The Nextmen n MC Wrec, Shamik @ Roxanne - Jan 8th

[TheOperatives]

The Operatives and Roxanne Parlour Present The Nextmen feat MC Wrec and Shamik.


You may have heard of The Nextmen. In fact, unless you’ve been captive in Guantanamo Bay for the most of the Noughties, we’d wager you’d definitely heard of them and more than likely witnessed them at one of their many festival-stopping summer performances or heard their incendiary mixtapes on the neighbourhood ghetto blaster. The production/songwriting hip-hop duo consisting of Dom Search (aka Dominic Betmead) and Brad Baloo (aka Brad Ellis). Born and raised in Cambridge, they are based in London. Their music fuses U.K. soul and reggae with a hip-hop foundation. With 3 superb albums under their belt and now their fourth on the way, well it’s time to see them live in action and get some serious on-air edits.
And joined by Jon Bailey aka MC Wrec, who’s is regarded as one of Britain’s most exciting young artists and music entrepreneurs. Known as one of the hardest workers on the circuit, this versatile young grafter has shot to fame in recent years after becoming the front man to the multi award winning live act London Elektricity and his work with acclaimed eclectic acts The Nextmen, Stanton Warriors and Timo Maas. Difficult to pigeonhole, exciting to listen to, and with fingers in several tasty pies… you cant knock his drive or take his eyes off the prize.

Joined by a very special guest from Canada, SHAMIK THE HUMAN BEATBOX (Vancouver). Shamik hears music in his head and uses beatboxing to bring it to life. He has performed in Canada, USA, Czech Republic, India, China, Thailand, Malaysia, Taiwan, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Philippines. With crushing basslines and crisp rhythms, Shamik has captivated audiences from nightclubs to outdoor festivals by creating a DJ set with his mouth. After performing alongside artists like Q-Bert, Bassnectar, Method Man & Redman, Skream, Thievery Corporation, Z-Trip, Freq Nasty, Killa Kela, Tanya Tagaq, Sub Swara, and The Glitch Mob, he continues to spread the artform of his vocal percussion. Alongside the best beat slingers in town, The Operatives who will name their Asian Pacific Agents very soon...
