yh, its youngers juke. These kids grew up listening to Gant Man mixtapes, DJ Clent & DJ Rashad trax & goin under-age dances with Baddmixx spinning. So now DJ Nate n them are making pure footwork rythms without the 'formal' education of goin thru ghetto house etc. like the older generation...

:D This must be the grime equivalent of a 1st year apprentice being told to go & ask someone for a “long weight”

Yes! This tune is F'd!!! Would love to know who built it!

I hear loads of 808s, hats, maracas & over compressed, punchy kicks (not ATL Rap Bass 1s) as well as the ultra digital, super tight 808 snares... but no 909s "Slightly Minimal!!!" It doesn't sound overly technoy to me tho... that Spyro beat sounds like grime bass kuduro! "You've looked...

I live in a world where Blaze exists & DJ Tiesto does not. P.S. THIS!!!

There was a problem with the pressing / plant from what I heard. I don't fuck with uptown anymore, I know I kinda lose in that deal, but I've got better shit to worry about & I'd rather spend my money with people that don't act like pricks :slanted:

Elements Of Life!!! Dennis Ferrer Essential Mix & my thoughts on it here. Not really Gospel House, but def. uplifting :cool:

Oh fr sure, some SA house is almost indistinguishable from any Defected or Ibadan type stuff & yh those drums have always been there, I shoulda said interesting not important, wrong word really. The thing I find kinda fascinating on that afrodesia site is all the genre names 'Afro-electro'...

What The... I bet the Roland techs that did the orig presets & PCB layouts etc. are about as disinterested in what was done to / with their creations as the drummer from The Winstons was. years ago I saw a site that broke down the 'hoover bass' & had lil mp3s of each variation. To me 'Mentasm'...

Fidget for me is House music made by guys that grew up listening to Rap. Not much use as a definition in terms of it has this n that element to it, but for me, the underlying structure/thrust of Fidget is a cut n paste, pause tape edit thing. Just like Club music in Baltimore was House music...

http://www.afrodesiamp3.com For the South African House musics! So much great stuff. Sites run by SA ex-pats livin in Nth. America. Good Quality tunes & great service :cool:

My view is that people being 'purist' about house aren't actually being purist at all, but are holding up some false image of how they'd like house music to be percieved. At this point in time house music can be anything anyone wants it to be! F' the snobs! I don't think grime should slow down...

I think this is happning, the Lil Silva tune with the mad echoed out timbales fr one! & the dirty/grimey horns being used in alotta tunes, which are soooo far removed from the 'tastefull sax sample's of slick house! The synergy b'tween 'funky' & new school South African House is nuts! This is...

'Marcus A Big Softy Really' doesn't really have the same ring to it tho does it :D & if you put it in a computer & speed it up about 12bpm it sounds like Grime! 3 for the price of 1! Dunno if Ron Hardy (RIP) would have agreed with that u kno... Marshell Jefferson only made one tune with an...

Nah, I rekon you got it about right. Not to say that people with hi tech skills don't also have something musical to contribute, its just people that get OCD about mixdowns n that often lose sight of the music. Its also really easy for people to 'hide' behind 'science' & get away with average...

Work it! Work it!!! http://flaminhotz.com/JUKE/ junoD/L has alotta stuff for sale, databass, juke trax. Do a search for 'juke' & cue up all the results, you'll need to shift thru alot of 'so so' stuff for the gems. Alot of the DJ Rashad trax are really just DJ tools, but theres some ill DJ...

I thought that this had happened already... maybe I'm wrong. 'Say No To Wonky' ? ( Edit; Elgato beat me to it ;) ) Lotta, lotta presets. Korg Triton horn patches everywhere! :D Lots of Reason (Gabryelle Strings !!!) I love it!!! I'd much rather actual tunes than a souless parade of perfect...

Considering his old shows on Rinse, I'd be checking for a pulse! If Mak10 can stir him up abit & re-light that fire. Get him selecting & mixing house the way he did grime... oh my. His shows were nuts! Competition lines, chatting with listeners over the air, even with no MCs in the studio he...

Check out the DJ Mystery tunes as well & 'Green Light' by Footsteps, big tune! 'Quicktime' by DJ Naughty went up yesterday as well for anyone that didn't get it on 12" The guys running ukfunky.com are tip-top as well! Can't recommend the store enough!! :cool:

that would be Geeneus' raison d'etre yh? I'm sure there are as many reasons for the shift to funky as there are 'ex-grime' crew in funky. Fierce competition is nothing new in House either, Lil' Louis used to pressure Marshell Jefferson into not passing his tunes out to any other DJs cos they...
