Ettiene De Crecy- Scratched (DJ Hype mix)

wow, had no idea Hype was making tracks like this, thanks for pointing this one out!


also Mondie's 'Straight' - Yes!. Sounds like next to nothing on its own but becomes the most brutal thing ever with MCs. Someones recently upped loads of the vocals on this riddim to youtube it seems.

I think Hype was getting overshadowed by Zinc back then, for every one Garage production he made Zinc was putting out six. But when you look back on it you can see that for Hype the levels were much much higher. Scratched is a weird one as the original track is appalling. It (the remix) is one of a small number of sing a long tunes from the dark garage/ dubstep stable.

It's hard to pick Grime tunes, ideally the genre should be judged on ten minute radio clips rather than instrumentals. But something like 'Pow Back' is good, Riko puts in the best performance of his career- if that was live then the flow would be destroyed by half a dozen misguided reloads. But that's one of Grime's problems really.

I know, I've been thinking about how this would work in a poll. For example, my favourite grime tune ever is Riko over Ice Rink (with Kano and Dizzy's versions not too far behind), but I guess in a poll we'd have to count the instro and all the vocals on it as one - but as you say radio clips are where this stuff comes alive and they could be any number of combinations of riddims and MCs. Like, a vote for Wiley's eskimo is really like voting for every one of your favourite MCs who ever rode it!

Yes I think I like that Hype tune better than anything Zinc's done. 138 trek is good but overrated - only really works for me with MCs. Most of the Bingo Beats stuff I've heard is boring as fuck.

while we're talking breakbeat garage, I think Blowfelt's 'lickle roller' is my top pick

Just to totally derail what you're all talking about now but... I Feel Space is such a brilliant name for a tune, I just wish that I could remember the actual tune after i listened to it.

Wicked list andy, loads of stuff I'd forgotten in there. I think we've definitely got funky covered at least now between yours, mine and Big Nose's lists. Garage too. Grime is the tricky one...

Do you reckon we should go ahead and try for a proper poll? Are enough people up for it? If so I don't mind organising it if we can all agree on a system first.

mr mageeka - different lekstrix

:eek: Oops, must have been assuming that we were just going up to the present day (think the ILX list did it this way but could be talking rubbish).

Edit: yeah they did because they had Todd Terje - Snooze For Love from last year and Inspector Norse from the same guy which came out at the start of this year. 'The long noughties' if you will. Obviously we don't have to do it this way though.

ah yeah, just realised most of mine are 2010 too :confused:

like different lekstrix is really an early funky staple (2008) but came out officially 2 years later
