    The one thing I consistently like in Radford's sets is that dark bleep donk noise, I've been a sucker for that in pretty much any genre (house, techno/bleep, garage, jungle, dubstep...). I think that's what made me check in on his sets month in month out this year. I wonder if that's proving to...

    "What a year": Independent of the fact that this is in my broad sonic area of interest, it's ace to see Adam's enthusiasm for 2013. I echo the sentiment.

    I'm not against it, I just can't laud it: it's just a house variant. I recognise it is big, of the moment & has potential for the future, but if this truly the next UKG, right now please tell me one tune from this scene that can look "31 seconds" or "Destiny" or "I Luv U" or "LFO" or "Do you...

    i've not fallen off you bellend, i'm standing up for what i hear and what i believe in. falling off is pretending you always were into house and techno really, when house and techno were invented in the 80s, if not before. falling off is being into grime then acting like house is a new...

    really? loads of those tapepacks in this threads have hosts, are they that different to Tippa? and while its clearly about abandon, if anything i find this scene too sonically "intelligent", too clean, too Euro. i find this with house heads a lot tho: i take a macro view and see the...

    yeah, i mean, is there any other lineage that strongly lead to the current radford/shuffling/LDN deep house sound?

    yes, i want to interview mark radford, i said so in public here. it's just that these albums wont put themselves out on keysound; my inbox is a madness of logistics. no excuse maybe but the reality of things...

    gah, i have no interest in derailing this thread but what would a nuum reporter even cover right now? greyscale techno-as-the-emperor's-new-clothes? disclosure? emo indie singers with a halfstep beat? brostep & trap? what does "nuum" even mean anymore? I dont think it's clear and i've said so in...

    been ploughing through those four sets Trilliam, respect for selecting them. Radford's my fave so far but it still does more for you than me. I quite like the signature dark bleep bassline noise but the whole thing's still pretty straight house for me. beat repeat delay + filter + fazer = this...

    Juke

    i really respect juke, i just dont need to listen to it all the time and on occasions i dont find much variation within it - but maybe that's just what i've encountered. i'm generally quite susceptible to repetition frustration within arrangements. questioning the format of this rashad LP is...

    Juke

    i really like the Rashad album fwiw, and i didn't spend time analyzing it on a engineering level like it sounds like some of you lot did. It just sounds like his most catchy tunes; whereas other juke stuff just jars me after a while with it's relentless repetition ("yeah yeah i get it: you got a...

    Mumdance sent me this recently, it's so gloriously confused. A guy "sending" for C Gritz, via a deep house tune; it's like two different paradigms blended together in a really comically disjointed way. (I also find the IGotShapes videos accidentally comic, like when they're dancing around a...

    I check Radford's show periodically, enjoy his passion for the music on air. Is the dark bleep becoming the signature sound for this scene or is it just his sets?
