Dig Deep with Mikey D.O.N 201011




This weeks show features a a very special Dig Deep sound-clash with Mikey D.O.N (Krispy 3 / Night Of The Living Dread).

Mikey aka Microphone D.O.N was a key player in the original Chorley based crew Krispy aka Krispy 3 - arguably one of the best, and least acknowledged, British rap groups of all time.

The crew consisting of Mikey D.O.N and Mr Wiz came via their father's sound system, Mellow Tone, and went on to release records packed with wit and charisma on Kold Sweat and US indie Bomb.

As well demonstrating his MCing skills with Jinx In Dub, Mikey is a formidable DJ in his own right and has amassed a superb record collection full of rare and sought after gems.

(Fast forward to 2013 and Mikey's 'Night Of The Living Dread' night has been filling the Band On The Wall in Manchester for time. The night that promises Dub to Dancehall, Roots Rockers to Ragga via Lovers Rock went monthly as of March 2013.)

Well known for not taking any prisoners in the DJ booth, Mikey laid down the challenge to one of his infamous sound-clashes and we agreed the arena would be set on reggae funk soul jazz disco afro vibes...
