Known for their unique approach to reggae, Glasgow’s Mungo’s Hi Fi have always been influenced by wider soundsystem and dance music culture. They’ve distilled this passion into new single Back In The Dayz, a homage to 90s rave, jungle and breakbeat, featuring Bristolian emcee Gardna and sultry London singer Catching Cairo.
Over a jungle-esque break and a bassline sounding like a vibrating warehouse roof, Gardna and Catching Cairo share evocative memories of raves and dances they’ve enjoyed. The sounds, friendships, fashions and refreshments that connect the communal party experience flash by in a heady cocktail hit of nostalgia and optimism. The lyrics were co-written by London reggae singer, and Mungo’s collaborator, Kiko Bun.  
Like all Mungo’s productions, Back In The Dayz is simultaneously looking back and facing forward. It’s a love letter to the rich traditions of UK rave culture, but also a glimpse towards the time when we can all be free to party again.

Back In The Dayz

Mungo's Hi Fi X Gardna & Catching Cairo - Back In The Dayz

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!
