Tonight sees the launch of Prince Kong’s debut long player Proper Horror Show, Dublin’s premier grimey dancehall artist. Over the last two years, Kong’s sound has mutated from spastic breakcore to rival the likes of The Bug for quality underground junglist rhythms. He has been working with some of the best MCs around: Warrior Queen, Jah Balance, Lady Grew, Eccleton Jarrett and MC Quilombola.
Proper Horror Show drops tonight in the Melody Bar, Capel Street, Dublin which also serves as the launch of label Ghettoquietly.
Forcefed, Eomac and Manus Goan will also be playing live and their is limited FREE DOUBLE VINYL of Proper Horror Show on the door. Amazing. It’s €10 and runs from 10.30pm to 2:30pm so if you’re popping along to this first you’ll make it in. Here’s a tune from Proper Horror Show:
