Wow, killer track. I don't know much about the particular artist but I've mostly heard about him in the context of ambient/chillout/trip hop. For the track in question I'd say techno. Close resemblances I could think of are Tycho, Shigeto, Nosaj Thing... but hell I didn't even know he made tracks that sound like this.

Thanks man, I'm pretty familiar with a lot of the Ruff Sqwad stuff. I have both of those and they're pretty awesome, but When It's On just sticks out as the high water mark. It's the rawness/hardness of the beat and the straight violence they spit on that track. It's just so hype and it sets me off.

Also, last week's Spyro had MS1 do a guest set and hoolllyyy shitttt. The whole set killed it, but the intro track for it (that i can't seem to find) was insane. Here's the link. The set (and song) kick off at like 1:12.0 (and if anyone has a link to this jam I'd be mad greatful).

Yeah I got to admit having not heard a Kode9 set anytime recently I was a bit shocked to find it had all gone a bit footworky though. But I've been digging it, he's actually twisted it to suit his own style which is how it should be done I guess.

Oh and in case anyone hasn't already bought the 2CD Eglo Records comp, add it to the top of your list. Unless you're uncool in which case don't. Now I know one or two of you don't like Floating Points, who appear a lot on the discs, but that's what happens when you co-own the label but it's worth it for all those classic Funkineven and Fatima joints at least.

I have to admit I've been avoiding the new Photek single. Well I say new, I guess it's more old new, with the a-side being Pyramid which was actually one of the stand out tracks on his slightly disappointing at times last album. But that's not why I was avoiding the release.

The flipside is a remix of Oshun, which was a loving horrible track that I always thought was 'Progressive' sounding in the contemporary and worst possible way (i.e. more likely to be found in a recent Scuba set). So it'd take something a bit special to salvage it, not something I thought was likely to happen. But gently caress me, I'll be damned if I don't think Keysound/Tectonic alumni Beneath has managed to pull that wreck from it's tepid grave. By drowning it in heavyweight pressure, gutting it of the proggy high energy bits and stapling on a more skeletal, spacious drumbeat it's been turned into one of those rare beasts; a remix that completely wipes the floor with the original.

Well on an instrumental kick recently you've had stuff like Terror Danjah's Hardwired disc, Big Dada's got a double disc collection of instrumentals called Grime 2.0 which is due out round about now I think, that's sounding very good. Oh and Footsie put out a bunch of his instrumentals on NHNH called King Original.

Mixtape/album wise I've actually thought it's been a quiet couple of months. I quite liked Manga's recent mixtape ThreeHundred&Sixty. Don't bother with Doogz' new tape Young Legend. Biggest disappointment in a long while.

It's always a shame when you hear like this, and the early stuff then compare it to what he does nowadays. A right shame.

Speaking of Grime artists on major labels, Dot Rotten has just released his new LP (first ever actual album I think too?) on Mercury. Sadly - as you've maybe heard from the previously released singles - it's not a patch on what he's done on the past, plus the album seems to have been pushed out with little to no fanfare. What's the chances it'll be former Mercury Records recording artist this time tomorrow.

Well if it makes you feel any better unless you were already floating about the scene at the time, or otherwise really cool, few outside of London really got a good grasp of it either. Sure you had Dizzee and a couple of others who might've hit the charts but 99% of people just wrote it off with, "oh, it's like rap music or something". Things like the Run The Run comps and the Rephlex Grime thing helped but still pretty low key in the rest of the country. Funnily enough the first Grime act that I can remember to make it up here was the Mancunians' Virus Syndicate, a group who I remembered trucked about everywhere.

Blame it on the narrow London-centric viewpoint I guess you can get if you've lived your entire life down there. Youths who thought Watford was way up norf, and sticking a box of whites into Uptown, Blackmarket, Rhythm Division or wherever made them billy big bollocks. Kinda like signing for the old firm I guess. Shame as I used to think it would really take over the place back then.

You know here's a question for all you over the pond. I always wondered how or where Grime entered into the American musical awareness bubble. I mean pre-Youtube and all that jazz. What made it over there first? Or what made a bit of a splash first? Who do you remember first picking it up? Where do you remember first hearing it? If it's by some kind of pre-general internetty way it'd be doubly cool to find out.

Now obviously I know nothing made the charts or anything. No platinum records etc, but I know the likes of Roll Deep did a appearance over in New York in the mid-00s, so there must've been a wee bit of a notion about what it was all about. I mean there's a specific Dizzee tune just mentioned, how'd that make it through the trans-Atlantic gauntlet?.

Anyway I noticed it's actually been about an entire month since Mike_V's suggest the great idea of doing a compilation showcase Friday kind of thing. So are people still up for doing it again this Friday? As I gotta say I really enjoyed it last time, though I hope this time more of you will join in with some love. No slacking 'cause I know you all got some comp that you love! Even if you don't think you have something you really do if you take a second to think about it! After all it was a pretty broad remit wasn't it?

I kinda feel I might take the hints I felt were dropped in the initial idea and showcasing something Garagey, but what I don't know yet.

Yeah, I'll do it again Friday. I'll look for a deeper cut this time.

EDIT: 2005ish is when MTVu was playing things like Dizzee and Lady Sov, but it was isolated incidents. I know I got in around 2008-09, so it took a while to penetrate I guess. The Streets were sort of known, but honestly I still have a hard time classifying Mike Skinner as grime since it's just really different than the early stuff I'm into.

If it's by some kind of pre-general internetty way it'd be doubly cool to find out.

My first exposure was seeing Kano's P's and Q's vid and Kray Twins/Lethal B/Twista - How We Do on the indie/alternative show late one night on Muchmusic. This was around the time the pitch-shifted sample-driven beat thing was the rage thanks to Kanye West, so that led to me getting online and discovering Joker - Snake Eater and the whole world of chopped up pitch shifted beats getting vocalled across the pond. Then the deeper, bassier stuff which was everything I liked in rap at the time being done 5-10x better.

Jay-Z signing Lady Sov kinda opened up discovery of the grime scene too I think, and I remember hearing Wearing My Rolex out and about a bunch in mixes and such when that dropped too. The BBK Westwood freestyles were kind of a thing once those were on Youtube. And the Dizzee Rascal joint with Bun B, but I don't think there's ever been that much awareness of the grime scene on this side of the world. Tinie Tempah made some splash with Pass Out, and then that track with Swedish House Mafia of course. For the longest time most people just wrote it off as rap with funny accents, but now that EDM has penetrated the mainstream in the last few years, there's a bit more tolerance for some tracks.

Oh and @Mike_V that Skepta - Fuckin Widda Team is on BBK Vol 1..

I remember "Stand Up Tall" being kind of a minor hit with the hip set in like... '03 or '04? When Boy In Da Corner came out. Dizzee was tapped to open for Jay-Z on some stateside dates, too, and that was considered notable cuz it was hova's "seal of approval" or w/e, and most people still seemed to regard grime as being a regional twist on rap music. Really any sort of hip hop-seeming thing from abroad was seen as novel.

I believe Lady Sovereign and Miss Dynamite also had minor one-hit wonder status (or at least brief music journalist buzz) around that time too, but tbqh I think most of the interest in LS came from her apparent whiteness and her stature / gender that didn't fit into hypermasculine black music stereotypes around rap. She was bandied about as a "female Eminem" and never really taken seriously even by people who held her up as some kind of mold-breaker.
