Last year's Notting Hill Carnival (2002) blew up more than expected with the Futureproof sound system causing a road block on each of the two days. Although it was the first year at this location, word on the street travelled fast, and before long spin doctor Wiggles was givin' the crowd a mix of the freshest carnival sounds. Big up to the man who kept an ever growing crowd in the carnival spirit for the whole the two day event.
