    Moombah-ton/core/soul/shit

    That's because it is X-D Getting quite into this belatedly last year, but like so many things, it does get a bit predictable... Honorary mention for the original Shabba "Dem Bow" riddim origin: I really like this one from Poland: And this... And this, which totally split our lot when my...

    New Jersey Club

    Right... Philly - This guy https://soundcloud.com/djgetem & DJ Go Hard Sliink - loads of it but I've not yet mentioned "Emergency" (the one that drew me in - ), & Just come across this one as well - quality! Also really like this:

    Da Crunked Up Southern Rap thread

    Right...I did some throwback golden age hip hop progs on net radio recently & was saying it was cos I've gone off modern hip hop years ago due to the wall-to-wall hoe-slappin', but of course the production is often ace & sometimes they just get in yr head & the turn of phrase makes you laugh, so...

    Da Crunked Up Southern Rap thread

    Has this thread been superceded by any others? Bumping it so I can come back & ask complicated questions sometime soon about records that all revolve around 'hoes' & what the artists would like to do to them :-/

    wileys devils mixes

    I've also been thinking how the devil mix stuff needs putting out again & how the demand must surely be there. From the odd interview, post etc & looking at his sprawling catalogue on Discogs, I think Wiley, much more than any other garage guy, seems to have that reggae mentality about releases...

    the Change of Heart Thread

    My 'last genres to succumb to' in the 90s as I was growing up were opera (just my dad's prejudices), happy hardcore (meeting other people I liked who liked it helped) & country (a full album of Jimmie Rodgers & Hank Williams apiece did the trick). Most of my changes of heart these days are...

    New Jersey Club

    Sadly not re recent mixes. I haven't even really listened to any mixes of it (how the hell do you even mix em?! They're all about 2 mins long!). I've just done the same as you suggested way upthread - hoovered up all the free individual track downloads on soundcloud & then given up a bit through...

    New Jersey Club

    Wanted to bump this as I've fallen off checking this forum regularly (how could I?!) & I have been well into this stuff the last year or so. I would agree Brick Bandits & Philly stuff specifically very good. In particular the aforementioned Sliink, Mike Gip & Jayhood. Mike Gip's Sister Nancy...

    Ragga House

    I thought this thread was gonna be about stuff like this, which I love & will happily post loads more examples of if people are remotely interested! http://www.discogs.com/Moody-BoysIntroduce-Screamer-What-Is-Dub/master/44902

    soca

    I also rate "Palance" (of course) & some of the bouyon (still getting my head round who to look out for bouyon-wise but Benz is OK & there's one on soundcloud by GWC Ghost just called "More Bouyon" that I really rate even though it's obviously unfinished). Some other relatively obvious soca...

    Bleeps and Bass

    Apologies if this is posted elsewhere, but I've found this encyclopedic discogs list very useful for finding obscure bleep tunes: http://www.discogs.com/lists/The-Ultimate-Breaks-Bass-And-Bleeps-List/11786

    The Screwed & Chopped thread

    I don't know if this has been covered elsewhere on the forum, but I really rate this album from 2010 - its obviously not 'proper' screwed & chopped, but I think the influence is genuinely there - there is other stuff sorta similar to this in the 'witch house' vicinity, but I think this is way...

    Shuffling / House Music / Cutting Shapes

    Hi Back after a very very long period just lurking! Drawn here by the Wire article, which intrigued me re: shuffling. I have to say that although if I squint I can see the Footwork connection, the Carlton Banks comments seem to hit the nail on the head - more of a refreshingly relaxed "I'm...

    20 best reggae 45s of the noughties

    All three Uncarved blogs referred to on this thread are excellent reading (as always)...cheers. I too was pleased that I had paid attention a bit better than I thought I had this decade. Really pleased to see VC in there, slightly disappointed not to see Chezidek's lovely "Leave the Trees". I...

    Unusual types of gramophone records

    Recent thread elsewhere that I liked on a similar subject...more stuff on cover art etc (& some nice pix), but good stuff on pressings etc too... http://www.blackpoolbands.co.uk/forums/thread.asp?ID=126038

    Introspective/Melancholy Dancehall

    I seem to remember some good ones on the same riddim as The Bombing, but I can't be bothered to go in the loft for the tape...from memory, I think Goldfinger said there was someone's version called "The Robbing" which was too controversial to play?!

    Introspective/Melancholy Dancehall

    This one by TOK is surely one of the mawko-reggae moments of the decade?!
