Update!! Mistical Sound System outta Sicily & Majestic B will be joining us as well, so run come rally!

This Friday the 6th of June it's time again for Vital Versions XL live from Earth Works Amsterdam!

Joining Tjotjo Sound System & myself in the booth will be none other than Empress Black Omolo & Ray Ranking.

The first time I&I got to share a booth with Omolo was over a decade ago, and it's been awesome to see her grow into such a powerhouse, both on stage and off. With our collaborative sessions at Skateland Rotterdam in mind, and with her having taken on selecting as well, we figured it was high time to invite her for Vital Versions.

Representing Ghetto Cornerstone & Shamba Lion Sound System, Amsterdam's own Ray Ranking shouldn't need much introduction either. Killer selections each & every time, well on his way to becoming one of the premier reggae producers in Europe, sparks will be flying.

Come share a vibe with us at the studio, or tune in to YouRadio from 7PM till midnight for Vital Versions XL!
