    Jungle/Drum & Bass - Breaking News, gossip, commentary, etc

    Has anyone been paying attention to the Current Value/Counterstrike/Evol Intent side of things lately? I'm not much of a D'N'B head but this stuff is just.... weird. Like trackier, more streamlined Venetian Snares kind of stuff. Sounds like half gabba, almost happy hardcore repetitive. But...

    Anyone curious about a black metal update of the Big Black sound should check out Anaal Nathrakh's Codex Necro. One word. Intense.

    DUBSTEP- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    This was by no means my idea, I've been listening to Selector Dub U's sets - top quality stuff. I'm an amateur DJ at best, this man knows his stuff.

    DUBSTEP- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    Oh hell, I've been emo, since back in the day. (Hides Sunny Day Real Estate cds) Its just something I (mostly) suppress now.

    DUBSTEP- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    I'm really not that thin skinned, I listen to way too much Southern rap for that. Just bugs me when I find out that people I admire hate my guts on principle.

    DUBSTEP- breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    Partially I'm trying to play Devil's advocate. Trying to look at the established narrative and see if there is anything else I can draw out. For me at least having one of my favorite production teams remix a song which I find slightly abhorrent, like Horsepower did with Elephant Man's Log On...

    that Kode 9 quote about internalising the structure of jungle

    I posted some links to a couple of mixes on my blog. ===> http://patternloader.blogspot.com/2006/09/new-blood.html Some old stuff, and links to a couple of mixes by some newer producers. Geiom in particular is making some rhythmically interesting stuff, and Kode 9 was the first Dj I've...

    Hip-Hop - breaking news, gossip, slander, lies etc

    I'm curious if anyones got any opinions about Papoose? Been listening to a couple of the Street Sweeper mixtapes that Kay Slay puts out and I've definitely got to hand it to him, the man's got skill. I'm not sure if he is the saviour of NY rap like he would like us to believe but there is...

    "easy" free jazz

    I was just listening to some Art Ensemble of Chicago, have you heard Certain Blacks? Rides an interesting line between free improvisation and groove.

    Gutterbreakz Blog

    Well I've posted on the Dubstep Forum since literally its first day and almost everyone on that thread seems to have only been there for a month or two. As far as I can tell the majority of them are Dogs On Acid people. Which sucks, because drum and bass politicking is the last thing I wanted...

    Grime-where did it all go wrong?

    No, but maybe as an extension of the sound system culture that started in Jamaica and took two different forms, one in the UK with hardcore and the other in New York with hiphop. Maybe, its still a strange little mutant of sound as far as I'm concerned. And I like strange mutants.

    Grime-where did it all go wrong?

    Yeah well, it isn't always like that. Sometimes freestyle battles don't lead to random bullshit. That was the whole fucking point of hiphop to begin with, to be able to prove your superiority without resorting to violence! Thats why rival crews would breakdance, to show off! Do I even have...

    Grime-where did it all go wrong?

    Basically at this point I'm willing to admit that I don't understand enough about the culture over in London to "get" grime. I'm willing to sit back and let whatever is going to happen, happen. So yeah I'm fucking off back to ILX, have fun Logan. Its a UK thing, I'm going back to listening...

    Grime-where did it all go wrong?

    Well you weren't joking about Sharky Major, thats for sure. I only have like one really good Nasty Set, and that blows 99% of American Hiphop out of the water. I was so obsessed with Boy in Da Corner, loved Walkin on Thin Ice. Somedays I just ask myself if I'm lookin hard enough. We need...

    Grime-where did it all go wrong?

    Dunno exactly. I started losing interest when it switched from rapid MCing to a bunch of teenagers yelling just random shit hoping that it would catch on like D Double's "mrui mrui" thing. So I guess sometime after that Forward tune came out. So basically I'm blaming this all on Napper...

    Thanks Edward, those Frankie Knuckles tracks are exactly the kind of thing I was looking for. Man, if I wasn't so poor this would be a lot easier stuff to find!
