What's wrong with that, if they mean 'leading' as in 'most likely to be someone people have heard of/spend money on one day?'

Wasn't it Real Deal that hosted Victoria Aitken's first attempt at hip hop? On that show 'Young, Posh and Loaded', it was one of the funniest things I've ever seen on television.

That's my student paper! We must have the best student grime coverage in the country, we've already interviewed Crazy Titch, Lady Sovereign, Kode 9, and Plasticman, and we reviewed a load of compilations and DVDs.

She just said they make her feel the same way, what's wrong with that?

Yeah, but I think the more you get of one the less you get of the other. Anything you say about a band (like that they're unoriginal) that isn't to do with the music itself, but is merely to do with context, is going to mean you enjoy it less in that pure teenage way, because you're thinking...

Have you ever seen footage of e.g. a Keane festival appearance? There are people screaming and crying and hugging each other and waving banners before the band have even come on. If you ask me, NME-readers have more passion and enthusiasm for their chosen music (undeserving as it mostly is) than...

Cambridge, the paper's called Varsity.

I'm writing an article for my student paper about how people use this word as a licence to do/think anything (e.g. someone at the Student Union organised a 'Colonials and Natives' party, defended it as 'ironic' in the student paper, then later on defended it as 'post-ironic'), can anyone...

Fanu, Seba, Paradox, all that lot? I've already got the Troubled Waters mix CD, I'd like more like that.

I think one of the underlying assumptions here is that it's somehow part of *what grime is* to be a very confusing, abrasive listening experience which will make the vast majority of people turn off their radios in disgust. As soon as an artist comes along who ignores this criterion and makes...

Oh yeah and Dissensus people might like to know that Kele (the lead singer/guitarist) lists Dizzee Rascal as one of his influences.

First great band of the 21st century if you ask me.

We just had a grime night in a college bar here in Cambridge, there can't have been more than twenty people on the dancefloor, and it still managed to get itself closed down early because a fight started! It's like this genre has voodoo powers.

I had that with Radiohead but I'm over it now.

I'm doing the music for a fashion show, I have to find songs for categories including 'circus in the city', 'futuristic' (yeah I know lots of dubstep), 'exotic', 'tribal', 'decadent', 'arcadia', and 'fairytale'. I'd be really grateful if anyone could suggest any songs. If they could yousendit...

I once got a job in that pub but they sacked me very swiftly.

Death in Vegas said in an interview they want their albums to sound like DJ mixes, and they do cross genres but mostly aren't seamlessly mixed. Also 'Out From Out Where' by Amon Tobin is continuous.

MBM, which episode was Relentless?

Whatever people say about her production being derivative or dishonest or whatever, I think she's a far better MC than most of the grime MCs that get all this hype.

Buffy is so, so, so great. Intelligent, exciting, funny, inventive, and occasionally moving. Nothing for years has come close in terms of pure pleasure.
