    GRIME- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    I'm under no obligation to present grime in the best possible light to the point of downplaying the importance of a murder - grime has a problem with violence and that's a fact. I am just pleased that I got links to JME and Skepta's Myspace pages on a website read by thirteen million people. The...

    GRIME- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    Yeah I can't really disagree with you, the thing is though: in order to smash up the stereotype 'Grime is about violence', people have to be aware of that stereotype (and its effects) in the first place, and I don't think most Guardian readers are. And obviously space is very limited. I tried to...

    GRIME- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    Did something for the Guardian about Crazy Titch - naturally I expect at least two pages of merking here for my no-doubt-innumerable factual errors, misinterpretations, distortions, conflations, generalisations, and statings-of-the-obvious.

    DUBSTEP- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    Very unfair to judge anything on one-minute clips I know, but stuff like this does not bode well.

    DUBSTEP- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    New Tectonic Plates compilation sounding pretty good. For me, highlight = Skream - 'Bahl Fwd', lowlight = Armour - 'Iron Man'

    dutch flowers/raw survival

    What I don't understand is: the vinyl tracklist is already completely different to the CD tracklist. Presumably many of the people who already own Skreamizm will be getting the vinyl version anyway. So why not make the CD a kind of 'greatest hits', with repeats from Skreamizm, and the 2xLP a...

    'deep funk'

    The continual CD compilations of unearthed rare funk 7"s on Soul Jazz, Jazzman etc. suggest there must be a market for this kind of thing, but I never hear much talk about it. Personally I love it in small doses. Any thoughts? It's a weird situation in a way because the obscurities probably get...

    London free papers

    I like Pet of the Day in the London Paper. I have as much contempt as anyone for the readers of these things but admittedly if they just filled them full of pictures of puppies with hats on I'd never miss an issue.
