I'm surprised at all this drama over Zomby though. Perhaps it's because he's 'big' or something?
All I'm saying is, for all the Zomby detractors, I don't see how he's any worse than say... Ikonika. Call me crazy, but she fell off HARD after the first single. All of these little synthesizer swoons beneath pretty dinky rhythms. The Phonelines (VIP) brought me back, but still... I'd say her stuff is more redundant. But probably because she's quiet, less of a prima dona than Zomby, she gets less critique.
Na same here, they don't have the rhythmic oomph to move people in a club for the most part, his tunes seem to occupy a place where they can clearly slip in alongside garage or dubstep but have 'spaced out' a bit more, but still aren't headfuck enough to keep me interested full length, they get an initial 'wtf' but wear out quickly.. his drums are a bit flat tbh.. still i do enjoy a splash of his stuff dropped when i'm out, Strange Fruit, Float and the Rustie remix.

Here -i threw a cheese and onion sandwich at their lead singer once. sorry wrong thread, but should that be in the 'moments of glory' or 'moments of shame' thread?
grabbed mount kimbie's EP "scratch on glass" today
fucking awesome
reminds me why i first got into dubstep, it sounds like something from outer space
i might be missing the point but a lot of this sort of stuff just sounds either old (like late 90s) or like burial/fly lo (so also old and late 90s lol).
The Ikonika tune Brackles has been playing recently is wicked... I have to admit I thought the Township Funk remix was shite tho
Hyperdub LP sounds great, nice to have some Mala on wax again...
Quite a lot of shit around at the mo: Untold, Pearson Sound, Falty DL, Joker, Shortstuff, Silkie...
Will be interesting to see if the hype around this stuff translates to big room airings, or if the big DJs will just keep chugging away with dry metallic wobblers.
This is in my top 3 2009 tunes
Anaconda is pretty big with the euro electro lot (Crookers, Boys Noize etc) and Joker's getting played out by the post indie dance lot (Erol Alkan, Simian Mobile Disco).
