You say EDM, we say original UK pirate radio goodness woooo!<\/p>\n

\"Benga<\/a><\/p>\n

Original Penguin<\/a> have been running their Plugged In sessions since last year, but they’ve well and truly upped their game with their latest gig. Benga – dubstep originator, one-third of Magnetic Man and all-around party starter – took to the decks at Concrete to deliver a hi-NRG set that kind of puts previous Plugged In boys to shame. (Not that we have anything against the illustrious likes of Miles Kane, Willy Moon or Jake Bugg…)<\/p>\n

Benga, aka Adegbenga Adejumo, was only 15 when he put out his first record ‘Skank’ on the now-defunct Big Apple Records, in the process kickstarting the emerging dubstep scene. Now aged 26, he’s just released his third album, Chapter II – and he balances his Radio 1 show with Skream, a frenetic touring schedule and producing duties for people like Katy B. Did someone say overachiever?<\/p>\n
