.
Who have been doing fantastic work bringing support and relief to some of the poorest and most underprivileged children in Nepal and the UK. From basic food and shelter to musical and creative workshops. The support and love Music 4 Children give is huge and we are so happy to be able to support them on their mission!

2Steppin' Up

Say A Little Prayer - Hiphoppapotamus & Fizzy Gillespie

It was an absolute pleasure to remix this track for the incredible band Snazzback, the beating heart of Bristol's freshly emerging jazz scene!  Switching between a Jazzy Afro-House beat and half time Hip Hop business we felt it was crying out for a fresh lyrical flow from our man Franz Von, and boy did he deliver!!!

As Franz says "Life Is A Dance" ...and we hope you come with us on this highly danceable journey!

Hippo Sound System, Penya - La Selva

Ghanaian vocalist K.O.G and producer/guitarist Tom Excell (of Nubiyan Twist) join UK-based Hippo Sound System on this afro-infused house track. Deep and dreamy synth/guitar layers encompass the ancestral rhythms and create the perfect atmosphere for K.O.G's emotive lyrics. The song's hook, in the language of the Ga tribe, means to take time over caring for one's self, to heal, and to be grounded whilst navigating the traumas of life.
"Healing" is the 3rd single from Bristol-based Hippo Sound System debut album "Origins", released April 2023

Live Set Recording at Roots Corner, Shambala 2024

In the peak of the Summer, in the midst of all the festival chaos, the mixtape I wanted to make the most was not about blends and big bad basslines! … But the soothing, luscious and relaxing tones of a range of blissful tropical and/or jazzy music I have been collecting for a while, both live and electronic.  I’ve never made a chill-out mixtape before, and its still gets groovy and builds at times, but its always a light and fluffy vibe (hence the name!) and gets brought back down to an ambient vibe quite regularly through-out.

I put a LOT of love into this 2 hours+ selection! ❤️ So use it to nurse a hangover, or just to start a beautiful day… or to relax in the garden on a sunny afternoon, soundtrack a beautiful sunset... or even set the tone for a romantic evening! ;)

Big Hippo Love! ❤️🔥

Tropical Marshmallows (Chillout Mixtape)

A selection of my absolute favourite reggae, raggae hip hop, dancehall and dubby beats that I’ve found over the last year or so!  Easing in with the with the luscious relaxing tones Hollie Cook and Akae Beka all the way to the more energetic future dancehall from Jaz Elise. It essentially would be a Rootsy reggae Mixtape Vol. 3, but with the addition of some dancehall and hiphop vibes this time that title didn’t feel correct.  Enjoy, Big Hippo Love x

Hiphoppapotamus’ Tropical Wiseguy series returns after a decade of twisting genres inside-out! The fourth instalment gives N.W.A’s “Express Yourself” a sun-drenched dancehall do-over, melts African classics over chunky beats and bass, ignites salsa into breakbeat, and sends Japanese boogaloo erupting into full-throttle drum & bass with the Hippo & Gypsyndicates's remix of the Minyo Crusaders. A decade of chaos, culture, and rhythm—refined and reloaded!

HiphoppaPODCAST Ep.21 - December 2025 - (FREE Patreon Podcast)

An absolute pleasure to remix Afro Cluster, their original track combined elements of Afro, Funk, Hiphop and Disco with lovely soulful vocals from Helena May and a gangster (but good vibes) MC flow from mr Skunkadelic.

My remix takes all these styles in but also throws in some b-boys breaks and extra jazzy percussion to make this genre-spanning banger!  This was in the pipeline being tweaked since last summer and a key part of my sets, Hope you dig it as much as I did making it.

First official remix I ever made about 2 years ago finally being released to public and what an honour it was to remix one of my favourite songs of that year.  The Hippy told me he conceived this song whilst lying in bed, awake, listening to the anarchy going on outside his window that was the 2011 London riots.  Infuriated by Cameron's bullshit response to the fiasco... blaming it purely on juvenile disobedience rather than acknowledging the social unhappiness of youths that it clearly demonstrated, he challenged Cameron's words.  Here we are in 2016, and despite the event being 5 years ago it all still feels VERY relevant. 

Being released this friday(20/5)via bandcamp, coinciding with us both playing Golden Lion in Bristol... its going to be a banger, come get involved...

Rootsy Reggae Mixtape Vol.2

The first track to be released from my new collective Hippo Sound System.  Each track from us will be very different as I invite guest musicians and producers to join us exploring new fusions of world music with Jungle, D&B and Global Bass. But this time with deeper, often more psychedelic and atmospheric qualities, inspired by the likes of Clap Clap! Bow De Bhajaan and Calibre.

This free download takes a sample of the beautiful cover of Jorge Ben's "Oba La Vem Ela" by Junip and features an original recording of the incredibly talented Stormae on violin.   The result is a Brazilian Folk-Rock infused Liquid D&B roller!

I I Like It Spooky - Hiphoppapotamus & Mr Fitz (Samba Junglist Vol. 2 EP)

"The Hippo Sound System is a collective of producers & musicians lead by DJ Hiphoppapotamus.  Exploring new fusions of world music & sound system culture, they take the rootsy flavours of afro & latin music to blend with modern beats, bass and junglist rhythms, and then bury their productions with deep and psychedelic atmospheres inspired by the likes of Clap Clap, Calibre and Boy De Bhajaan.  Watch out for their explosive live show on the festival circuit and also their wider events collective Tropical Tea Party.

Their remix of K.O.G & The Zongo Brigade's 'Money' strips away the lavish horns and funk to reveal the african tribal groove that underpins the track, and then re-inforces it with newly recorded percussion and makes a feature of Kweku's Balafon.  The result is heavy and spiritual global beat ready for the dance floor!"

Our (not)Goulash Disko mixtape is online NOW!!!  Inevitably there was no Goulash Disko festival this year, but as we were still allowed to travel to that gorgeous island a small group of us gathered on Kamenice Beach (in a safe manor), and felt extremely lucky and grateful to be able to play music and share in a very special vibe!

Upon return my animal friends Feline and Munki helped me try to recreate that vibe for all to hear.  Big shouts to the Stonefish massive, and big love to all the Goulash family both missed and present!  <3
