Big tunes send out their first mailer today!!!! I feel the hand of history on my shoulder etc.

Classic EZ! Thing is as a DJ, wouldn't you be embarrassed to be the nth person to play a tune in one night? When I was running a night at Uni me and my friends would talk about what tunes we were running to try to cut down on that sort of thing. If a track did get played twice in a night (and...

It's just this years Au Seve innit. But you can't blame massive tunes for getting overplayed, you have to blame lazy DJs who try to rely on the tune's bigness without trying to bring something to it in terms of their selection around it or mixing. At the peak of Au Seve wearout I went to 2:31...

It's pretty damn poor. It's kind of perfect though, cause it's not even bad enough to be obviously novelty or a joke, just super mediocre. Disagree re the original! Great mix of pop/underground sensibilities. Feeling the remix though!

New mix!!!! First one in f$$king ages lol. Jackin, a couple of shuffle/deep-tech bits, some old 4x4 garage danger. Quite happy with it, but it's all one take so don't watch some of them clangers!

"In the process of signing that to a big big label lad" - Nick Hannam on You Want Me. You heard it hear first.

What I think's interesting about the Lorenzo phenomena is that it really proves what a lot of people say about dance music today wrong. People say that with Logic and that, anyone can make really high quality sounding tracks, but it's not true. There's a richness and fullness to Lorenzo's...

Yeah, when you consider the sales (any track with Lorenzo in the title is near certain to make up the sales on bigtunes, and Loz doesn't take a cut) + when you see how it gets DJs with practically no production skills of their own big hits which gets them bookings across the north and midlands...

You pay him £200, book some studio time with him a few months in advance, and then he bashes a track out in a few hours. It's why I've found he's quite generous and forthcoming with promos, whereas the people he engineers for aren't...

For me there was never any question of rebelling against my parents (and here I guess I mean my dad's, as he was much more into it) music, as it was all pretty good, back in the mid 00s when I was mostly into new indie and old rock, my dad enjoyed a lot of what I would play him, but just laughed...

XXXactly! Regardless of all the questions of novelty and innovation and all the critical stuff, jackin just keeps on throwing up so many bangers. New darkside danger from Tom Shorterz and Lorenzo: It's got a nice mechanical techy thing going on. Same bouncy electro bass as that iLL Phil & Loz...

My mum has quite an acclectic/weird but definitely uncool taste in music. Lots of soundtracks, Yes, Scritti-Politti, Bod Dylan. But what we (me and my brothers and sisters) got growing up was lots of campy 60s pop complations in the car and lots of vocal jazz. My dad was a punk and has a great...

New TG TZ and LOZ is a fucking BANGER. BANG. So tracky is actually does remind me of the Chicago jackin' stuff This is why I love this stufff. Insta-classic? Tune of the year? Up there with Hybrid Theory's remix of Skank Shorterz - Wot U Do Tom Garnet + Loz - Trouble

Heya! Nice to (internet) meet you! Yeah! I'm playing somewhere this Sunday, not see the details but I'll let you know when I do! But the one you really should make it down to is night hunter at Heavy Sick Zero in Nakano next Saturday. One of the best sounds systems in Tokyo, really weighty...

It's a great idea! As is this mix by Tom Garnet: 70 tracks in 80 minutes! Which is nice because I often feel that jackin mixes are too slow, too housey, lots of mice fast mixing here.

Yo for the record I'm not saying it would! For what it's worth I got linked to it from Tom Zanetti's facebook :cool: so it's probably played out at jackin raves, even though it's definitely not jackin...

It's really difficult to pin down who exactly the audience of jackin is. When you go to 2:31 everyone's dressed pretty hipster/studenty, when when you chat to people they all seem to have pretty normal service jobs and that. Also I get the vibe that shuffle is more of a black thing than jackin...

Is it!?!?!?!?! that's mental!!! Big things gwarn with Jackin right now!! Would love to see a Cause & Affect / Lorenzo EP on wax. Maybe someone like UTTU could be the ones to do it... In other words, I linked Jambie this track http://www.bigtunesmp3.co.uk/tunes/ragga-trip-by-underheadz/ Which...
