yeah i agree completely padraig.. while i feel your respective pain, craner, lichen and crackerjack, if it's getting too much, be more assertive. stop downloading. go for a walk. listen to an old record you know and love. it's easy to feel swamped but at the same time there's no need for...

omg lol. i was there too... as was k-punk apparently, and alex williams too apparently. it was very amusing playing 'spot the writer'. esp when i was standing there with simon, tom lea, alex macpherson, boomnoise, bok bok and others.. were there any normal punters there i wonder, or was it all...

yh i keep getting caught in two minds like this too. my mate was saying the better players respond to those big looping serves that drop in the back corner with a kind of almost-kneeling scoop shot.. haven't tried this yet. as an aside i played at 9pm on friday night (on a whim, ridiculously)...

i listened to this mix pretty much solidly during five days holiday in spain last summer... very fond associations. big up!

he also tried to invent a genre called 'dirty pop' that failed and failed HARD haha

only smaller and indier lol (no bitch-o). they've not had any funky on before afaik.

indulge a cricket dunce would you - are we at a new low and definitely screwed in the ashes or what? actually since i've (again?) acknowledged my cricket dunciness i wish to make a formal complaint: i (sadly) don't really follow cricket for two reasons - we didn't play it at school, and it's...

btw thanks for this! def gonna try it out - just need to gather the ingredients. the problem with me and serrano ham is i actually can't stop myself from eating it. it's my one desert island food tbh. the point being that if i allow myself the luxury of buying any it rarely lasts. i'm not sure i...

finally, i'm still serving sort of half-underarm (45 degrees from the groud if that makes any sense) - does this make me a sort of squash-tard? do i need to try and develop a half-overarm serve too?

i should add that tonight i was at a roots manuva gig, on a press freebie (i was working though, tbf), with several of my mates, a few pints down, dancing away, and all i could think was 'i wish i was playing squash'. that's how addictive this stupid game is.

britannia leisure centre by shoreditch park.. is that a shlep for you? tbh i don't think i'm ready for a little bit yet in any case lol. but soon! ish. i've seen the speed you move on the football pitch remember. i've beaten both kanishk and tan fairly comprehensively now tho, if i can get up to...

hah totally agree, that was my interpretation of how that bizarre and horrible song managed to come about too. i'm afraid i still hate it and what they did with/to d double on it though. the omm hype shows the kind of media people who only take notice of prs/proper labels are going to sit up...

i love how dubstep has a little loop that comes back on itself! lol i don't follow the jacques lu cont one, sorry. someone explain! who made these anyway?? :)

they were all locked to encourage more diverse and more focused threads, except the grime one that got a stay of execution somehow, perhaps through dodgy back-room deals. and then the 'funky' and 'wonky' threads became kind of de facto rolling threads by accident. i don't know about the dubstep...

it is - and a friend of mine from uni just told me he was in the year below me, tho we never knew each other - small world! (hai alex!)

big up anyone recording! just logged on but the football's on so i can't listen and i have to go out in a mo anyway. as a line up of mcs/vocalists that's another intriguing development! btw what's the mak10 uptown cd? can you get it from the shop itself (as opposed to the website)? which is...

okay one more thing before i run out the door: 'the amps were better than the pixies' - discuss. please write on both sides of the paper. if you have a question raise your hand and wait for an invigilator to come to you.

!!! YES !!! it's just as well i have to go out immediately, or i would prob spend all day engaging in a discussion of/mocking/fondly recalling all things twee and indie. is anyone going to the throwing muses atp? i can't face much atp music anymore, but lots of my mates are going.. hmm.

punk rock, dilla and dubstep. none of which are nuum sounds, exactly? so is it any wonder k-punk and reynolds have ignored her? (to the best of my knowledge.) do we think ikonika's music has a 'rude energy'? i'll repeat one bit from my fact article: zomby, ikonika, and joker made some (possibly...

i mean ffs, now i think of it, ikonika's musical background is the Other Kind of Hardcore!!! i think i've finally found the solution... everyone's trying to get us to come up with a new theory, well i've got it, it's called: The Hardcore Continuum (2) and runs from fugazi to ikonika ;)
