Skylarkin' Soundsystem's Carnival Warm-Up featuring The HEMPOLICS

Event information

THE HEMPOLICS
www.hempolics.co.uk
Skylarkin' Soundsystem is excited and delighted to welcome up-and-coming London collective The Hempolics to Oxford for the first time to usher in Cowley Road Carnival weekend. Formed in 2009 by producer/engineer Grippa and recently returned from extensive recording sessions in Jamaica with Faithless sooth-sayer Maxi Jazz, The Hempolics take on the classic UK reggae sounds of Matumbi, The Cimarons and Smiley Culture and give them a distinctly 21st century feel, taking in dubstep, drum & bass, garage and soul. Arrive early!

COUNT SKYLARKIN & INDECISION
www.skylarkinsoundsystem.co.uk
With Carnival weekend upon us, we just had to pair up these two party-seasoned sons of the dreaming spires for a now-rare outing as a duo. Now better known as 'Man of Science', the star-gazing selector behind dubbed-out disco sessions We Are Elements, tonight Indecision delves back into the crates of ragga, dancehall and hip-hop that first inspired him to cause havoc with a crossfader in his teens. Ably assisted, of course, by The Count - who has played every single Cowley Road Carnival since its inception.
