nice one

I saw a poster for a night called 'Wonky Pop' with Tinchy Strider and Gary Numan headlining, which led to me to their website, which lead me to this page: http://www.thisiswonky.com/manifesto.php what's going on?

When I'm tired of following tracks/names in the funky/grime/dubstep scene I return to faceless late 90s, early 00s techno. It's a relief listening to stuff you know little about socio-culturally. Also stuff from my bboy phase and computer game soundtracks. Simcity 3000 has some great jazz and...

very interesting

speaking of indistinguishable vocals, anyone know much about the first track by Darkstar in the hypderdub showcase? according to the tracklist it's called Annexe but I can't seem to find any info about it. Is there anywhere where you can hear the whole track? That vocal is haunting me. Edit: it...

No, a council dept but we get lots of phone calls from people and we are knee deep in reference numbers, names, addresses etc

oh, is it? well I still get the idiot version for all the other letters just to add to the phone call gripes: We have a reference number system which goes 2009/xxxx and it annoys me when people say 'two zero zero nine' or ' two double zero nine' when it clearly refers to what year we are in!

I love this show, so much so that I bought the whole box set last year. You're in for an epic journey Mr Baboon :). Seasons 3 and 4 are probably the weakest because of this (relatively speaking) I've introduced the show to my partner who funnily enough is a funeral director himself and he's...

I grew up in Australia so 'Australian Questioning Intonation' (AQI) or upspeak sounds completely normal to me. It takes me some effort when reading discussions like these to imagine what the POV would be to a non-upspeaker. It's hard for me to imagine what "so, uh, last week? i went to a...

I love this simply as a pair of words, but as a name it is genius.

I call it conversation

I cordially accept this tital of Honorary Cuntologist. You can all be fellows. happy to see this thread still has some life in it!

Australian here but with weakened twang due to Philippina mother who speaks with a sort of Asian-American accent and also due to going to an American International school for 2 years in my early childhood. At one point my accent was almost fully American. Since being in the UK people generally...

absolutely dehumanising music for the most human activity perhaps

will that get you RTPI accreditation?

they're all public domain aren't they? It's probably more of a case of disney trying to monopolize our collective memory by pushing their particular branded version of a fairy tale
