hud mo remix of tweet - oops.... oh my! absolutely mint. only just heard that Debruit ep yesterday too, very similar styles, well worth a listen.
what with leila doing new stuff and portishead doing a new album is this a kind of trip hop mark 2 - certainly the spiralling mohawke and rustie things are well out there and trippy, lotus is well stoned journey biz and gaslamp etc, is reconfigured psychedelia///
from one angle anyway.
anything trippy = trip hop? not too sure about this, it seems to me like quite a stretch. it kinda reminds me of what everyone was saying about the 'nuum a few months ago; can't really group a wide range of artists into a convenient sentence...
it feels to me (esp with the way labels like hyperdub are going) that the whole 'underground' scene is incredibly energized at the moment- for the first time in what must be years there are a wealth of genres that are chucking out so much inventive shit that aren't necessarily sonically related but somehow also complement each other. In the peak of jungle all i cared about was jungle- nothing else compared but with PP on wednesday and Night Slugs in camberwell tonight- the pleasures are huge, the sonics disparate.
Maybe the link, the hook is simply BASS- dubstep obviously foregrounds this but bass is allowing all manner of beats to work in complement.
I guess i'm just trying to say- i"M FUCKING EXCITED right now![]()
cos of the internet in a way isn't it.
^ flylo's own stuff sounded absolutely brutal on the PP system.. was wicked. so much energy.

definitely does mean good in this context, but I used it because it seemed an apt way to describe how visceral the sound was.. basslines coursing through you, but in a far less tempered way than in something like dubstep these days - it was raw, and felt violent
I come from london, it means good though in my circles. Not sure how widespread it is, but you could tell what I was talking about if this were in person from the way I would say it
yeah that tune is jokes! i was repping that for a while last year
