Bong-Ra
Music & Live ActsBONG-RA FINAL TOUR!
From September to December Bong-Ra will be available for a 2hr full mayhem dancehall carnage hitfest GIG through Europe. GOGBOT will be one of them!
Lets go out with a bang… Amen!
Bong-Ra’s trademark ‘jungle rock’ style has been moulded over the past 6 to 7 years to become a recognizable and addictive sound. Although his compositions and tracks may vary there’s always an adrenaline rush of some sort buzzing around. Mostly recognized for his part in the ‘Yardcore’ or ‘Raggacore’ sub genre, his tracks differ significantly and crossover ranges of styles which have played a part in his musical development, be it Metal, Gabba, Jazz, Rave or Jungle…and so on. Most important is the energy and mood of each track produced.
Probably the highlight of Bong-Ra’s career is the session for the late John Peel. After having the honours of meeting the ‘Godlike Genius’ himself, Peel asked Bong-Ra to do a session which was aired on 21st of February 2002. Many tunes were played regularly and has been a huge help in getting the sound spread around.
When it comes to the performances it’s either a DJ set or an Audio/Visual set. Bong-Ra’s first ‘tour’ with DJ Scud and Soundmurderer in the UK proved to be a success. Holland’s biggest festivals (Lowlands, Eurosonic and Metropolis) we’re conquered in 2003, and A/V performances at Impakt Festival, Sonic Acts and Rotterdam Film Festival and the exposition at the Museum for Modern Arts in Arnhem show the Arty Farty side to Bong-Ra
