Marvel ... is Monkey’s long established Urban Night, aiming to sew together all the threads that make up this scene under one roof. playing the best of Funk, Hip-Hop, Drum and Bass, Rare Grove, Jazz and those guilty pleasure anthems.
The marvel residents are as follows:
DJ ACTIVE With 18 years of DJ’ing under his belt cheeky little Mr Active plays the latest unreleased promos and rollers and also the best tunes from the current drum and bass chart. He comes from a place called ‘Go sign on’ translated means Gorseinon in the north west of Swansea and if u get a chance to see his record collection it would put nearly every DJ to shame. Active has played along side every DJ imaginable in the drum ‘n’ bass world and if you were there ‘back in the day’ you will remember he used to tear Martha's up!!!

DJ CHRIS Now a solid member of the hugely successful FUNK night that is held in BARONS every Wednesday Chris delivers the best selection of Soul and Funk. He is a total purist only playing original 7inch records. If you want something form the vault just ask him!
DJ SISTER 45 Monkey’s once a month only female resident DJ travels from the deepest Birmingham and brings with her a fine selection of northern Soul, Funk and OldSckool beats. She works with the Dynamite Souls one of the UK’s best break dancing crew and also has a residency in Miss Money Pennies and other equally reputable clubs in the northern region.
MC TANKTOP The dedicated tanktop wearer has the best beat boxing and MC skills this side of the seven. If you hear someone beat boxing on the balcony it is probably him. He has an awesome knowledge of hip-hop and follows the UK hip-hop scene real tight. He has preformed with the likes of Fabio, Killa Kella, High Contrast, Zinc and many other great names.
By all accounts DJ’s are ten a penny in fact DJ’s are everywhere, Uplands, Gowerton, Penlan, Brynmill, Morriston, Mayhill, Bont, Pontliw, Port Talbot, and Bryn; reaching into every nook and cranny. As Posdunose (de la soul) once said “Everyone wants to be a DJ” it cool nowadays not to be a DJ!
We would like to thank all our loyal followers for their continued support over the years. Hope to see you at the next Marvel.
