Reaction Bike-Power Stage

Expect big sounds from the Reaction Bike-Power stage. This is a truly people powered stage featuring the mighty Reaction Sound System.

The speakers are 100% people powered using 9 bike generators pedalled by YOU! The cyclists have to work together to keep power levels high – the harder you pedal the louder it gets! Reaction use their custom built solar rig to power the lights and keep the decks spinning, resulting in fossil fuel free, full eco-vibes.

This year they have expanded their horizons and as well as the customary roots, reggae, dancehall, dub and jungle from the Reaction Crew, they’ve invited a selection of their pals to bring you reggae, rockers, roots, calypso, ska, dub, funk, cumbia, afrobeat and disco – combining to give you some serious aural pleasure!

19:45 Ms Fabulous

I’ve always loved reggae, from ska music in my youth club in teenage years, through to living in London in the 70’s. Vinyl is my favourite format, and collecting it/finding treasures is part of the excitement. I’ll be playing music from calypso to dancehall, from the 60’s up to now, with a few hip hop and afrobeat surprises thrown in too. I am part of York’s Irie Vibes sound system, and I also play with Tropica!, York’s world music music collective. I can’t wait for the Northern Green Gathering vibes…
