    Russia Surrounded

    I seem to remember the number is vastly higher than this, more in the range of hundreds rather than three. All in all though it is hard to measure as the Vietnam war took place in at least three countries, and arguably started in the early 40's and ended in 1979. And to add to the litany of...

    Hardcore Continuum Autopsy

    I would dispute that. 15 years ago Britain had around five dance music magazines and they all covered trance, some of the big superclubs like Gatecrasher or Cream played a lot of it so it would have been commercial suicide for journalists to ignore it. Nowadays there are only two magazines left...

    Hardcore Continuum Autopsy

    Droid is far too busy to be talking about his hometown, not like you Cockneys who are all on the dole and have got nothing better to do.

    Post the best grime instrumentals ever

    Ooh er madam... This next tune in no way features Dizzee, it's an untitled dubplate by skream- it starts after 15 seconds The little I have heard of Esco he sounds really good, is there any good radio sets of him. The ones I've listened to have him spitting for 90 seconds, leave for a smoke...

    GRIME- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    Looking for Christmas gifts in Belfast, I came across a most tacky item- the Grime calendar. https://www.calendarclub.co.uk/entertainment/music/grime-a3-calendar-2018-r214410 If you can get it here you can get it anywhere, coming to a pop-up stall in a shit shopping centre near you. Although...

    chav--explain to a confused expatriate please

    No matter what way you look at it, it's a great time to be a privileged chav. There's a chav in the white house, arguably every celebrity who uses twitter or talks to the press is a chav. With members of the Royal Family bending over backwards to get that lucrative Hello magazine photo shoot...

    chav--explain to a confused expatriate please

    In an ideal world the last two episodes will come out Christmas time. The last episode is particularly long, violent and epic, so it's possible I might blow that deadline.

    Beer And Beer Drinking

    I hate this trend towards 330ml bottles & tins. It's all very well that in a pub a pint of ale is more or less the same price as lager, but in an off licence you have to compete with tins of lager at 70p. That is the reality. If you're drinking cheapo beer all night and only allowing yourself...

    Tunes that Spawned a Thousand Imitators

    DJ Zinc changed a lot in Garage after 138 trek and 'Hold On' came out: It has been said that Jesse's 'On & On' was influential because it was simplistic and encouraged people to make House because it wasn't that great a track and if it could be a hit it wouldn't be too hard to do better...

    Films you've seen recently and would unreservedly recommend:

    Porno would never have worked as a film, it would have needed to be a tv series to get the whole story in. That being said, a show about making a skin flick couldn't be aired. They did the right thing with T2, it's a completely different story and even Welsh doesn't mind them not being authentic...

    Films you've seen recently and would unreservedly recommend:

    They let themselves down by not having Dale Winton in it this time round. Also, as the years go by Ewan Bremner looks more & more like Spud. Spud also looks more like Spud.

    Can this be read by someone who's never read any Marvel stuff before, or am I 50 years to late to understand it.

    questions you are dying to ask but are too scared to b/c of music nerd cred?

    So when a track is too short for a twelve inch, why do they press it up on 12 and not 10"? It's not a common problem but when it happens you have to wonder why they wasted all that plastic and ended up with a more expensive product. Or is there a reason that anyone knows of.
