    Dance music in Europe

    Was thinking whilst watching Gomorah (there is a scene where they listen to some fast and very cheesy/poppy techno in a car) - what's the rough-and-ready dance music getting played in the grimier clubs in Europe for young people? I do not really mean minimal and similarly (apparently)...

    The End is closing

    Says on the website. Quite like the inside of the club, much more palatable than Fabric (though smaller obviously).

    Direct me to broken-beat in London please

    Now co-op has sadly gone from Plastic People where should I go? Have the Co-Op guys found a new home? Can't think of anything except Deviation at The Gramophone which is quite a general night.

    Investment advice

    I have a lump sum to do something with - I want to put it away for a couple of years maybe and not touch it. What is the best bond/investment/etc for interest rates? Thanks.

    Co-op @ Plastic People ends...

    PP site says it has finished there. Sad news. Anyone know of where the co-op night might start elsewhere?

    Do Brits make the best breakfasts in the world?

    A weekend doesn't seem right without a fry-up. Wouldn't want one everyday of course but there is something so celebratory, uplifting and gently patriotic about a full English. Or is that just me?

    Deep reggae like 'Heart of the Congos'....

    I am not a reggae buff at all but I can't get enough of this at the moment. I love the disembodied chanting bits. What else is along similar mournful, mystical, meditative lines? Ta.

    Denim

    Fashion is a big area of culture that doesn't seem to get any attention here! So what are your tips or tales on denims and jeans? I swear by the Nashville jean by a Japanese brand Edwin. Edwin do jeans like Evisu used to before they were adopted en masse by the Henri Loyd massive. Strong...

    What are your favourite musical pairings?

    People, elements, groups, producers etc. Two that spring to mind for me are Rae + Ghost Trim + Scratch Both a bit obvious I spose. Is it a big thing in dancehall for two singers or deejays to do an album together? Cos i don't have many albums but i have a Tony Rebel/Cutty Ranks and a...

    How/why did Dizzee blow-up ahead of any other grimers?

    I wasn't into grime at the time but it recently struck me that i didn't really know about his ascent from (presumably) your standard pirate-radio Roll Deep member to relatively big national name. Obviously Mercury prize was instrumental in that, but what about the early bit, any key...

    Are pure Garage sounds still being made?

    I got into dubstep and grime without being into UKG (listening to lots of US hiphop and some electronic stuff instead), so as a consequence im pretty ignorant of the Garage scene past and present. People seem to think the golden age was maybe 5 years ago, but are people still pushing a 'purer'...
