Reggae hit LAundry


A few months back I had a small chat with Joe Kidd at his Ricecooker shop. Nothing fancy, we just conversed about the scene old and new. Among others he recommended me to checkout  this reggae/soul/funk band The Aggrobeats which he spoken highly of.

A side project of Edy and Bakri (of the Gerhana Skacinta fame), The Aggrobeats draw inspirations from current reggae favourite sons, Los Angeles' The Aggrolites to soul legend James Brown. and when the band was slated to perform at Laundry during the 'Alompak Ago Go' series last week, i was tempted to find out.

As quoted from their Myspace bio; 'an aggressive music with an aggressive attitude on stage,the band crystallized their musical ideals for the genre by cutting down the ska beat and mixed with funk and soul into it '...and they certainly proved that
