Yeah right? when did anyone put on nice legal rave :( nearly impossible once you've pleased the council and pigs and their interpretation of the licensing act. The Glade festival ,which is huge, struggles harder & harder each year. There's no obvious connection with hoxton Nu-rave and the...

i'd wager most people wouldn't notice even if it was 128K or lower :D

I don't think Jungle ever really went away, maybe it did a bit in '98/99 but what with the breakcore mashups and general retro rave atmosphere it seems to be ever present. The problem with Jungle is not the music itself but the fact that the 'Amen' sample has been chewed on so much that I for...

not sure i'm diggin this one, look what she says about herself, nice juicy sample in the first 2 bars thoughb:p

Not knowing alot about the bard I was intrigued. Yes you could cut out some the fillin celebs but it was worth hearing Marc Almond dismaying at his later stuff:p You had to have Eno & Bowie there as they were at one point very near to his world. I thought the insights into the recording...

agree with alot of the above, it was great to see alot of that footage especially the Hendrix moments. What annoyed me was how UK centric it was. It was as if the west-coast scene didn't exist? no mention of the Grateful Dead for example.

See website for more info, the exhibition features the London Breakbeat Orchestra on saturday, huge space, worth popping in too, stuff going up throughout the next few days Temporary Autonomous Art week> [T]emporary [A]utonomous [A]rt [LONDON] 4 days of gallery, performance, music, film and...

There was a thread like this a few years ago on another well known bulletin board. It was so good that you learnt more about London in those few pages than any guide book would tell you ;) dodgy pubs ? I always find it amusing that pubs take years to throw off their bad image after a couple...

I agree entirely, how about chatin about the ones that have since closed :) Anyone remember the Greenleaf on Landor Rd SW9 , takeaway place that if u decided (or knew) to go to the toilet led in to a dark alley with a little dance room about the size of a small bedroom, a rig up to the...

Weird, reminds me of J Dilla and that german dancehall act Seeed

cracking thread, i always think 'worst' type ideas are great for exploring the real extraordinariness of human existence and what others class as 'fun.' Perhaps the worse one I went to was in Norwich, this secondary school teacher in his late 20s had invited his class to what was a cosy little...

looks great, hope to make it down.......

i'd agree about the dynaudio ones, if you must go for powered then perhaps the Tannoy ones would do, i'd avoid Alesis , they don't stand up nearly as well. With all these things it's what works well in your room. That may not be the best or most expensive.

Crimes against music If anyone was in any doubt about the savageness of his crimes see here Adagio killer I'm sure Samuel Barber would be turning in his grave and no thanks to that other twat William Orbit.

Couldn't agree more. I find this a media problem rather than a US gun problem, they live with their laws and ain't gonna change, but why all the media coverage. Nothing is going to change , why are US lives so worthy of blanket coverage? Given the death toll in Iraq today and the countless...

search'n'destroy, toasty, warlock, black mass plastics, darquain all pushing what i think of as 'breakstep' rag'n'bone

That Mark Salud clip is classic. I mean how did he manage to it get so out of tune ?:p

I saw them live in the bowls of the good ship 'Stubnitz' as part of the Version festival back in '05, really excellent. They understand the notion of live electronics in a way that Autechre spectularly don't. The audience are really locked into something and there's a physicality to the...

It's a risk for sure but if you've ever milled about brick lane recently you'll know it's where everyone is at. It's been going on for a while but there's a huge cultural shift away from the westend & W11 where rents have escalated. It seems that every savy tourist and hipster is ther in some...

you mean a bit like this then>
