strings is a bit hyper-on experience dont u think

― prima fassy (mwah), Thursday, 10 June 2004 09:30 (twenty years ago) link

is that a good or bad thing? dont know much about hyper-on experience. all i know is that strings is heavy. and it sounds deadly on the conflict dvd, all 30 secs of it!!!!!!!!!

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 10 June 2004 09:34 (twenty years ago) link

v much a good thing. its the bboy beepboop squiggles more than the strings what made me think it

― prima fassy (mwah), Thursday, 10 June 2004 09:39 (twenty years ago) link

the lady sovereign thing kind of annoys me. not least of which because it's basically the original "check one-two" with "grimey" beats.

summer 2004 = big year for grime LPs.

the Roll Deep LP is actually finished!
Roll Deep mix CD is underway
Dizzee's keeps it dark
Kano's is in progress

not sure Doogz is gonna do much/any grime but i'll check for his LP as and when it drops.

What about TINCHY????

T-Star ft. Fraction-G - Bounds

Those strings!

the first rule of grime artist albums: no album deal, no album! (name one garage album (not mix tape!) that has been come out on the back of the artist themselves!)

Tinchy doesn't have a deal so... no album as far as i've heard.

Terra Danja also has a track called "Strings" which is pretty insane. Plus his new track with Shola Ama is elegant enough to incite MJ Cole-of-grime comparisons.

anyone seen the grime feature in xlr8r?

good background on Rinse Fm's role in the scene and great pics of Kano, D Double E, Slimzee, Riko, Target, Wonder, Dirty Doogz etc.

― jon b, Tuesday, 15 June 2004 13:31 (twenty years ago) link

I read it. It was passable, I guess. great pics of Plasticman and *le sigh* D Double.

my new grime june 2004 folder may be of interest to some.

― AdamL :') (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 15 June 2004 18:52 (twenty years ago) link

well ok not all that much interest. but it does have some new grime in it. the ruff squad dub at the start of the 24/5 raw blaze show is gorgeous.

― toby (tsg20), Tuesday, 15 June 2004 19:58 (twenty years ago) link

toby is yr username toby_gee? just a guess.

also, heres the first 'grimette' tune that i am into, if grimette means gime with girly vocals....

nio - 'no strings' - danny weed and target remix. should be winging its way towards me right now....

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 17 June 2004 15:41 (twenty years ago) link

no, ambrose - it begins with c and i'm always in the ilm room.

― toby (tsg20), Thursday, 17 June 2004 19:17 (twenty years ago) link

did anyone read martin's interview with terror danjah at hyperdub yet? the r&b/grime thing seems promising (for right now)...

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 17 June 2004 20:23 (twenty years ago) link

it's quite odd that ilxor and the US 2step list should notice that piece on the same day ... it's been up for weeks. anyone have any idea why?

― martin (martin), Thursday, 17 June 2004 22:41 (twenty years ago) link

um, it was my first day off in a while?

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 17 June 2004 23:42 (twenty years ago) link

er look i was in "manic vinyl" yesterday, had another listen to that nio tune (the danny weed and target remix)and its really really fucking good. anyone else heard it? just want to spread the love....you need this! i would put it on slsk if i could take a deck into work and dgitise surreptiously (ie i can't). maybe i'll ask gareth to do it on his computer

― ambrose (ambrose), Sunday, 20 June 2004 15:43 (twenty years ago) link

am feeling this. Target is a genius. look out for Target ft. Riko "Hands Up" too. it's a smasher...

― martin (martin), Monday, 21 June 2004 08:48 (twenty years ago) link

yes please ambrose that would be fantastic.

i will try to record ruff squad on raw blaze tonight if i am home in time.

― toby (tsg20), Monday, 21 June 2004 09:00 (twenty years ago) link

hmmm it hasnt come thru yet! is raw blaze a station? whats the frequency?

actually, can we do a london pirate check here? i am unsure as to whats going on, all i know are:

92.3 deja - now shit, no grime
100.3 rinse - v little grime, too 'forward'

raw mission - never found it, dont know frequency
heat - dont know freq.

what is the main station now?

― ambrose (ambrose), Monday, 21 June 2004 11:55 (twenty years ago) link

raw blaze is 96.5
on top is 90.0

they're the grime stations of the month. heat was doing it a month or two ago, but they went off air.

this was a decent poll of the stations .... http://www.rwdmag.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3361&sid=8c5fd20d71921211c53215f87b655aa3

but i think the poll is broken.

i still love Rinse. you cant argue with Hatcha, Kode 9, Target, Wonder, Distance etc...

― martin (martin), Monday, 21 June 2004 12:32 (twenty years ago) link

are you sure, martin?! i thought raw blaze was 90.0. in fact i'm sure it is.

― toby (tsg20), Monday, 21 June 2004 13:00 (twenty years ago) link

what times for raw blaze? still monday night?

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Monday, 21 June 2004 13:01 (twenty years ago) link

yeah raw blaze, 9 grand

― prima fassy (mwah), Monday, 21 June 2004 13:03 (twenty years ago) link

oh maybe i got them the wrong way around...

― martin (martin), Monday, 21 June 2004 13:19 (twenty years ago) link

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 22:07 (twenty years ago) link

What about Desert Storm? that's pretty good.

― AdamL :') (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 22:09 (twenty years ago) link

i am a bit worried that i am enjoying more new dnb i've heard this year than most of the grime

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 22:09 (twenty years ago) link

*song link deleted at request of blog owner, link to blog two posts down -- MOD*

did tinchy's "it's real" ever get a release? it's probably 2003.

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 22:16 (twenty years ago) link

that one's great.

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 22:23 (twenty years ago) link

no shit shylock.

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 22:26 (twenty years ago) link

yes that one is also great. His voice is breaking now, he sounds a bit different.

― AdamL :') (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 22:32 (twenty years ago) link

i think he's getting better (sounding)

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 22:35 (twenty years ago) link

"Move" is really good! It has "I Luv U" snares!
