I know it's not the same as what you're talking about, but 7"s thread - http://dubstepforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=22931 - is already pretty comprehensive as a resource on labels.. maybe give it permanant sticky & expand on it with more links for each label etc... saves on splitting the forum ...

love it brian is one of my favourite characters ever. he's just about eclipsed by alan partridge Yes, Brian is the one! I've been tryin to find that clip of him where he's preparing to meet Vulva after years, rehearsing in the mirror... "Brian: Painter, Loser... big fucking LOSER." and th...

i quite like it, good sound pallette.. but the drums aren't moving enough, it just felt locked off after about 30 seconds.

quintessential comedy

ahh so this is that tune! amazing lush vibes, must come out surely.

spicerack, thanks for that: i've been searching up and down for that info. Very unnerving, and interesting. and @ Slim, yes mate that makes perfect sense; I have often thought that way.. but like many people i'm sure, something about it does not sit right with me. I think at the root of it, is that ...

ok, bringing this one back. It's definately been on my mind.. alot! I'm uncomfortable with alot of it still. Simulation argument aside.. thinking about the super-intelligence theory that may explain the complexities of our universe, how does this truly differ from 'intelligent design' or just the si...

may i please nominate the following:

Google Sketchup - you utterly erratic and unpredictable bastard.

and

AutoCAD 200x - may your creators burn in the infernos of hell for all eternity.

meh. That aint an amen. And it aint jump up. Could have been alot worse if you ask me. Imititation is the highest form of flattery.

it's too late for me to concentrate properly man, and i'm meant to be workin but i will look up some of the stuff from your last few posts tomorrow. cheers for an interesting discussion tho.

and if you get time:

i'm as sure as you that there's extra-terrestrial life out there, it would be a staggering statistical anomaly if that weren't the case.. i'm not convinced that we are all of one origin though - is that what you're sayin? I think the universe has capacity for more variety than that. With that in min...

ok.. i'm genuinely intrigued by what you believe that purpose is man. in our current form, we aren't doing too well with managing ourselves as a species, with one little planet. Maybe i have a negative outlook, but what's to say that we aren't just an evolutionary abortion waiting to happen?

i'm not saying i believe our existence is down to coincidence. but playing devil's advocate, there is no real proof one way or the other. personally i would like to believe that there is a purpose to the universe - even one that is beyond our current capacity for comprehension - and that we are here...

they're both excellent tunes. the vex'd mix is progressive and takes it somewhere completely different, there's alot goin on there. but the original has a speacial place in my heart cos it's one of the first tunes i was like :o what is this? they way the drums just slink in.. and the subs tease you ...

not sure that follows.. like they said in that video you linked to, a 'metaverse' incorporates all possibilities, including the chance that we happen to exist in the universe which was lucky(?) enough to have those finely tuned values. nothing there precludes the scenario that it's all one big coinc...

i forgive you

the evil-daemon/brain in a vat thing did my head in when i studied philosophy. not in the way that i thought it was bollocks, just that i don't think i'm smart enough to get my head around it properly. it was like looking at a magic eye puzzle. im loath to concede that god exists through definition ...

Yes it's very dependent on where you're looking at it from. Would you agree hip-hop dominated the US underground for decades? It's totally different here tho.
