taking it on their terms/with a massive pinch of indie salt etc.. they also got the wrong bright eyes album. lifted is far far superior. i am also perennially amused by comments demanding the inclusion of some utter nonsense: 'wot no ikara colt/campag velocet?!?!?!' have been mine and...

this scared the freaking bejesus out of me the first time i bought them, as no-one had told me. i was cleaning the sand off under the tap, and then noticed the thing sort of pulsing.. i screamed like a girl, dropped it, and jumped about a foot in the air. housemates came running in to see if i'd...

don't anyone make the mistake of confusing it with Carmen by Clapham Common station, which gave me food poisoning once and then wouldn't admit it/refund me after my night of vomiting hell.

i just absolutely fucking love this story - trying to imagine just how awesome that would've been. i've seen some ibiza-esque responses to the track now, hands in the air type stuff.. but 40k people!!!! fuck. i'll re post the obvious response from my twitter: which is why, mr reynolds...

lol. i only got in in time for the heatwave show alas. btw so what was trim saying? any new sets with him on? what's the release schedule?

i can't place the origin of the phrase 'i'll dun your dance'. i think it's bun-u's sig.. google is proving unhelpful, youtube just has some crap d-list grime tune of that name.. HELP ME

why so? as to 'just not having a forum', i guess the level of frustration with dubstepforum, the natural home of most of the proponents, probably sort of propelled them into it. don't get me wrong, i'm unsure about where it's leading myself, but i can see why they made the break. edit: for the...

subdub has an annual skanking competition? what are the criteria? who are the judges? tell me more!

yeah dubstep people always talk about skanking, but i'm not sure skanking in any assertive way is what most dubstep ravers have been doing. much more shuffly, on the whole. albeit with some knee action, depending on the dancer's individual proclivities. what happened when people played burial...

so darkstar are covering the human league then! http://www.factmagazine.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3853&Itemid=26 also i wrote something about hyperdub 5 for the grau which probably won't be news to any of you, though i don't think anyone's posted it...

:( it's been my favourite night of the year, night slugs excepted natch

oh right, would it be thursday yeah? i really hope so!

thank you so much for this tip off, nduja looks amazing. it sounds a bit like sobrasoda? if i've spelt that right? like a thick chorizo-esque pork and saffron meat paste almost. i've only ever spread that on bread, rather than cook with it, but it's bold and rich and very addictive. anyway...

OOH. SHIT. DAMN.

this seems an appropriate point to post this - the transcript of my interview with alex from the rhythm factory in 07 (for the woofah 'grime vs the met' piece):

the argus billboards are unrivalled.. this is also brilliant http://takeaweirdbreak.blogspot.com/

agreed. he was great at goldsmiths on saturday. man that was a weird, inebriated night. good though.. highlights were a room full of teenagers going MENCKLE for 'hyph mngo' as the closer to joy orbison's set (more inspired uneducated guesswork from the anti-empiricist brigade on that one).. and...

i just went to hungary for the week to play for the england writers team against the hungarian writers team.. we got a very well-earned 1-1 draw. all of the hungarian writers we were drinking with after the game were great, they have little to no confidence in their (real) national side though...

'the parmo goes national' on the grau food blog http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/wordofmouth/2009/oct/09/parmo-regional-snack-foods only about three months after i went there. do feel free to get involved in the comments obv :)

i just say this in case anyone has missed it: the-dream album is beyond brilliant. if you added up all the songs i've listened to by everyone else this year it would probably still be less than the-dream. he also gets the award for drop of the year.. terrible sound quality here, find a full...
