Roni Size said: “Bringing back Reprazent has been on my mind for some time now. I’m looking forward to playing new tracks from the new album. There’s no better feeling than when you walk on to the stage to perform a live show, the noise of the crowd, the screaming that turns into a roar! All of a sudden, its all systems go – then we all become one!“
