19.10.2018 – Special Guest Scratch Famous at the Vintage Night
2,5 years ago Jeremy aka. Scratch Famous was our guest for the Rock Steady Ballroom and played some great original tunes from the 60s. He’ll bring a slightly different bag with more 80s Reggae and Rub-a-dub for the Vintage Night and we’re sure it will be a great dance. Panza and Barney Millah will join him on the decks.

21.9.2018 – Midnight Hour, The Rhythm Ruler in Prague
As Prague is easy to reach from Berlin by train or bus we’d like to suggest a trip to the beautiful czech capital in September. The Forward March Posse is running a proper soundsystem there and is organizing a second edition of ‘The Midnight Hour’, a rocksteady ball as we know and love it from our own dances. They invited our Rhythm Ruler for this one and will celebrate the 50th aniversary of Trojan Records in fine style.

30.8.2018 – Sweet Sensation
We just heard the news that the Sweet Sensation is not gonna be continued after the special event for Reggae! Steady! Soul! in december. It looks like Berlin is a bit oversaturated with events for vintage jamaican music and the loyal supporters of DIY events where people do more than just plug & play are getting less and less. Pass by to support the crew this week and every last thursday of the month until december to give the guys a warm farewell after 14 years of dedication. Original records will be played by Rudewoi, Smart Soul, The Rhythm Ruler and special guest Boss Bread (Old Fashioned Rudeboys) this week.
