Someone told me Riko Dan recorded this down a phone line when he was incarcerated Plus anything by Crazy Titch since, well…. Does anyone remember Grime?

http://www.xlr8r.com/mp3/2010/01/square-one-greena-remix Geena remixing Moscas' Square One; probably should have posted it in the Funky thread but what the hell. Its 320.

I think its about context really, the RA interview is between producers (ok and a promoter/PR/A+R type). The point that keeps coming up esp. in relation to early FWD is that it was a flashpoint for something new and provided common ground for the producers involved to critique each others work -...

Yeah theres no doubting how prolific he is, My comment is simply a personal opinion TBH, I think the majority of Skream material being released ATM simply reflects where the demand is, but simply put there is a vibe about the 2006 stuff thats hard to beat for my money. DL'd this from your blog...

SRC is amazing. Goomba is a tuuuune. Incredible mix, too. That Terror Danjah e.p is on my must buy list.

Yeah Sweets is 2005, Angry World is the more recent, like maybe early 2006, not sure.... And yeah, a lot of Skreams recent output just hasn't been my bag, possibly Minimalistix and Percression, the last two Skreamisms didn't leave major dents in the consciousness... The Ital plate is incredible...

Ha ha, so many prime examples in this thread... One of the best I've ever had was in 2006, at a tiny little cellar gig in auckland. Dubstep hadn't broken into the NZ clubbing consciousness at this point (it's a different story now, of course) and a friend had set up this gig which he promoted...

Haven't been feeling Skreams tunes for a while, but I'm really liking the sound of this...

D Bridge on Fat City split 7" with Devon Who.

Everyones jumping on Township Funk atm, Starkeys done a version too. This seems to share a very similar sound palette to Millie, but seeing as there isn't anyone else who sounds like Ikonika thats no bad thing. If Phonelines VIP sees a release this year I will be a happy deejay. Love that tune.

Just to add further to the confusion, Megasoid and Lunice, who Frere-Jones talks about in his New Yorker piece, use the term TurboCrunk. I like a LOT of the music i've heard thats been associated with the term Wonky, I'm not sure it was the best choice of name, but hell, its not putting me off...

this in a nutshell. While I'm in danger of sounding as though I've got a case of cultural cringe, I have reached a point where I feel that both deejays and audiences (in NZ) are taking cues from the wrong aspects of what makes rave culture vital..... The LAST gig i went to was supposed to be a...

^^^ Agreed. A lot of them are pretty rubbish, bearing in mind that I'm living in N.Z. The last few gigs I've been to were dubstep gigs and it struck me that the Djs tend to play to the crowd. I felt that something vital was missing from the whole equation, which simply seemed to run as big tune...

At 33, I think I've reached the point where raving simply doesn't interest me anymore. The last few times I've been out I realised that I could easily predict exactly what I was going to hear with a fair degree of accuracy and at that point I simply lose interest. Thankfully there are still...

Welcome back thread 17 pages and counting.... The 'what did you do.... ' thread is priceless. You gotta feel for people who were in the middle of deals with other forum members via PM when the whole thing went down. ouch. Ah well. Best thing I've seen so far is the storm in a teacup gif. Best...

It's truly a shame that such a move became, in the mods opinion, necessary. But that being said, Dubway, Seckle, Boomnoise and all others who moderated deserve a vote of thanks for thier dedication. There was a marked decline in the quality of posts, certainly, but it remained the first stop for...

Sneaker Pimps Phd *sniggers* I quite liked that, esp. if it was direct at Spooky, whose game never matched his mouth. He performed and workshopped in N.Z a few years back and the best thing I heard him do was a 5 minute mix at the beginning of his workshop lecture. As for the...

Out to Starkey, Gemmy, Joker and pretty much the entire Hyperdub camp as far as I'm concerned. Pretty much bringing dubstep back from the brink.

sensational is a genius. if you look at some of the other mavericks the hiphop 'nuum has turned out (Ramellzee, ODB, Bigg Juss etc), then his approach isn't that unusual, just idiosyncratic. I certainly prefer him to the gallons of MOR sludge that passes for Hip Hop these days.
