About the DJs

Ripley’s wreckstep raggaphonics slice through genres of street bass, dubstep, Baltimore club music, UK garage, kuduru, hip-hop, jungle, dancehall, breakcore, d’n’b, glitched-out breaks, juke, baile funk, bhangra, and dub, sprouting new life on the dancefloor. Joining Ripley from 8:30 pm -9:30 pm is Ravish Momin, a drummer who has developed an original blend of electro-acoustic beats, and also triggers and manipulates melodies to further blur the lines between composition and improvisation.
