Yeah, it was definitely "bleep".

I have got that Bengt Hambreaus one, but it's been about 6 years since i've listened to it. It's definitely more organs doing simple (less timbrely complex) tones - not fruity church organ sounds. Had lots of atmosphere as I remember. Can't find it at the moment.

Fallacy & Fusion's "Groundbreaker" goes really well in a grime set - it just has a little more sparkle than some grime tunes... only a few bpm slower (135?). Fallacy is on the Virus Syndicate album.

I think the first use of Amen in rave was a Holy Noise track on Hithouse recs (around 1990). First use in hardcore was in 'We R IE' (91) I think...

I've been saying that for 3 years: in the same way that many fans of aphex twin and some "breakcore" artists are now frantically searching out old (drill'n'bass inspiring?) jungle and ragga-jungle cut-up amen 12"s that sound like early squarepusher for "big money" on ebay (when they would have...

well, they did call it clownstep for a few months, until they banned the name on DOA. Wobble will have to do.

Then again, I find I'd rather play a tune by Twisted Individual than Equinox et al sometimes... especially the more polite side of 'choppage' like the jazzier inperspective stuff (polska + F+N 12"s). Twisted's label 'Up Yours' has some wicked tracks I think. Verging on toytown gabber. The thing...

Love the tunes, but Jon E Cash is a shocking MC, he should stick to producing. Haywire was one of my first grime 12"s... and the new one 'Kamikaze' is very good. good to hear some breaks used in a rhythm again.

But then again, I'm probably the only one here who *loved* the Joker label when all else was going techstep/neurofunk.

I think you will like the new Bizzy B eps... He keeps it deep & dubby (with bass as the foundations), but it's HEAVY & lightfootedly aggressive and very un-produced sounding unlike the Breakage stuff (which I love) - closest comparison would be Equinox I suppose - Ital Lion/Stagger type thing...

What I DO miss however, is the fearsome intelligence of AWOL-style rollers and tear-out tracks - the likes of old DJ SS, L Double, Shy FX, Pascal so on.... The new Bizzy B stuff?

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, it's definitely got a "soft" kick drum... no attack - whereas all the aggressive attacky soiunds are in high-mids. I'll probably leave this track as it is and just work on something new when i get the time. cheers.

I've been using Logic for a while. It seems pretty capable. I also use Peak for editing, cos Logic is awful at that. In the spirit of Nick Gutterbreakz posting his fruityloops efforts, here's my first effort at a grime instrumental using Logic (inspired after listening to DJ Distance....)...

Hi mms, I have a cd to send you: please email (or pm) me your address....

I feel very embarrassed reading it back, and please bring on the criticism, but here is an article i wrote (the only article i ever wrote) back in 2002 for my friend sheikh at absorb: http://www.absorb.org/articles/ukgarage/index.html I didn't really know what I was talking about but I liked...

hypes version of Pussy Trak and Twelves were massive.. Beatfreaks is Bizzy B by the way.

Here lies some of the problem. I often hear the "where are the compilations?" complaint or "what is grime?" (from Americans mainly) and it's the East London MC's (and producer's in this case) insistence to be on a Major with all the trappings (attitude from US hip hop?) - a money thing. It...

Yes, and also your music can be used for any idents and links or "in-house" programme adverts for free (on any channel - worldwide). As I discovered when my music was used on mtv idents frequently, & on an advert for "victoria's secret" a documentary about "Posh" Spice on uk itv. Which I didn't...

Here <- is the breakcore sleighbells track. They're only on the intro I think.

There is a ragga breakcore version of 'we wish you a merry xmas' which starts off with sleigh bells. There's also Bizzy B's 'Jingle Bell Rock' from 94 white label dub only... (true)
