Who is Scratchy's favourite Ramsay St resident? Breeeeeeeeee!

Isn't that a slightly patronizing attitude to take? I haven't got anything against him for having one arm - it's great that he's a DJ despite the likely limitations and stigma he's suffered through having one arm. I am also aware he has a great reputation as a radio DJ. I suppose the point I...

so i saw dizzee with newham gens last night. newham gens were up first. it was a proper set rather than a rave set, and they played a fair few new tunes, like wet pum pum, along with a few older ones like prang man. as an aside, someone needs to give d double a biscuit. man's thin. anyway...

Haven't they always been on that kinda tip though? Dizzee played a Dance festival the year before Showtime came out (Creamfields, broadcast on Radio One) and Gilles has been playing a Dizzee ident and tracks for time, well before Boy in da Corner dropped. Even his Popworld apperance isn't that...

Given that 99% of these types of program will be a wind-up for anyone who knows about the subject, why is it that people let themselves get so angry about them? It was prime-time BBC, of course it was going to be aimed at *everyone* rather than Dissensus. I too stumbled across this program as...

Pete the Feet Birmingham Local at various suburban pubs. Always wears a cowboy hat, but never shoes. Dave the Tramp Birmingham City Centre tramp who sells drugs to kids. He once disappeared for a number of months and then reappeared sporting a huge beard... hangs around with... A tall thin...

I know! I remember hearing Dizzee at Creamfields, just before Showtime came out. His new bars were SHOWER. I couldn't wait to hear them in full on the LP... However, this time around there are no lyrics of his I've heard which have been even vaugely exciting. Even the sets he did on Rinse last...

I fifth the motion, but I seem to remember Woebot being reluctant to actually put this online at the time. Perhaps the offer of the CD to Dissensian's with a post count over 500 still counts? (Spam-tastic!).

Red Road was wicked. There's a fair bit about it on the forum already which you could prob find through a search... I quite "enjoyed" This is England. There seems to be a fair bit of discourse around Skinhead culture at the moment, which is interesting to me as a kid of the '90s. I've kinda...

Interesting list! The ones i've left in the quote are recommedations i'd def. Second! I remember the day I got the full length 12" of Zombie... Didn't stop listening to that one for a while. Let's hear a few more if you've got them...

There's a short article/interview in the back of Dazed and Confused this month about the new Wiley record. Not much in the way of opinion in there, but its certainly positive to see Dazed at least still running a few bits on Grime. Its easily short enough for a comfortable read in WHSmiths or...

The new Groove Armarda single "Get Down" featuring Lady Stush on vocals would probably fit into this category. Along with Armand's "Touch Your Toes" I'm actually quite liking this "hip-house" stuff...

Loved the content of the last episode... Record collecting isn't something I'm ever gonna let myself get into, but it makes for a fancinating topic. That was like watching Harvey Pekar or Seymor from Ghost World talking about their record collections. Interesting stuff. As John Eden mentioned...

In Morvern Callar by Alan Warner, the main character aquires a mixtape which she listens to throughout the book. There are quite frequent references to exactly what is "in the ears" at specific points in time as well. There's also a very good passage about dancing in massive clubs.

I miss The Electric Cinema in Birmingham. It's the UK's oldest working cinema and while I was there was a real one of a kind place. They showed a good selection of double features, sold homemade cakes (through necessity, none of this pretencious "Innocent Smoothie" style rustic homemade shite)...

So I forced all my flatmates to watch 2 fucking travis songs and endure that cock Jools Holland and his shitty boogie woogie piano before Dizzee even came on. Can't say he was really worth waiting for. He's managed to turn into someone as inoffensive as all the rest of the Jools acts. That's...

http://www.zshare.net/download/01-untitled-mp3-529.html does this help at all?

Future Rage is just too much! I second that Betcha Did recommendation as well. Stuck it on the winamp playlist after reading this thread this afternoon and its sounding good as ever. Broken Beat is a sadly neglected genre :( Any good new stuff coming out?

Uploaded the Bugz mix. There are some glitches on the mp3, but its damn good. Grab it from here

Had a great time down at Pressure when I went. First of all, the Arches is a pretty big venue for a UK city. Added to this, I don't think I've seen such a mixed crowd down at techno before or since. In Leeds techno parties seem to be populated mostly by the fashionista crowd, which doesn't...
