Maybe that was his way of describing it and not literally meaning grime? And if it was on MAH's show, it would have been her speaking, not a dude.

This does not make sense. I don't believe it happened.

you're probably right, though i never said a dude said anything, i said a broadcaster i.e. MAH or another female presenter :wink:

ah well, i must have imagined it or got me wires crossed. cheers anyway.

Have you tried looking at the radio 1 website and looking at the tracklists for the presenters ?

They go waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back and if it was on radio 1 i'm sure you will find if it actually exists.
If it does then the next step is finding the recording of it.

Im pretty sure Autechre did a mix.
Same sorta lines as Squarepusher.
Doubt it had any grime in though.

ah, there's many references on the web to his breezeblock sessions. :)

i'm doubtful now though that these would have been grime or dubstep inspired.

Heh.
yeh, i often wonder what people like Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Tim Exile would sound like if they produced dubstep

i remember an interview where he said he loved dubstep, but there was too many repeats or something like that.
