Hey, I've got a bunch of records that I was going to sell to the London M&VE, but benjybars persuaded me that I shouldn't. The list is about 70 records: mainly dubstep and dnb/jungle, along with some house/minimal and hip-hop (FlyLo-type stuff). The list is here...

http://www.darwintunes.org An experiment in evolving music by creating little loops using genetic algorithms and getting people to rate them - check it out. Only running until this Sunday, although I'm not sure why. On the right hand side you can see how the loops have changed since it started...

There's a well-written although not that heavy or theoretically chewy academic book on her: 'The Voice of Egypt' by Virginia Danielson. I played oud for a performance of Enta Omri once, loved it, but afterwards didn't really enjoy listening to the recording of it I had, so I couldn't say where...

I like.

hahahaha

I would love to hear Youngsta mixing Conference into Root - if you could upload a set with that in it I would be truly grateful. All I've got from 04/05 is that one set Blackdown hosts on his blog.

Can anyone ID the first beat (not rap) on Wiley's Westwood freestyle? I was hoping it'd be on his album but it doesn't seem to be.

Some girl drives home from work most weekdays and always gets to the same track on Buju Banton's 'Til Shiloh - "Untold Stories" - when she gets to the intersection near my flat. Often to the bit where he says 'you know the east is the best' actually. Nice summer music, as well.

Yeah. It puts me off playing the records that he's done with Kode9, his accent seems too exaggerated to me. He MCd at a gig I went to once though and he was amazing, very engaged. Also re the accent, I looked at his website once and 'Spaceape' seems to be a sort of art(-school) project persona...

Which are his 2 step tracks? I've got the last two albums which are spotty but I quite enjoy

Hey thanks a lot, I downloaded the radio recording of d-bridge's set and its amazing, really really vibesy. I was really surprised by the tempo as well, it took me almost 20 minutes to consciously clock that it was dnb and not dub

Mmmm... classical musicology is you.

Hopefully this interview with Dizzee (from 2003) isn't a repost: http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/jan04/articles/dizzeerascal.htm - I love the Mala-like therapy comment at the end.

This is a fascinating interview with Rob Playford: http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/jun98/articles/goldie.html And Goldie is doing an orchestral piece for the BBC Proms in August, which should be equally fascinating

What do people make of Digital (the producer)? He's been around for ages, he's always been making tunes, I've heard very few of them but a couple - Far Out and Special Mission, the first tunes on the Metalheadz Boxset, and Lower Depths/Sub Zero, engineered by Photek and I think the only tunes on...

I believe in dis very much.

In the Red Bull Academy interview thingy, Mala said how much he disliked press releases for colouring his perception of the music before he'd even heard it, and I thought that was a really good point - it's made me completely distrust written descriptions of music and pay more attention to how...

I am told by a psychology lecturer that they also correlate slightly with physical attractiveness...

So what did El-B play?
