grime in 2004

northwest is funny. they've all got gimmicks. doneao, van damage, flirta d... i spose bashy is making a name but i don't rate him persoanlly. tottenahm is big though. well, i like meridian and total package anyway.

SLK's sets on Raw UK are sounding full of energy, right up there with Ruff Sqwad's latest and WOAH - Rapid's new riddim is cantakerous! Uses a nize little 2-step beat with a five-note b-line and a freaky female vox-FX loop. Simple but incredibly efenctive.

North's big right now: Total Package, Meridian, OO Squad, Venom Crew, T.M.M, Gunja Fam/Rattle Pack, Combinations. Some nice producers too: Skepta, Marsta, General LOK, JME, Hindzy D, P Jam...

Also check out Squaden Man Dem on HEAT 96.6fm. One of their MCs is called J.A. and he's very talented. 8pm-10pm Thursdays.

Grime Pseudonym of the Month : Johnny Skeng

it's nowt but house pirates for me.

north London wise i really rate JME from Meridian.

Are you trying to do a Dave Stelfox imitation? ;(

I'll check there btw and if it's not insanely prohibitively expensive I will buy it, Martin.

good

(i got one with him and monkey too, old school)

Aside from Dizzee Rascal (probably "Stand Up Tall"), can anyone suggest four more good tracks that provide a solid cross-section?

Thanks for any help.

Speaking personally, trying to use that site is fucking painful, plus the shipping is extortionate cos of the strong pound. If you buy online Juno is actually the only site that's easy to use, but their garage selection is pretty limited, and they don't do dvds or tape packs.

I don't share this experience at all, and I order every few months.

there's a jammer remix of the new roots manuva single by the way. roots redoes his vocal so he sounds kinda like a grime MC in how he spits on it.

demon does the armshouse lyric.

Talking about new Rolldeep stuff, what's that mad riddim that has a classical string sample on it.

-- 3underscore (tripleunderscore__...), December 1st, 2004.

The Kode 9 10"s are totally amazing, but probably dont get a mention here because this is a grime thread and they're more part of the dubstep scene.

out of interest where did you play them tripleunderscore?

Think of all the new Roll Deep stuff, aside from Shake A Leg, Back In The Day (produced by Target, nice piano sample, featuring Wiley) is one of the beautiful pieces of music I've heard in ages.

after that horrendous band aid 20 thing, where he ruined an already shit remake and this, im starting to wonder about his taste and judgement.

i hate doogz so im not gonna mention anything by him cos hes too irritating and gimmicky. im sure other people could mention more than me.

just heard some audio of d double e MCing over jungle, and he sounded 359084958396895068396839056490584590386908690368903683906890383906839 times better than when trying to spit at slower tempos or trying to do more hip hop style MCing. amazing!!!!!

comb. form meaning "Chinese," 1879, from L.L. Sinæ (pl.) "the Chinese," from Ptolemaic Gk. Sinai, from Arabic Sin "China," probably from Chinese Ch'in, name of the fourth dynasty of China.

theres the d-double on jungle audio from radio. i dunno how anyone can hear that and then think that he should be making hip hop tracks. he sounds so incredible and right at home on 160bpms.
