GROOVERIDER - what happened?

He's still going strong, basically one of the scene leaders in terms of profile. I always associate him with the slightly darker, more "techy" style of D'n'B these days.
He's still representing D'n'B on national radio, alongside Fabio. I guess listening to their show would give you the best idea about what they're currently up to (I think they present the show individually - i.e. this week it's Fabio, next week will be Grooverider).

He still has the show on Radio 1 which I think now he does on his own.

my first memory of him was DJing at a packed Metalheadz@Blue Note,
my last memory was of him on his mobile outside our studios on brixton hill with a broken BMW

Grooverider is a legend. The music he plays now though is crap. Another underground DJ succesfully neutered.
Strictly thinking about his presenting style however, as a masterclass in ego-fueled pantomime he's up there with the best (ie Westwood!).
The excessive use of sound effects, the boasting, the comedy rewinds, another comedy rewind, one more for good measure, then some big dawg bravado about how he runs tings.
i listen to his show for the links alone sometimes!

Obviously my oh-so-subtle bit of Grooverider hating has gone unnoticed.
Click on the link above people - you wont be disappointed!

I don't find anything wrong with that, it's all pretty punk rock, hedonistic and decadent.
Bono or the Corrs or [insert any cool and essential Irish tech act] couldn't be as damaged and spontaneous and hilarious as that in a zillion years - maybe Colm should go techno?

'punk rock'?
Complacent, conservative, middle class and symbolising everything wrong with D+B/big name Djng today more like.
Coke is for wankers...
(BTW - Im sure Bono and the Corrs have on several occassions produced equally slurred and 'hilarious' comments whilst babbling senselessly about their holidays during a drug induced fugue - but what on earth does that have to do with grooverider??)
