He's lucky they didn't! At least the pigs are doing their job.

It's at Juno: http://www.juno.co.uk/labels/Hot+Flush/

You can't really say that these days. Maybe you can in Australia, but not here.

It might lead to middle of the road music in some situations, however it can also lead to hours of self indulgent wank, while the crowd stand around scratching their heads. As a DJ you have to take your audience into account. If you don't then you're a cunt.

No, I said realistic.

And they chose the singles? OK, if that's true I take back what I said about Relentless.

Shake a Leg is an awful record. It's not a great start when you get openly laughed at by Chris Moyles and compared to novelty records. The tracks that made the album were a naked attempt by Relentless to cross over, ignoring the fact that the two albums from the scene that have done the best...

Reza, sorry I haven't sent you that record man. The TPs all got swallowed up and I only got 3 finished copies. The rest are either at distributors or in a warehouse in Essex! I'll hit you up when I get some more.

Views on what fits into a particular genre differ wildly. Some people call some of the breakier stuff we release dubstep. I guess DMZ fit into the category best, but there are overlaps. I would place what you play more as grime, but quite a lot of your beats sound more like electro to me. I...

Yep, they've just made a pigs ear of the Roll Deep album/singles. I can't think of a worse label to get a decent grime album together.

Maybe if grime DJs thought about tayloring their sets a bit (like you did) we wouldn't be having this discussion. NB - you've probably got he finished mixes if Jamie gave them to you then.

OK, give me a realistic alternative. Obviously it's not a question of either/or, but for the purposes of a forum... :rolleyes:

LOL @ 'oriental'. What century are we in again?

Right, but if what I hear is true, at the 4th Birthday everyone left after Geeneus played. That's not quite what Forward was supposed to be about is it? So now you get Grime for a bit, and then when the dubstep comes on, half the club leaves. Great. I'm all for grime influencing dubstep...

I suspect the problem with getting something like this together (and the reason more compilations haven't been released) would be that the grime scene as a whole thinks it's bigger than it is. If the market for a grime compilation with a licensing budget of £20k was there, then someone would put...

We'll see how the attendences go, Martin.

FFS Blackdown, does everything have to get personal with you? In any case, what does breakbeat have to do with me (or anything else for that matter?). I couldn't give a flying fuck about Forward. It was consistenly half full 3 years ago, then it got good for about a year (co-incidentally in...

Finally got round to watching that Practice Hours DVD last night. Hilarious, and suprisingly tight editing.

Happily, London isn't as segregated as that (yet) so running into trouble is pretty much down to luck and/or how much you want to find it. In terms of the music scene, there's no doubt that there's an unsavoury element that follows grime, which rarely finds its way to nights like Forward. If...

Come on, Monbiot is a complete fruitcake. In response to the rest of the thread, even if Wolfie is a US hegemony-perpetuator (a position I don't agree with), what's the problem? I'd much rather have that than a Chinese one...
