Return of the Boom Bap: Dylan Jay / Jimmy Green / JAL

Dylan Jay presents: Return of the Boom Bap

Following the success of his first event, it was only right that he came back for another. “Return of the Boom Bap” is essentially a flashback to the golden era of hip hop, as well as the soulful and funky roots that bred it.

Now for those of you that don’t know, boom bap was born n raised in New York and became a prominent sound amongst hip hop producers of that era which ran from the late 80s till early 90s. Boom bap has a distinct sound built on a foundation of punchy n grimy drums, then layered with all sorts of sampling wizardry. Key names include: Marley Marl, Eric B. & Rakim, KRS-One, De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, Gang Starr, Wu Tang, Nas, Mobb Deep, Biggie. The list goes on.

You can expect a night of head-nodding beats n bars, soulful grooves, and funky breaks.

So if this sounds like your sorta gig, then shout your peeps and come join us for yet another curated music experience, brought to you by three local turntablists.

See you then!

This event is part of Smokehouse 10, celebrating 10 years of The Smokehouse venue.
