    bassline house

    Cool, Chuu and lKoss, much appreciated. I'd assumed that virgo and mr. v were the same but had seen both referenced so wanted to be sure. some serious tunage, there, damn

    bassline house

    Enjoyed this one a LOT. Do you know who it is? Or which mix you chopped it out of (i.e., from garagedownloads etc)? If so, I could hunt down the tracklist myself, not asking you to do my homework for me :D. Another question for you or lKoss (or anyone else). Are Mr. V and Virgo the same, or...

    Burial "Untrue"

    Funny you should mention that, noel, I amused myself last week for a couple of hours entertaining the same thought (being a big fan of both burial and ben). :D Even went back and read the interviews for fun to see, but the Burial quotes about not being a DJ, not knowing producers, and not...

    nice distinction you make there

    The Death of Stylus

    I'd been told that it will still continue, just that the writers will maintain a version of it themselves. Is this not correct? People around here (e.g., Gavin) will be able to provide a better answer, obv . . .

    Ayn Rand and a Discussion of Objectivism

    Yes indeed. Homeric Greek also shows a final -nu in places. In Doric Greek (e.g., Laconian) there's a final nu and eta, even. This is the right answer. The same word shown here in Greek and Latin has cognates for the same item in Sanskrit, Avestan, Old Latin, Hittite, Old Church Slavonic...

    Modern d'n'b is rubbish - tune ID and a moan from an old man

    yes of course there was the press release, much discussed on sc and elsewhere, and well known to anyone who cares about jungle, but there's a difference between press releases and discussion, no? I mean, come on, the post was a sincere & polite gesture welcoming the guy.

    Modern d'n'b is rubbish - tune ID and a moan from an old man

    Welcome, Gerald. I'd guess that you'll find many folks around here who admire your work very much and would be very keen to hear your thoughts on the current state of dnb/jungle/music in general.

    this radiohead thing then.

    From TIME.com: "Roughly 12,000 albums are released in an average year, so the announcement late Sunday night that the new Radiohead record, In Rainbows, will be out Oct. 10 is not itself big news. Sure, Radiohead is on a sustained run as the most interesting and innovative band in rock, but...

    Vogue

    I virtually never respond to your posts concerning art or aesthetics because frankly I've never thought them worth replying to. But this one is worth addressing, as it exposes you for the philosophical fraud that you are. You do a nice job of keeping dissensians informed with numerous...

    Woofah issue 1: Reggae/Dubstep/Grime fanzine OUT

    Drum/rhythm knowledge rolling thread

    Your explanation of syncopation is not one that I recognize. It does not require "several rhythms at the same time" (one implied and one actual are sufficient, hence the prefix "syn") (e.g., I can make a syncopated rhythm by clapping my hands, no need for additional rhythms, so long as a basic...

    The Carbon Thread

    Yeah, and so what? Do you believe, endorse, or agree with, Spinella's findings? And if so, on what basis?

    Divas 'n Bass

    Somewhat similar, at least from the point of view of mixing, though not nearly as eerie or moody as the Fanu. I just noticed however that the original post asked for vocals that were songs, not merely samples, so I'm not sure on second thought that either really apply. :o

    humour: media / politics

    Off-topic, but someone needs to point out that Badiou's famous theses are riddled with cliches, as is his essay on the subject and contemporary music, which is even worse - it's like really bad journalism. You can dress up a philosophical system as much as you like, but it's still a system, and...

    Anything giving you fresh inspriation at the moment?

    Did an hour-long interview with Pharoah Sanders by phone last week in preparation for a freelance piece that I'm writing ... not sure that 'inspiring' is really sufficient to describe it.
