WELCOME TO THE HOME OF LONDON'S
FUNKIEST SOUNDSYSTEM

The Rapattack (Funki-Fresh Soulsound) 1984 - 2009

It's all about music for classy people and this is the place to be, strictly for connoisseurs who enjoy the ultimate night out (once in a while). We also provide a comprehensive service for all your event and partying needs.

Rapattack lays tribute to the late great and first international global superstar Michael Jackson (1958 - 2009), a truly magical talent which will deeply and undoubtedly be missed. Join us in July and August to pay our respects at the forthcoming Retro Splash and at Carnival 2009.

"You're one of us Michael, so we're always gonna love and remember you no matter what people may think or say... Truly a champion in the fight for recognition and historical achievements for Black music and musicians as a whole...

A sad and tragic loss" (Master MC)

 

SO WATCH OUT FOR OUR EXCLUSIVE 25th Anniversary Party

Coming soon...

In the meantime and in between time 100% musical satisfaction is guaranteed


So get yourself ready for our...

Retro Splash at an exclusive new venue in Kensington

Saturday 1st August 2009

Hey fellas, can you remember back to when you got your 1st pair of Adidas trainers and played on your commodore 64 or Atari.  Ladies can you remember back to the days of drinking Babychams and Caneis whilst smooching down to the likes of Luther Vandross and ‘feeling the need’ for a young Miss Anita Baker or having a ‘magic touch’ from Rose Royce. How about listening to the late great Michael Jacksons’ ‘Off The Wall’ album for the first time. If these bring some wicked memories floating back, then this definitely is an event for you. We will be rewinding back to the time of ‘proper raving’ when people really went out to enjoy themselves and there was an abundance of real and mind-blowing music out there. For this feat we have picked a truly wonderful, exclusive and stylish new venue located  in Kensington, West London. Aptly named ‘The Kensington Bar’ has recently undergone a 3 million pound refurbishment and possesses an interior décor that many would die for. It is truly amazing by today’s modern design standards. You’re all just gonna love this.

Advance tickets are already moving fast. Call  the telephone hotline: 07508 788081 for more information and bookings and  check out the following Flyer for more details:


WHAT'S NEW!!!!!
Or shall we say what's not new. Life inevitably has its ups and downs. As we journey through life, we are touched by its pleasures and pains. We experience joy and sorrow, love and heartache, anticipations and regrets, but thanks goes out to the higher power who invented emotion and feelings that can be touched by such things as sweet soulful music...  After all, hasn't there been a time when either the melody, but certainly the lyrics of a tune has really touched your heart, mind, body and soul??? or brought that tear to your eye? Come on- admit it. Don't be shy. It's all about feelings. It's all about love. It's all about life- and we're all confronted with the struggles of moving onwards and upwards, especially in dealing with what can only be described as the challenges we have to endure. I suppose in a way it's like gambling- Break or bust

What is the tune or song that really touches or has touched YOU???

We want to know. It's easy so please do let us know by entering your song here- click here

ON THE DECKS AT CARNIVAL
Rapattack is one of Carnival's most well known and popular sound systems. For DJ Master MC there are a couple of hiccups in the run up to the big day this year, but nothing that can't be rectified. There's also time for some practice mixing at home. Check out the Master MC on video at the BBC website - click here (this links to the BBC website)
