Hurricane – a gwaan hype!!!
The Bayreuth sound - winner of the German Reggae Award 2005 - is one of the most in demand sounds of Southern Germany and can boast more than 200 performances. No matter whether at mega events such as Splash! and Summerjam, in top German clubs like the Rude7 or the U-Club, abroad in Italy or Belgium, or on the radio, the boys from Hurricane always deliver with their energetic performance.
Hurricane on duty
n 2003, Dead Mike, Gardener, and E.N.S. founded the Hurricane Soundsystem and started their two popular regular parties "Bay-Root Bashment" in Nuremburg and "Dancehall X-Plosion" in Bayreuth, their hometown. Both events soon ranked amongst the hot spots for Reggae and Dancehall in Bavaria as well as the rest of Southern Germany.
Since August 2008 MC Rojah is the fourth member of the Hurricane crew.
Hurricane on tour
Since inception, success arrived quickly for the Soundsystem with immediate bookings throughout Bavaria and the surrounding regions. They filled many festivals, parties and clubs in Southern and central Germany such as the Summerjam, the Sandboard World Cup, and Splash! with their unique sound.
Furthermore, the three were able to prove their skills abroad in Italy, Belgium, Austria, the Czech Republic, and Switzerland. In 2005 they won the German Reggae Award for 'Best sound system'.
Hurricane on tape
Of course, the three "Hurricanes" aren't only active on stage. Their mixed tapes: "Natural Disaster", "Hot In The Club", "High Voltage", and the critically acclaimed "Danger Zone", were sold nationwide. The tapes were also made available in Austria, the Czech Republic, and Switzerland where they have continued to sell well.
Hurricane on air
The boys' music is frequently played on the radio. 'Air play' @ Jam FM (Germany's premiere station for black music), Gong FM, and Radio Galaxy all feature Hurricane on their playlists. They can be heard online too at radio stations such as Raggakings.net.



Hurricane on stage
Hurricane view themselves as a sound system following the Jamaican model. It is not only about playing the hippest records but about a stage show where an "MC" or "Shouter" fuels the crowd, creating a connection between the DJ and the audience – the boys' artistic flair is unmistakeable and is only matched by their energetic stage performance.
