*throaty whisper* This boy.... *chuckle* Absolutely mind-blowing....

That's just made me laugh a lot, read it in her voice as well

the riko tune is the best thing on it.

seems like the idea of having to make an album caused him to go more for 'ambience' which makes a lot of it seem a bit light on ideas - felt like there was quite a lot of padding out going on.

also, i cant help thinking the whole mourning for pirate radio/elegaic tribute thing is a bit rinsed out right now, even though i am still a sucker for it, and this is hardly the worst offender. there is something about using grime mc-ing which was never about nostalgia (for the most part) or that kind of sentiment which makes the marriage of those two things a bit weird for me.

You can tell I was a routine listener.

Nothing to be ashamed of dude, her shows were great. Living in a small town in Scotland years ago late night Radio 1 was one of the only ways for me to find out about awesome electronic music

The style worn thin for me after a while, I think I'm too cynical for her really.

I regret nothing... Except the point in her career where she kept hyping Blue Daisy and I'm like "... Ok, this is it for me." I think I did Benji B a couple times after that, but by then, I learned how to tune in on Rinse and it was a wrap.

When she was really into Big Beat (and, um, maybe I was as well) she said similar things about Lo Fidelity All Stars and that was when I had to give up for a bit until the Dubstep wars Era. And then again shortly afterwards

Keep trying Rinse but all the shout outs put me off but I do enjoy Clairvoyants, Scratcha & Surgeon. Never really gone back to Radio 1 for anything, listened to the first Skream & Benga, big mistake.

I like it alot (and that's coming from a post-grime/dubstepblahblah sceptic)

Yeah me too. At least half of it's really good. There are a couple of tracks where the grime samples get a bit annoying - I prefer them not used in the obvious "split the sample in.....half" way. But the track with Riko is really good, and so's the one with Parris
