Биография

Crucial cogs in the development of UK dance music, the Destouche brothers (Trevor and David, aka Flinty Badman and Deman Rocker) cut their teeth as MCs on North London's Unity reggae sound system, eventually adopting the name Ragga Twins in 1989. Throughout the early 90s they released a steady stream of killer and highly influential singles such as "Ragga Trip", "Hooligan 69" and "Spliffhead" - all fiercely energetic mutations of reggae, dancehall, hip-hop and breakbeats which found a home in the emergent rave scene of the time. The seminal "Reggae Owes Me Money" album, produced by PJ & Smiley (aka Shut Up & Dance) and its musical blueprint of basslines, breakbeats and ragga vocals helped define the blueprint for Jungle music in the years to come. 1995s follow up album "Rinsin Lyrics" took a more laid back approach, delving into their love of dub, hip hop and jazz (produced by Us3's Geoff Wilkinson). They continue to release new music, collaborating with new waves of producers across the bass music spectrum such as Skrillex, Sammy Virji, Mark Pritchard, Charlotte Devaney and Wrongtom as well as a recent feature with James Blake ("Big Hammer"). You can find them on the road every weekend blowing away their army of fans and always winning new ones along the way. 2023 sees the release of a new Ragga Twins album on NICE UP! Records. “Before dubstep and grime there was drum ‘n’ bass, before that there was jungle and before that The Ragga Twins." - The Guardian
