not read anything in it yet: a story by stephen daly on the birth of rap (herc, flash, bam, sugarhill etc), a wallopping great big picture portfolio and an interview with beyonce. i'm not exactly expecting to learn anything but the photographs (mary j, outkast, nas and lots of other folks) are...

mine is still probably jammer with "neckle!" any other bids?

ok, this is partly a straw poll just because i'm interested and partly to help me on a piece i'm writing at the moment. personally, i'd go for jah cure's freedom blues, morgan heritage's full circle, anthony b's black star and i wayne's lava ground - they're all quite different and distinctive...

thanks to the pepe braddock thread, i've just started thinking about herbert. i absolutely adore around the house and bodily functions (the latter being one of my favourite albums of all time, right up there in the top 10), have got quite a bit of pleasure from his Dr Rockit output and really...

Here's the link. Just got that in my inbox. Interesting stuff.

With the exception of the title track, this is absolute cobblers. Opinions?

Sean Paul, The Trinity One-dimensional return from the former collaboration king Steve Yates Sunday September 18, 2005 Sean Paul's second album, Dutty Rock, solidified the bond between dancehall and hip hop, yielding numerous star cameos and earning the deejay the soubriquet 'collabo...

ok, you tell me. rules are that you are not allowed to include their work in either the beatles or genesis, only their solo output (talking about wings is totally permissable, though, i think). anyway, on the basis of their careers as artists in their own right, i really reckon collins wins it...

bun b chamillionaire hawk lil keke stickhorse records just a little taster of the shots i got in h-town. the full story and a lot more pictures will be in the issue of i-D that's coming out next week. here's the listing for the resonance show i'm doing at 7pm on monday. tune in if...

whattup folks - more self-promo from me again. just to let you know that i'll be doing a show on resonance on the 5th september. i'm not sure what time, but i think it'll be about 7pm or so. i'm not gonna get all tricksy and do a big live mix or anything. instead i'm just gonna play a bunch of...

i suggest we all begin with a no-holds-barred airing of grievances, then arrange "straighteners" between those who feel they need them. bank holiday monday is an ideal time for this, i think.

ahem... read it here

I came to it on saturday... when i say house music, i also mean techno and what have you. i get really bored in clubs now, especially when the whole evening is one thing, no variation in speed, tempo, rhythm structure (it's not like that at hip-hop/ragga/grime things!). i don't even like the way...

Here's the tracklist... 1. Light Ya Ass On Fire - Busta Rhymes 2. Version - Donovan Vendetta Bennett (Egyptian Riddim) 3. Girls In Girls Out - Ward 21 & Determine (Egyptian Riddim) 4. Egyptian Dance - Elephant Man (Egyptian Riddim) 5. Get With It Girl - Sean Paul (Egyptian Riddim) 6. Coulda...

it's been ages since we had a bit of a gathering, so i'm thinking we should do it again some time soon. also as the weather's nice(ish) at the moment, i'm gonna propose a barbecue (i've just bought a dope-ass portable turkish job)/cook-off/picnic in london fields, then retiring to a nearby...

i'm determined to inject a heathy dose of enthusiasm and pop to this board (don't ban me, please - i'm doing it for the good of us all!) and rachel stevens' new record is a perfect opening argument for this. it's a fucking HUGE, ballsy pop dance number that sounds not a million miles away from...

it's time she was reevaluated. it's easy to give her a hard time, what with all the tabloid tales of her being a total parody of the demanding superstar, the nervous breakdown stories, the vibrato warbling everyone reckons she does on every record she makes (she doesn't) and the fact that your...

well, those of you in london, that is. i last played with djc in new york, with ripley and it was great, so i'm expecting this to be good, too. obviously i'm playing, along with gdw and xiquet which is always fun, and it would be nice to get a few of you down. i think the coup is that i'm...

About time we talked about this properly. Of course, all these mixes are phenomenally hard to get hold of in the UK so I've been turning to slsk for most of what I have, but if anyone has any tips of where to buy (without exhorbitant shipping and customs charges, preferably), I'd be glad to hear...
