adam- I couldn't get to college today so no slsk. but should be there tomorrow (if you did compile some ruff squad stuff, no probs if you haven't etc etc).

Jess it's that track on the Jammer mix-cd with the keyboard solo. I'm revealing my shameful neo-prog roots here btw.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Saturday, 28 February 2004 00:34 (twenty years ago) link

yeah, it's all turned to shit. come back in a years time when they've realised no ones listening

― l'''''''', Saturday, 28 February 2004 01:09 (twenty years ago) link

So, I finally got to hear some more j2k stuff. Interesting. Also:

I love girls, I love sex, I love cash, I love cheques

Is this Streetfighter? It sounds very familiar.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Monday, 1 March 2004 20:20 (twenty years ago) link

And I ask again: any sign of the Target mix?

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Monday, 1 March 2004 20:21 (twenty years ago) link

isn't that the roll deep mystery song, adam?

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 1 March 2004 20:23 (twenty years ago) link

start of the deja 92.3, 23rd dec set has it. 'i love girls, i love sex, i love cash, i love cheques' - dizzee rascal.

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 1 March 2004 20:23 (twenty years ago) link

Yes, it is on the Deja set. A mystery, you say?

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Monday, 1 March 2004 20:25 (twenty years ago) link

I was reading one of my yat's old Face magazines from bout last year and it had all these fashion shoots with East Co and Nasty. Nicky Slim Ting had one of those wicked old skool adidas tracksuits on and dee looked dap in purple velour and he had these fucking huge copter shades!

― scg, Monday, 1 March 2004 20:27 (twenty years ago) link

I'm sure luka id's it up the thread as "i love" or something bt I always call it "the mystery roll deep song". it's a cracker tho.

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 1 March 2004 20:28 (twenty years ago) link

hey adam thanks for putting the ruff sqwad mix togther. you er, rock.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Monday, 1 March 2004 20:49 (twenty years ago) link

mm target mix is out. i'll give it a listen in a bit and let you know what the grinch thinks

― prima fassy (mwah), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:13 (twenty years ago) link

is this a CD release and what is "mm"? can it be found on slsk?

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:15 (twenty years ago) link

yes, cd. dunno about slsk. mm is me going "mm". bit like "yes" i suppose

― prima fassy (mwah), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:19 (twenty years ago) link

the cd is sort of in light green and grey which is always how i saw target musik anyway which is pleasing and augurs less aggro i hope. looks a bit like a footlocker version of the global communication cd!

― prima_fassy (mwah), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:21 (twenty years ago) link

Zemko, where did you get it from? I checked in with Uptown and Blackmarket and they didn't seem to know what I was talking about.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:23 (twenty years ago) link

uptown. hee hee did u phone this afternoon, i may have witnessed yr call!

― prima fassy (mwah), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:28 (twenty years ago) link

mm, thanks pf!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:30 (twenty years ago) link

also, is there a more specific title than "target mix"?

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:31 (twenty years ago) link

No, I emailed. Gotta watch those long-distance rates.

Spencer - It's called "Aim High".

oh no it's lilac! mental. intro first tune. organic tooting then gods gift shouting, ow! oh some africany drums. pleasant. already better than lord of the decks 2, i dont wanna sound like a dick but i didnt like that much. why am i talking like this! ok the intro was this donaeo tune... bad singing. something about 'racist constables', sigh uh huh ok wassup etc

― prima fassy (mwah), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:37 (twenty years ago) link

No, I only like about half of LOTD 2 also, and mostly stuff I'd heard before like Esco, Doogz, and NASTY.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:42 (twenty years ago) link

― prima fassy (mwah), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:46 (twenty years ago) link

Vivid.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Monday, 1 March 2004 23:51 (twenty years ago) link

i like poor old donaeo's singing better than his MCing and his spliff smoking farmer impressions. it's not that bad. i need to go to the shop again though. did you notice whether box bloody fresh is out yet? it should, but that doesn't mean much. the music on lotd was a bit patchy. i got it cos i wanted the DVD. a good pirate session still smashes anything else. but the big boys don't hardly turn up any more. too busy 'working on their albums' or something. i really like those all star rhythms. the highly flammable one everyones been caning for ages is still the best. the new one is by lethal b. it's got loads of people on it. thats good too. my favourite mc at the moment is ghetto. he's a bit like narstie from NAA in that he won't just spit a little 8 bar, or a 16, he'll go and do about 64 or more, only he's better than narstie cos he;'s from plaistow not brixton. narstie is good though. solo and antix are good too from that crew. um, what else, nothing really. nasty easily the best crew. um, thingy, meridian trying to clash roll deep but honestly, they're really not nearly ready, skepta is big but lyrically they get crushed.

'i love soul, i love trance, i love music slow or fast
but i wish i would have listened in class'
that's the one you're talking about. it's been floating around for about a year now, but still no one seems to have a name for it. thats why it's called the mystery track. i've only ever heard scholar from ruff sqwad play it. brillaint though, obviously.

― l'''''''', Monday, 1 March 2004 23:53 (twenty years ago) link

bloody hell yes THANK YOU anything's better than farmer yardie. the rest of the cd is making it better. skippin over scorpion riddim, not setting me alight. wiley freestyle over joe buds 'fire', i kinda underrated this beat, jsut blaze needs some nu ideas tho. bring arms is that mumshouse lyric over understated beat. oh this is 'chosen one', ok this is ok! the er... underbeat is nice and insistent but riko's telling me to stay calm. hm ok riko. do be doo... last set of trax have a nice skulk to them, god's gift one is quite good, best since intro. 'std' is clumsy and crude and lame. flow dan still engaging when he's tense mumbleflowing and still iffy on choruses. ok sorry folks i was sleepy b4 and still ready for bed now, it was ok i certainly aint hating but i prefer the young gunz lp all the same! maybe just grime's not for me anymore. omg i see a giant floating dizzee head and his mouth is opening he's about to speak here it comes now and he says "OH WELL"

― prima fassy (mwah), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:05 (twenty years ago) link

and yeah that higlhyt flammable thing is kida go

― prima fassy (mwah), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:07 (twenty years ago) link

the fingers you have used to dial are too fat, please mash the keypad with your palm now

*cough* and yeah ur right that highly flammable megamix is v fun! more of that please defo

― prima_fassy (mwah), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:10 (twenty years ago) link

I have to say, I've never really liked God's Gift. I thought he ruined Street Beats. Flame me now.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:14 (twenty years ago) link

and prima, you had me until the Young Gunz thing.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:16 (twenty years ago) link

dude u had me until the god's gift thing! i can defend young gunnaz all day on principle i dont even need the facts or anything, but that lp's ok. haha i mean it's not like i bought it or anything. YET! i might for the juelz tune. and 'cant stop wont stop' was the tune of 03 blatantly

― prima fassy (mwah), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:21 (twenty years ago) link

how u could prefer doogz to gods gift is really beyond me tho

― prima_fassy (mwah), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:25 (twenty years ago) link

It's because I love the cheese.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:26 (twenty years ago) link

I know God's Gift is like, a legend and everything, he just seems to suck all the intensity out of any tune he's MCing over. To each his own.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:27 (twenty years ago) link

I've never really liked God's Gift. I thought he ruined Street Beats. Flame me now.

ok then. i think you must be a girl. what are, some kind of big girls blouse. gift is exceelent. if you don't like gift that means you don't like riko because they sound identical. only sissys don't like riko.

everyone loves god's gift. and riko dan.

street beats would have been shit even if every copy came with a golden ticket to visit the chocolate factory.

there, is that ok?

― l'''''', Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:27 (twenty years ago) link

I love Riko and Flo Dan!

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:31 (twenty years ago) link

wot he sucked the intensity out of the tune on the dizzee lp?! did u hear him on pum pum riddim, or doing never scared on 'heat in the street'! intensity, thats like the only thing i couldnt say against him

― prima fassy (mwah), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:32 (twenty years ago) link

wot he sucked the intensity out of the tune on the dizzee lp

Hold Ya Mouf? I would have preferred Riko on that!

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:43 (twenty years ago) link

intensity is definitely the mans forte. theres two clash lyirics on igloo, one by gift one by riko, any money you couldn't distinguish between the two (if the names were bleeped out)

who wants to sort me out with heat in the street? (assuming it left the shops ages ago)

i'm going to put a pizza in the oven. then i'm going to bed.
goodnight sweethearts
hey, prima fassy, am i confused or do you do spizzazzz?
thats what cozen told me but he lies about everything, its congential, all scotsmen do it

― l'''''', Tuesday, 2 March 2004 00:49 (twenty years ago) link

Prima is Rob Them Co.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 01:01 (twenty years ago) link

(hi prima!)

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 01:09 (twenty years ago) link

luka, I only have three tracks off of Heat In The Street, but you're welcome to them if you don't have any joy elsewhere.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 02:10 (twenty years ago) link

god that young gunz album is fucking trash

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 2 March 2004 03:32 (twenty years ago) link

Video for "Wot Do You Call It?"

I can't watch because I'm at work.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 3 March 2004 00:26 (twenty years ago) link

not exactly envigorating UNTIL the motorbike bit...wtf is that about? after that even the tune seems to take off.

― mullygrubber (gaz), Wednesday, 3 March 2004 00:41 (twenty years ago) link

I wish I knew what you were talking about.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 3 March 2004 00:42 (twenty years ago) link

is he a motorcycle nut? are there lyrics about motorcycles in there? revving sounds in the track? halfway through it starts to cut away to a guy doing wheelies for some reason.

― mullygrubber (gaz), Wednesday, 3 March 2004 00:44 (twenty years ago) link

is he driving one of those ruff ryders motorcycles?
