Reggae on a Bike, Must Sell Off

Whats Up Mad Music Fam. Music continues to be a binding force in unique and interesting ways. Today we share a new musically inspiring feature I recently found "Music on a Bike". So a DJ created a concept of turntables on a bike where he rides through communities playing music and building a party vibe. Not an easy task to cue and mix while riding and navigating, but he seems to have it under control, most of the videos are Drum and Bass music. So as many of you know the British based genre of Drum and Bass or DnB was inspired and influenced by the original Jamaican dub and reggae which is characterized in the bass heavy sound.

Enter Dom Whiting a full time mechanic and part time DJ who decided to with the relaxation of some covid protocols to have a party on a bike. He said " I want to bring people together and enjoy a bit of music because we have been away  from each other for a long time." Nothing like music to bring people together 

Its mad fascinating whether you are into the music or just the characters who are riding with him, of just the scenery of various towns throughout England.

If  Drum and Bass is not your "cup of  tea" just fast forward to time mark to 18:38  to hear Koffee's Toast drum n bass style to see the reggae influence. 

Enjoy... Maaad

 
And just to show how a good vibe and music can grow organically look at where he started with the first video, just him and his so so self.
