MDE Ft The Ragga Twins – Move It Up [Get Twisted]
MDE, the finest purveyors of 90s’ inspired house, are back with the deep and dirty ‘Move It Up’ featuring jungle icons The Ragga Twins, to be released on the 29 September on Get Twisted Records. ‘Move It Up’ packs a punch from the off, fusing old school acid house synths and vintage jungle stabs, with legendary MCs The Ragga Twins lighting up the tough bassy beat.
Since rebranding as MDE, the UK duo formerly known as My Digital Enemy have enjoyed an excellent summer with launch MDE release ‘Feelings’ – also released on Get Twisted Records – as well as ‘Magical’, a collaboration with label bosses Tough Love. Their most recent release, ‘Acting Like A Freak’, has also got them winning plaudits from such names as Laurent Garnier, Danny Howard, Golf Clap, Charlie Hedges, and Tom Shorterz.
The Ragga Twins are regarded as two of the pioneers of jungle, having recently celebrated their 25th anniversary. Flinty Badman and his brother Deman Rockers, with their friends on record label Shut Up and Dance, together put out some of the earliest tracks that would go down in jungle history. The Ragga Twins also brought their reggae roots to the hardcore genre in the form of rewinds and lines they had perfected from their sound system days. Together, they helped the jungle scene to grow and become one of the most influential music trends in living memory.
