Funky/London/UK House
still waiting for mine too. is it just me or have new funky releases just come to a standstill? haven't seen anything new on uptown since the african warrior / d malice pre-orders went up. so frustrating when you hear so many new tunes on mixes all the time, but can't get your hands on any of 'em... always the way. I'm praying yellow tail gets a release soon.
Has anyone heard anything at all from Uptown about the D Malice vinyl?
It's getting a bit silly nowand I've had no reply to enquiries.
i bugged em and got a generic 'not in stock yet' notice, pretty rubbish behaviour.
that's after going in there literally 4 weeks ago and they told me it would be in the next day.

uptown have been evicted although the online thing is still going. I would expect further delays as a result though.
allegedly, a lot of stock is still inside the old shop. I don't know enough to know if that's true or not, mind; Avalanche Music Hut went on an online slander spree yesterday.

yeah i can see all of that. there's very percussive garage-related stuff that, slowed down, i've been finding fits alright in the mix, though the feel is different. i'm also happy with a cleaner slate at the moment too though just to see what happens

Hmmm... maybe I should just claim my money back through Paypal and forget it?
My main concern is that they took full payment straight away and have just sat on my order (for 5 records) for 3 weeks because one of the records is out of stock.
They need to just send out the others and eat the cost of posting out the D Malice on its own at a later date. Or at the very least tell people what's going on / reply to enquiries.
oh my god that is terrible! when did that happen?!

Thursday I think. They're relocating somewhere on D'Arblay street.
uptown records have been evicted?
really that's another one that's bit the dust in the west end then.
westminster council really should learn...
well if that's a case the poor fuckers can keep my tenner.
really, well that's good but things must be tough.
them and black market and dark and cold should form some kind of urban music co-op.
yeah i went past uptown today. there was some notice from the landlord on the window - looks like they havent been making their rent. the guy at blackmarket said they might be getting more funky stuff though as theyre no longer around.
but in the meantime, that means if i want those funky 12s it works out to be almost 40 quid just for four 12s including p&p! not sure if i can do that right now :slanted:
