In Time is the new album from roots and reggae producer Wrongtom and Hackney’s veteran breakbeat/ jungle MC’s the Ragga Twins. This album strips back the jungle, D&B, garage sound that the Ragga Twins are recognised for pioneering today, to take you back to the ‘80s reggae and dancehall landscape where they started out.
Wrongtom met the legendary bredrin Flinty Badman (Trevor Destouche) and Deman Rockers (David Destouche) at Shambala festival in 2013, where they began their saga. This performance ignited an unstoppable collaborative process and so followed the exchange of dub mixes, one-take recording sessions, and an old moth-eaten rucksack full of ‘80s lyrics.
In his unique crossover career, multitalented Londoner Wrongtom had already
become renowned as a purveyor of the underground to the masses through a stint
as tour DJ and co-producer for Hard-Fi, and the hit Wrongtom Meets Roots Manuva
reworks album ‘Duppy Writer’ which had brought him further profile and props
as a remixer and collaborator. Wrongtom has developed an in-demand live set with
the Ragga Twins which he will be performing across the UK this year as a 9-piece
reggae outfit and stripped back set, amidst
working on producing a new album with some heavy new vocalists.
The vivid and dynamic album artwork on ‘In Time’ intricately captures Wrongtom in a time machine visiting the Ragga Twins at different stages of their career.
