not exactly 'high quality', but thought I'd give audio hijak a run for its money. On the ul now...

apologies in advance for the quality of the stream and any inherent breaks, etc but if you want it before the rinse upload, you get what you pay for, eh?

Glad people like it.

Yeah, that one's Lady Dub / Devotional Dubz Volume 1. Not many people have that. Working on another one like it. The album's out in a few months.

Big up Blackdown for dropping it on the show! Really excited...

Bigup everyone who tuned in or sent us tunes to play - it was a lot of fun, even if I was feeling pretty ropey.

Pretty tricky keeping up with MSN Messenger in the studio - there's no keyboard on the PC which makes typing interesting... What surprised me was the number of listeners messaging in from abroad - proper international business these days, Rinse.

BTW, Mr GrievousAngel: that Lady Dub tune is a belter!

the detroity strings tune at like the last 5 minutes:

that's me and it's called 'Focus'. Will be out and about at some point I'm sure, will keep you posted.

Slim:

Plus they look like they should be some kind of crimefighting duo.

Ha! At least you didn't draw for the Little and Large comparison

Roll on next month!

Oh, and as a thank you to those of you supporting us doing our thing, here's a link from an unlikely source to a whole load (keep scrolling down) of early (92-96) jungle/hardcore sets.

Some cobblers in there, but a few sets that look well worth investigating, especially this:
http://www.weareie.com/2005/11/sovereig ... -1995.html

00:00) 1.DJ Tamsin & Monk - A Better Place [DJ Crystl Rmx] (Whitehouse)
(06:01) 2.Deep Blue - Helicopter Tune (Moving Shadow)
(08:44) 3.Foul Play - The Stepper (Moving Shadow)
(11:47) 4.Urban Wax - Take Me Up Remix (Liquid Wax)
(17:24) 5.DJ Crystl - Let It Roll (Dee Jay)
(20:54) 6.Ruff With The Smooth - Twisted Girl (Basement)
(27:10) 7.Intense - The Quickening [DOPE Remix] (Rugged Vinyl)

Apologies if this has been posted before, but it's been a LONG time since I saw "DJ Tamsin & Monk" written anywhere... And can't believe Hyper-on-E really did a tune called "Monarch of the Glen"!?!

Glad you like Lady Dub

. More like that coming.

Sovereign Rhythms is Naphta and that's a wicked mix - a bad man producer! His new CD is, like, the best ragga jungle album for years. Blindingly good stuff. Just come out

Posted: **Fri Feb 01, 2008 8:53 pm**

excellent mix guys! feeling this from begining to end!

what's the first tune you played in your set? I need that in my life.

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 3:20 pm**

Brilliant show. Never thought I'd hear the word "Chlamydia" in a DJ mix

...what's the hyper-hyper-minimal tune that comes in after the skippy 4x4 one about 1h09m in? Frightentingly deep record!

That's by Scuba. I think it's on his upcoming album.

Haha I am such a fucking speng, I've got that.... it's 'Hard Boiled'. Blame the Sunday brain damage.

The very first tune? That was Kode9 "Subkontinent". It got released on Rephlex's "Grime 2" comp. Ahh sinodub, I never got bored of it...

full tracklist to follow soon.

Posted: **Mon Feb 04, 2008 4:59 am**

That's ridiculous, can't believe I forgot about it... thanks.

Edit: Those compressed percs are so Kode9...

Posted: **Mon Feb 04, 2008 5:03 am**

I wish he'd go back to making stuff like that. Was that when zed bias was engineering for him ?

Posted: **Mon Feb 04, 2008 8:51 am**

with respect to zed, i'm unsure how much he had to do with many of the engineering of early kode tunes outside of 'sign of the dub' (and even that i dont recall from the time).

certainly the drum patterns would have been all kode. a lot of early kode had lots of drum switches.

Posted: **Mon Feb 04, 2008 9:17 am**

That Movado remix needs to come out in some form btw... one of the spookiest things I've heard in a while.

2004 and kode releases 'sine of the dub' also the trax on 'grime 2', so which came first?

Because funnily enough, kode's drums on 'rephlex' sound closer to zed's twitchy style than anything zed had previously done in engineering 'sine'. Kode then would have learnt a lot in just few sessions with zed and given that 'sine' is such a departure from the 'grime 2' stuff it makes me wonder if zed had more influence on 'rephlex' kode and less on 'sine', a tune which did signal a new direction for kode.

What would be cool then is if kode hooked up with zed again and while i'm in wish mode, maybe el-b with mj cole and burial with reso again.

Posted: **Mon Feb 04, 2008 11:11 am**

i really think this zed-kode link is vastly overstated. everyone was more focused on percussion back then, that just was the dark swing style, and kode has always been one to find his own direction, which 'sign...' most definitely was.

Posted: **Mon Feb 04, 2008 11:56 am**

I would say vastly understated in that i never read kode suggest any link with zed. It's not like we're talking about nobody in particular here. We're talking zed bias, the broken beat 2step master and godfather of breakstep/breakbeat garage teaching the current don a thing or 2 in the studio. Imagine being a fly on the wall for those sessions ?

Hark back to 2004 and with that grime 2 compilation of kode9, loefah and DMZ i'd say the percussion of new dark swing finally lost sway to a stripped back minimalism and halfbeat signature with dubstep divesting itself of the 2 step formalism thus setting a blueprint which is still being cloned.
