:shock:

What would be the point of cutting/pasting a 64-128kbit audiostream. Can't believe that anyone would dare to play out such crap. Sorry but to me the whole argument sounds a bit whack.

Well people do cut from mp3s, it's a fact - whether it's from a stream or from a downloaded mix is irrelevant. If you've ever been involved in the drum n bass scene, you will have seen what's happened in the past.

And the fact that it wouldn't sound anything like good doesn't deter some people. Why do you think Skreamz put bird song through his recent mix - it wasn't just the creative aspect

information wants to be free

So if I want to have your house and your car and your girlfriend I will?

If someone wants something that badly, they probably wouldn't be in the buying market anyway, but it's the chancers that this sort of thing is trying to curb from 'cuttin and pasting' as it's been put.

imho there are 2 kinds of people - ones who buy and ones who don't buy
if someone is buying type he will by the tune
if someone is not buying type he will not buy it and u can do nothing with it
i'm not juding if it's right or wrong, i'm just trying to describe facts as they are

Pirate radio is the medium of our community: the shouts are equally as important as the dubs.

this it isnt sterile studio sound recordings, it's live, living, breathing, crackling, illegal, London dubstep radio culture!

if people want to listen to clean, sterile tracks: go buy some electronica CDs.

That's exactly why I love pirate radio, especially the London scene - it makes people feel connected and 'plugged in'. The shouts are all part of that connection. The crackle, rawness and direct uncensored communication of it is in direct contrast to the overly slick censored commercial radio of the overground.

yeah i love listening to all the studio chat and hearing the djs getting excited about new tracks... you get a right laugh at some of the banter!

N Type is the funniest. that show from this summer when the mic died and he had to use the headphones was hillarious. it suddenly sounded like he was on the moon!

Londoners are very lucky to have an active pirate radio community. Radio where I live sounds so lifeless in comparison.

That is exactly why I love pirate radio (recordings). There is a level of honesty that is unrivalled, an undeniable urge to communicate.
I'm lovin the big ups to internet streamers and forum crew as well

i've got a Bruza Rinse set where he gets a text from people listening online San Francisco.

He starts this hillarious one sided conversation with the US. 'so how's it going? what the girls like? what's the weather like there? here it's not bad... comme ci comme ca...'

Strangely corresponds with:

Marshall McLuhan wrote: [...] radio is that extension of the central nervous system that is matched only by human speech itself. Is it not worthy of our mediation that radio should be specially attuned to that primitive extension of our central nervous system, the vernacular tongue?

and in certain sense as well with:

Marshall McLuhan wrote:As the printing press cried out for nationalism, so did the radio cry out for tribalism

Anyway... nevermind the bollocks.

I don't want to sound stupid, but what's wrong with being enthusiastic about ANY cutting edge music ? I'm always in a good mood after a shitty dayjob to listen to fresh sets, hearing fresh tunes...no matter what hype is spoken...

Besides, anything can get discussed to death.

Yeah

I like the chatting, makes me laugh, puts the listener in dialogue with the DJ - text in bigging them up or your mates or whatever... makes the listener feel part of the show.
