TS: Grime 2002 - 2003 vs Grime 2004 - 2005

TRACK ID

Looking for an early (2001/2002) sublow/grime/dubstep riddim that jess described on ILM as something that could be tapped out on a coke bottle. Can't find the original thread on search. What was the tune????

obvious jokes welcome so long as someone IDs the tune too

oh man. uh. let me think about this for a second.

i THINK i was referring to one of the early wiley productions. probably an instrumental. like circa 2002/2003. the bass in those tracks always sounded, to me, like someone blowing over the mouth of an empty plastic bottle.

I have a vague memory of it perhaps being an East Connection tune you were talking about jess?

if i had to guess i'd say one of mixes of "igloo."

xpost: maybe!

perhaps...

Yeah I think that was it!

there's this one white label i've been trying to find for years, by "ot crew." (no idea.) actually put it in my pazz n jop top ten in 2002. almost afraid to find it, because there's no way it can be as good as i remember.

I think that is it, it definitely wasn't Igloo but I don't remember it being Wiley-related. This was on the first mega-rolling Grime thread which I know can't find. It's hard to tell listening to it through Youtube on a 7 year old laptop though!

I have many many many DVDs of this stuff (more than anyone should have, really). I should archive them before they are lost for eternity!!

No it was East Connection, here's the link to the OG jess post:

What are your favourite UKG/garage rap/blipment/whatever you want to call it tracks so far?

Good work, tim!

Haha what happened to "blipment"? I miss those threads

lol @ "blipment"

there are SO many tunes on that thread that i was talking up where all these years later i have NO idea what they even sounded like

wow so weird this thread got bumped, i was just last night going through a mammoth folder of old ca 02-03 grime mp3s

there was this one i found that was a radio rip of some i assume rolldeep tune, really beautiful, solemn, tortured riddim, dizzee rascal talking about how he should`ve listened at school, that dude with the "used to get bullied by the white boys, but now you don`t wanna fight boys" lyric, i think flo dan has a verse? the mp3 was titled "unknown" or something, does it ring a bell w/ anyone?

Haha, I have so many Grime-->unknown.mp3 files

I swear I have some Dizzee/Slimzee sets that have better moments than anything on Boy In Da Corner or Showtime

You're not from the borough, you're not from the ends...

Where is Alex when u need him? And what happened to ambrose?

"Haha, I have so many Grime-->unknown.mp3 files"

^^ this. The records do seem kind of tame too now.

There was some mix (rupture maybe?) that used that East Connection tune (which is a Wiley remix btw). I recognized the horn sample right off.

found it!

/// unreleased dizzee tune /// taken from blackdown mix ///

good times

So many times on my headphones, "I love girls, I love sex, I love cash, I love cheques..."

:'( forever

call me naive but i would still like to know for really reals if "matthew herbert played keybs on champagne dance" was a joke

Maybe it was that fake matthew herbs who produced for Lady Sov.

prob just a guy with the same name

hmmm I've got Lord of the Decks Vol 2 down as 2003, but discogs is saying 2004

once we settle this we can answer the OP's question
