    Dubstep+Crunk+Electro+Broken Beat at once?

    My style is mixing up house, breakbeat, occasionally grime and other stuff and if you get it right then people don't realise what genre they are listening to. Helps to play at least two and preferably three hours or more for best results imo. I've also been to nights that start of with hip hop...

    Free Culture By Lawrence Lessig

    Half way through this book at the moment (hard copy from the library). Highly recommended and very relevant with regard to how the internet is affecting creativity

    Name that Grime Tune!

    I've got the straight remix with shizzle, fresh and napper and it is virtually the same vocals as on the cha version. The straight remix with them on is probably one of my favourite bits of grime vinyl I own and I've had it for a while which is why I prefer that over the cha version (although...

    questions you are dying to ask but are too scared to b/c of music nerd cred?

    I agree with all of what you say h-crimm. I think the "ramming down throats" thing comes from my generation having seen influence and coverage go from nothing to where it is today and it now seeming like whenever I turn on a mainstream media device such as radio or television its there...

    questions you are dying to ask but are too scared to b/c of music nerd cred?

    I find that weird. If you don't like going down on a girl fair enough but don't go around taking the piss out of people who do. Then again I think it is mainly schoolkids on rwd forum who go on about the 'Bow Cats' thing.

    questions you are dying to ask but are too scared to b/c of music nerd cred?

    I think resentment towards homosexuals will always be there as long as we take the piss out of fat people or anyone with anything different. Irvine Welsh in his book 'Porno' summed it up for me by saying "its just who you fancy". I find talk of "being born gay" and suchlike difficult to accept...

    Kray Twinz

    Sounds to me like Logan is saying that Low Deep did produce Str8 Flush and then sold everything including the credit of creation to the Kray Twins for their more commercial excursion with the beat and launch into top producer type territory. Perhaps he is not being straight with his answer...

    Gorillaz

    'Dare' is one of my favourite tunes this year. Didn't like the first single but have listened to the clips on Juno of the rest of it and sounds interesting.

    DJ Top 100 2005

    I haven't heard much Slimzee this year at all but he still has some of the baddest dubs. His mixing style I personally find quite refreshing amongst the Grime crew - he plays like a rave DJ with more of a flowing progress or journey to his sets than the Dancehally start and stopping style.

    grime going bourgeois

    It shouldn't do imo. Good music is class-less. Good musicians and producers understand everyone feels emotion and at root have similar hopes, problems and ideas. The minute someone makes music which is only for certain groups they have taken the first step down a dead end.

    grime going bourgeois

    I'm not sure. Kano got cancelled but to be honest I get the feeling its almost a publicity stunt or at least it will benefit Kano and his record company as though it were one so I'm sure they're not totally unhappy. You can put on nights anywhere if you try hard enough.

    grime going bourgeois

    People need to stop worrying about what class or colour or weight or anything else they are and try and be happy with their lot. You find more wealthy people putting on the raves but thats how its generally always been if you look back at the promoters of Fantazia, Obsession etc. Today people...

    do you need to be an expert in dance music to 'get' grime?

    People think Grime is crumbling because Shake A Leg didn't do as well as hoped in the charts. The reality is that there is now more events going on than ever before and MCs and DJs will hopefully stop waiting around for the record contract now and get out in the clubs where they should be. I...

    Black slang in the pink

    I agree. Although there is some mistakes in that piece I think it does reflect a growing take-up of this style of slang amongst all classes.
