excuse my laziness andy, but the easiest way to get to is via smoove kriminal's first show of october. right at the end. the mix in is highly effective here too

i should like to add mike delinquent's dancehall and mj's volcano riddim for 2010 andy you're right about the colonel too, that deserves its place. surprised to see no ill blu from you tho? and where's tim with all the vocals? :p

a lot of my favourite tunes this year weren’t funky. a fair few of them weren’t released in 2010 it turns out (dakar /motion to the ocean).. i now want to throw up some youtube on the circle thread.. anyway, funky’s apparent nemesis – actual releases :) lr groove – the groove / device sunday...

wow – i’ve had this on hd for a minute but only just got round to listening to it (sound familiar?) kumfy mix from early october. some serious heat within - deep styles – and with no love lost for ic and tippa the selections unequivocally trump ehq4 imho. sendspace link has expired, so just...

nah that's good timing slackk i can appreciate grime vocals on funky fwiw. the stuff that puts me off is the testosterone-esque warping b-line (and not enough else) stuff (screama’s funky gangsta is an example) that initially put me off jungle.. last supper shows are great, broken wings/theme...

no baboon, i think you're correct. word has it that the woman does indeed have a vagina

..and word from the man himself is that an ic production w/ cooly on vocals is forthcoming too..

have to big up cooly g: topatop beatsmith, label impresario, mother with vision and now camerawoman of distinction :) <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value=""></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess"...

having listened back to that march last supper set the one thing (outside of the bleeding obvious) that strikes me is that there hasn’t been a better funky-as-jungle (clattering rolling drums, half step bassline) tune this year than baby face j’s brazilla, has there? champion lighter / digital...

^^ have a listen to the ghettophiles release, then you might understand the intention :D

if we're throwing up old clips then gotta have this - out to rashad <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value=""></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"...

ory i can't be bothered to confirm by looking but that's slt (slaughter mob) - i'm pretty sure the track's tinji

vol 2 of dj ic’s abrique musica. possibly not quite as strong as vol 1 – which is percy - but still well worth a listen if you’re feeling tech / deep / soulful house lurking right at the end is a standalone ic production, some nex spiritual praise that, along with track 13 on vol 1, hints...

haha, brilliant! true as well, i don't really know why anyone would want to go to a funky rave in the sneakers & hoody. fix up, you scruffy gits ;)

@ tim you make an interesting point re ‘weaving disparate elements gradually’ / impact. this – along with the obvious ‘tunes as mc riddims, essentially’ (i mean, you were the one that said that, right?) extends the feeling i alluded to re funky > grime 2. the ‘slowbuild’ as you say, or - as...

n a big set from the new breed, live at ruby lo 28/10, big up sef - afro power man rinse djs kumfy & lighter - check the opening special http://tiltwoparties.files.wordpress.com/2010/10/kumfy-b2b-lighter-til-two-28th-oct.mp3

and vol 1 of ic's oct mixtape 8-13/14 = proper dubbage http://www.filefront.com/17348475/DJ-IC-Presents-...-ABRIGUE-MSICA-.zip/

hmm.. agree on the positivity angle - both sonically & lyrically grime is (was?) obv far more aggy than funky is certainly – that was surely grime’s intention - but i feel that you’re missing my point (could of course be that i’m missing yours, you lost me from the dnb to garage analogy onwards...

september kismet mix http://www.filefront.com/17315915/Journey-Into-House-Vol-2.zip/ tracks 7 (for the circle gyal), 8 (a wha dat?), 11 (for the ravers) and 14 (for the fuckin b-line!)

@gumdrops quoting u here for discussion, rather than to pick at your general point, but from what i've heard recently this (mcing over beats) seems to be funky's raison d'etre right now - tim f makes a worthwhile analogy with dancehall after all - so, to push blackdown's comment further - grime...
