zomby - where were u in 92?

[Shonx]

yes this is true, good to get the energy levels up, plus it's got plenty of hip hop / early house energy in it too as well as rave bits. It's good to hear a hip hop accapella over tough housey beats.

If you like that sort of stuff, you should check out the Solid Trunk ep by Bird Peterson - Wu Tang, Mos Def and Biggie over some wonky house shenanigans - Fat Booty is hilarious

[Grill]

where were you in 92 is an amazing album

 

[faustus]

so where was every1 in '92? i was living in bristol, i was 5...

 

[Shonx]

I was just leaving a metal phase and getting into grunge. Heroin or ecstacy music - wrong choice

 

[Pestario]

I was in the Australian outback, western New South Wales. ('New South Wales' is one of the most contrived names for a place, why not the whole of Wales? No, we can only have a new version of the south bit :slanted

 

[urbanite]

I must've been in Volgograd (ex-Stalingrad) at the time... i was 9... mmm... yeah I don't think I knew much about music that existed outside of the USSR... just the typical 70s rock stuff, that my dad would've just brought back home from the first trip abroad

 

[mixed_biscuits]

I was probably playing football in the playground and then sweating through double Geography in the afternoon.

'In the journal covering his survey of the eastern coast of the Australian continent, Cook first named the east coast of Australia "New Wales", which he later corrected in his journal to "New South Wales".' Don't argue with the Cook. Even though it does appear to be the decision of a man suffering from mental 'fatigue'.

I was probably listening to 'Copper Blue' in '92.

 

[hucks]

Listening to The Orb and Carter USM on my paper round...

 

[Grievous Angel]

I was listening to techno, dub, ardkore and p-funk, living in west London and hanging out with John Eden.

I was listening to techno, dub, ardkore and p-funk, living in west London and hanging out with John Eden.

i was 22 years old, going to 'ardkore raves in the middle of the countryside, necking pills like they were smarties (no change there, then).

 

[HMGovt’s Glorious Return!]

I was 18 and missed Castlemorton due to A-Levels. Yeah, I know, sell-out.
I missed Fantazia at Castle Donington, which was all of 3 miles from home, due to a lads holiday in Corfu, which included a booze cruise run by techno cockneys to still-behind-the-Iron-Curtain Albania. Or so they told us.

Spent the summer taking pills and acid, misbehaving, listening to hardcore, techno and what used to be called 'alternative', in the cosmopolitan backwater of the E. Midlands.

Went to the Universe Time Machine rave near Bath, which was an eye-opener, and only about 2 weeks before 'going up to Oxford', as you have to call it, only to find that rave had not really penetrated the minds of the supposedly gilded youth of Britain, where everyone I meet seemed hung up on fucking U2 and Nirvana, waiting for Radiohead to turn up. I spent a lot of the weekends of that first term at Birmingham University, which was much more kicking. But I met like minds back in Oxford eventually and it got better, much better. Ended '92 living for Prism and Spectrum on alternate Friday nights at the Venue in Cowley Road, pilled up with some of the best people I'll ever meet and never happier. Looked like this:

This is a bit random but does anyone know if Zomby used to be a graf writer? There used to be a lot of dubs (simple silver letter pieces) on the tracksides of West London with the same spelling of "Zomby" . Is it the same guy?

 

[sodiumnightlife]

heard it said that that was true.

 

[fokse vektaire xeven]

no it 100% isn't.

 

[fokse vektaire xeven]

Went to the Universe Time Machine rave near Bath
