Notting Hill Carnival - What to see/ do...

my advice would be not to try and do too much as you can spend all day missioning it trying to get somewhere instead of just enjoying the vibes.

My personal favourite is Nasty Love sounds in the middle of Colville Gardens cos its one of the few sounds playing up to the minute dancehall. its also quite easy to get to channel one from there.

have a good one.

i really miss the days when Tim Westwood and Chris Goldfinger used to have their stage under the westway, that was the SICKEST soundsystem i ever saw, 2 days of pure hip hop and dancehall

Looks like we are going to Dub4Life!

Seem fitting since it is all about the different types of music influenced by Dub including some actual reggae / dub.

Always FWD but it isn't that far if you leave at 6am! Use normal transport and it shouldn't take more than an hour unless you far out East.

FWD lineup isn't saying much for me, some good options here ^

is there any chance there would be any dubstep at the actual carnival? Maybe rampage might play some

we tried to put the heartless crew on in manchester and police locked it off around a week before the date. real pity too cos we had some mad experimental set with live instrumentation and a wide range of tunes for mo and bushkin to feature on.

would like to reach this gig, but yeh, could be risky

Yeah Police locked off a night I was gonna go to in Bedford tomorrow. Piss take.

Would have loved to go to the mad decent party, waited outside for a few hours and had no luck...my mate gave my guestlist space to someone else! eventually just went off on my own and found a grime soundsystem, POW got 6 rewinds or something ridiculous. King Tubbys tent was sick as well
