The hardcore continuum didn’t go quiet with the introduction of the internet! After Acid House became Hardcore it didn’t lose any of it’s what the fuckness. Hardcore exacerbated it. Jungle was a different side but still as free. Maybe as time has progressed some of the shock of the sound of...

I was a massive fan of Bill Hicks when I was about 20. I ordered every single VHS tape, CD and T-shirt that his his best friend Kevin Booth had available. It all arrived (just, the VHS tapes were half way out of the packaging when it turned up) along with some of the other comedians and such...

New Westwood interview with Jammer is quite good. The big dog, now sporting some kind of stubble beard, does a good job of unwinding Jammer's barely concealed contempt so that the second half of the conversation is a lot less strained. I've always loved the resentment and suspicion Grime MCs and...

I remember those Strange Static shows. For me they are more like UK Bass or almost Bassline than Deep Tech. Deep Tech for me is less jump up and more turned towards the trad House scene from which Radford was cherry picking the darker stuff to highlight a new direction. Therefore back in 2014 I...

It's definitely not shite tech house. The following Jack n Danny set from a few months ago proves this: Jack n Danny 3am-4am @ Audiowhore I've listened to the above about 40 times since discovering it. My current new favourite is the following from last month: Lee Edwards 4am-5am @ House of...

Do they? What is it? For me its currently: Acid House > Hardcore > Jungle > UK Garage > Grime > Dubstep > Bassline / UK Funky > Jackin' > Deep Tech Deep Tech is basically Acid House reimagined so we've come full circle if that is what you mean by pegged it?

You're not looking in the right places! US Hip Hop / Road Rap / Dancehall all equals yawn. Bass House / Bassline / Deep Tech (maybe less so) / Grime all have lots of new interesting releases etc going on.

Antony Ranz - We Can Jam 8 month old track from Antony Ranz (formerly DJ Random). Got those proper oldskool sounds at the start and bumping drums. When the bass comes in you are like “okay” but it’s as this track progresses that it truly shines. There’s a light icey digital synth noise that...

Burnski & Robert James - Perception Totally reminds me of when people like Mark Radford were hand picking certain tunes from the existing house milieu and putting them together, sort of highlighting maybe a development within that existing house scene that hadn’t happened before. This track is...

Tiga vs Audion - Let’s Go Dancing (Solomun Remix) I think Solomun should probably be bigger or more well known than he is. I’ve been randomly hearing the odd thing from him for a while and they always stand out on their own. There’s a really great Boiler Room video on YouTube of him playing...

Chris Lorenzo - Come Down After finding Gammy Elbow I next clicked on Come Down. It’s quite similar to Gammy Elbow and would work well in a mix as a follow up track to the former. These tunes I’m writing about are a sequence I listen to first thing in the evening currently when relaxing. I seem...

DJ Zinc x Chris Lorenzo - Gammy Elbow Next up is some Lorenzo x Zinc which on paper can only be good. Was randomly listening to tunes on Spotify compiling a play list and discovered this oddly titled Gammy Elbow. When the bass comes in I thought I’ve heard this before but had no idea what it was...

Shiba San - What’s On My Mind I found this tune a week or two ago and it's been getting the most play. This idea of writing while listening is probably best to do when the music is new but maybe writing about a tune you’ve already heard will work to? When the bass comes in I remember thinking...

IRL streaming, video game streaming etc. Any recommendations greatly appreciated :) Personally I can't stop watching Ice Poseidon at the moment. He's an internet troll come to life and has a swiftly growing audience as a result. 1:40 Explaining why this will be short stream 2:20 Ice talking...

MXWLL - Drone Signal Any advice on how to post Soundcloud tracks so that the player appears in the thread?

Haven't looked through whole thread. That Percocet Future tune reminds me of some Michael Jackson video. The beat on his follow up is really great. Woke up in the morning a few weeks ago with the final beat-less 20 seconds going round and round in my head.
