Terror Danjah

one of my favourite producers though i dont find myself liking his new stuff quite as much as his older releases. and the vocal songs ive heard from the album dont change my mind that hes best as an instrumentals kinda guy (barring a very small handful of songs).

I'll third all of that. For me, one of the most inventive producers around in the last decade (though admittedly, I haven't kept up lately). Rhythmically mad/genius/sadistic in a way only matched by Wookie, with the dropped beats, pauses, reverses, etc. He can make an instrumental so vivid that it never really calls out for vocals.

I like abstracty sounds because I come from drum n bass. I like to do different sounds – I don’t like the same sounds. I don’t like nothing straight. If it sounds like someone else’s I’m not in it. I’ve got to be different, I have to be different. I’ve got to dress different, have my hair different, my girl’s gotta be different. How I brush my teeth gotta be different, even how I sleep is different. I snore loud ladies: it’s a problem. (Blackdown interview, 2004)

Are there clips yet form the album?

I think one of the things Terror definitley doesn't get enough credit for is all the artists he has helped bring through

can someone please recommend some of his earlier stuff for me?

maybe stuff that's more easily accesible/found i.e. not a rare white that only 12 ppl own (if there is such a thing in grime circa 00-02)

Pure talent, smart, a grafter and obviously got the gift of the gab (like all the best heads in grime.)

Definitely someone who is underrated, when you look at how many artists would be nobodies without Terror as well.

one of my favourite producers from any genre of music, but i have to agree about not liking a lot of the vocals on his tunes - the instrumentals often already have enough elements in them (and are quite dense sounding) so putting a vocal on top of all that seems unnecessary. when listening to vocals of his tunes i almost always pay more attention to the instrumental than whoever is spitting.

i really like some of his RnG tunes though -

There's nothing on youtube for this but on the RnG side of things i always really loved his two tunes on this:

elijah is it true he's doing an R&G EP on harddrive soon?

i hope so. 'so sure' is like an all-time grime top 10 for me.

is that coming out officially or will it only be TPs?

best producer ever in Grime hands down for me

and one of the best producers I've heard regardless of genre - period

I've got this theory...Terror and Wiley are like the Sun and Moon of Grime. you can extend / read into that further if you want

I do have the album but haven't listened to it yet because of lack of time

what do people think of the artwork? looks like a maze...

dont play creepy crawler. not cos its not good but everyone knows that one. play stuff like sonar, green street, juggling, sneak attack, stiff. i might have already mentioned it (im crap with titles lol) which is the one that has the sample 'you like that dont you bitch'. that track is amazing.
