Roni Size

As one of my favourite DJs, I’ve seen Roni Size perform multiple times, and can’t encourage anyone enough to see him perform. As well as being an incredibly talented performer, he was also the founder of Reprazent, the drum and bass group who won a Mercury Prize for their album. In the performance, it was awesome that he had a rapper singing over his music, and encouraging the audience to dance and get involved. Sometimes in DJ sets it’s easy to forget that someone’s performing their music, but the support vocalist assisted in making the performance electric. He would step back and signal for everyone to watch Size in the moments where he was mixing like crazy, raising the beat, and scratching the decks. He played mainly form Take Kontrol, the newest album, which was epic as it was one of the first times it had been performed since its release. He also played Kops & Robbers, whick of course everyone at the concert knew inside out and so everyone was on the dance floor with their arms in the air.
The atmosphere was awesome, and he even played a couple of tracks form a Reprazent album that’s currently unreleased. Hearing new music before it goes mainstream is wonderful, and the fact that Size shared that with us was really special.

Seeing him in Manhattan with Reprazent was the highlight of my concert going days. It was crazy.. I swear I loved him enough before but I appreciated Reprazents entire crew so much more just watching and having the djs from full cycle warm basically be an opening act. It's somehow amazing when out of 3000 people my dancing catches dj suvs eye after he's getting dirty and he totally was showing the respect. Surprise Zach De LA Rocha MC for one song (this was shortly after Rage went their ways and Zach had one song mcing on a size album). Seemed like everyone just had love and it was Webster Hall. Easier trip for me to Manhattan but I've waited for this too long to not go

A life altering experience. Roni Size is a miestre of music. He takes you someplace else and suspends your beleifs into his world. You can't help but dance. You can't help but feel joy and you can see that he enjoys it too. A living legend. The sound at Aisle 5 is amazing and the lights were on point. What a way to spend my 10th anniversary at the location where my husband and I met!!

I went with some friends, we all had an awesome night. Would definitely see him again!! I Also liked the round house as a venue, the closing time was 2.00am which is good for the area.
