grime in 2004

here's the thread where we talk about grime in 2004. random observations:

- the album version of "ground zero" is fantastic. i've never found the instrumentalall that mind-blowing, to be honest, but this is something else.

- ruff squad seem to be on fire at the moment. i only caught the last 10 minutes of their deja show this week, but they were playing some amazing dubs. i'm pretty sure one of them was a vocal version of "armour", and it's got that huge/mournful thing going on. the week before they played that old mystery roll deep track ("i love girls/i love trance"), maybe it's going to be on tinchy's album? 4pm-6pm on 92.3 on mondays, anyway.

- did lord of the decks 2 come out yesterday as promised?!

- j2k's "heat in the street" is out, haven't heard it yet though.

what else is good right now?

ground zero's not on the album last time i'd heard, where did you hear that?

― martin (martin), Friday, 2 January 2004 14:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Could someone take a sec and define grime? Thanks.

hahahha. an as yet undefined subgenre of UK garage fella... ever evolving

btw isnt it your birthday today toby?

― martin (martin), Friday, 2 January 2004 14:54 (twenty-one years ago)

heat in the street 12" is out. that has got 'this is me' on it, which is essentail! not sure about the rest tho - havent bothered listening. its all about the thuggish ruggish for me tho....despite being pretty old now, i'm glad i've managed to get my hands on it. that electro-bass sound..mmmmm

― ambrose (ambrose), Saturday, 3 January 2004 00:50 (twenty-one years ago)

"Thuggish Ruggish" is great - probably my favourite grime tune of last year (I've loved an untitled version of it on tape for yonks!). Otherwise I'm loving Davinche's "What I Found In You" (femme-pop-grime).

2004: year of Target and Skepta!

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Saturday, 3 January 2004 03:57 (twenty-one years ago)

and Rapid! his stuff for Ruff Sqwad is godlike

― Keith McD, Saturday, 3 January 2004 09:52 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm with you boys, target, skepta and rapid are the producers to watch, sometimes i think rapid more than anybody, i love those big grandiose, mournful producions. i think the rapid tune toby is talking about is lethal injection, ruff squad have a vocal of it themselves, armours got one, maybe some others, although rapid has a new one i don''t know the name of yet which is equally stately.
that roll deep track, i love music slow or fast, but i wish i would of listenend in class, i've only ever heard ruff squad play that, the version on twanboc was taped off a ruff squad set. i was listening to crazy titch last night and he sounds ready to blow, he's not exactly subtle, but he's got personality, got energy, it made me laugh last night, he goes, 'big up 50 cent, he's trying to be crazy titch, it won't work though...' he also bigged all the british rappers, which was nice of him, he always sounds such a lovely boy, although he had quite a fearsome reputation in his younger days. erm, more stun guns for 2004, thats my prediction. bzzzzzztt

― luka vandross, Saturday, 3 January 2004 10:36 (twenty-one years ago)

knightz of the roundtable are on deja right now until two, one of my favourite crews, i think nasty are on at 4-6 and east co are on 8-10, so if you're on london you can catch up on everything today today
92.3fm

― .:.l.:., Saturday, 3 January 2004 12:43 (twenty-one years ago)

cool luke, thanks for the tip. is there a deja schedule anywhere on the web? i tried to find one a while ago but couldn't.

― toby (tsg20), Saturday, 3 January 2004 13:29 (twenty-one years ago)

there's one in the heronbone archive i think, although natrally they're out of date a week after you put them up, i nicked it from the rwd message boards. monday and saturday are the days to listen in. monday is crew day wth meridian nasty ruff squad and tu tuff and east co, start listening in the afternoon.

― lukle, Sunday, 4 January 2004 10:56 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah hopefully i'm going to manage to make my computer record it for me while i'm at work.

slsk ppl - i can't recommend the ruff squad set on deja from 22 dec enough, i'm sharing it, d/l it now!

y'all forgetting Skepta's cohort: Terra Danjah. Check out his mix of DTI for absolute 'strings of death' merkery.

J2K's 'Heat In The Street' is cool, but he can't better Pharoahe Monch over the Agent Orange beat.

Just heard SLK with Flirta D on RawMish9000; them boys got so excited about who was going to spit next that they broke the mic?! Plus they're all inventing mad noises to place in their rhymes (similar to D.E.E), revving cars, gunshots and quite heartwaringly, Incredible Levy-style high-pitched breath intakes. Ooooahh Oooooahh (Sun 6-8pm, for future reference)

― tinman, Monday, 5 January 2004 00:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Terra Danjah's production on "Cock Back" is great, and I also really like his track with Shola Ama and D.E.E. - "Contagious" I think. Another one of those delirious whirring grimette tunes.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Monday, 5 January 2004 04:19 (twenty-one years ago)

I just downloaded something which is supposedly a Skepta remix/mash-up of "Are You That Somebody?" and it almost sounds like a grimy take on eighties' freestyle.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 5 January 2004 04:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah that's what all the grimette tunes sound like! They're great!

are there, or will there be, any regional variants on grime? or is it/will it remain a london thing?

― gareth (gareth), Tuesday, 6 January 2004 10:18 (twenty-one years ago)

There's macabre unit from somewhere in the midlands i think, they have a big tune called 'Taurus'.

― peckham rye, Tuesday, 6 January 2004 10:37 (twenty-one years ago)

DJ Oddz is a grimey Cardiff boy... I think his recent 'Strung Up' did pretty well. But he's working with London folk now.

― Jason J, Tuesday, 6 January 2004 11:20 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah macarbre unit have made a little name for themselves although they're not very good. co defendants are from bedford or somehwere like that and are actually fairly good. luton is quite big for grime i think. regional variations exist within london to a certain extent. at least, at lot of the sutff i've heard from north london sounds like demon boyz or gunshot or something. antix from NAA, the wittiest MC in south's biggest crew sounds like he's originally from the midlands, maybe nottingham, is that midlands or more northish?

did you hear that last night on deja? heard it for the first time myself last night. terre danja's got his own thing. he's very understated. anyone hear what he did to take them out? took all the bombast out, made it quite subtle. i like him, he's different. dj scholar playred the mysterious roll deep track (dizzee/breeze/jamakabi if i remember right)
and a couple of new rapid productions, watch out for the skeleton riddim and they reckon lethal injection will be in the shops soon, with pied piper voals on the bside.

― lex luka, Tuesday, 6 January 2004 11:47 (twenty-one years ago)

i like Breeze when he says 'used to get bullied by the white boys/but now you don't wanna fight boys'.

meridian - "don't fuck around": not so sure i like the slooooowing down thing, but i do like the little kid-shouting-the-title-sample.

skepta/dee/jme - "serious thugs": sounds like some g-funk ripping rnb track circa 95 aka great. ooer ooer.

mark one - "life support": still a sucker for those metropolis spaceship hums after all these years...

― fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 6 January 2004 15:31 (twenty-one years ago)

where did you hear don't fuck around jess?
i didn't think that tune got noticed by anyone, it's fairly old. i was sort of thinking off that, and tunes like that when i said north london keeps making tracks that sound like gunshot or demon boyz.

what you're calling serious thugs is what me and those boys are calling thuggish ruggish, i think it sounds like gfunk as well, and it has a bone thugs and harmony sample on it

― lukle, Tuesday, 6 January 2004 15:39 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah, i thought they might be the same track...one of the perils of going by mp3 tags...

i heard "don't fuck around" via the independance website...sadly it's where i have to hear most of this stuff these days.

― fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 6 January 2004 15:42 (twenty-one years ago)

(better than nothing, obv)

― fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 6 January 2004 15:43 (twenty-one years ago)

thuggish ruggish/serious thugs is pretty much the entire 'thuggish ruggish bone' by bone thugz song cut up a little bit. Quite a strange departure by Skepta really. Fucking love it, although it's made me realise how very few lyrics dee has, i swear i've heard that 'heads get mangled then dangled to the side just like i wear my kangol' on about 5 different recordings. Who is Jamie?

― peckham rye, Tuesday, 6 January 2004 16:17 (twenty-one years ago)

j.me, he is called jamie, but a lot of the time people get confused and call him j.m.e. but it's splet j.me. he's the biggest MC in meridian. he's the one goes
SERIOUS
on all of skeptas tunes.

he's got a lyric something along the lines of
'SERIOUS, don't say SERIOUS, i say SERIOUS, you could never say SERIOUS, i'm too SERIOUS' the way he says serious, is really the justification for his entire existance, cos it is really very good, the way he says that although other than that he's not that great. you can hear him, skepta and the rest of meridian on deja on mondays.

d.e.e does actually have quite a lot of lyrics, i swear, he's even got a big long narrative one about escaping the feds down the a13 into Barking, GANGSTA! but he does use that heads get mangled one quite a lot.

that's my real email address up there. jess and tim finney, if you want to send an email i could send you over a couple of tapes, anyone really but you two especially cos you write about garage and live in faraway lands so you deserve 'em

Jammer did imply in his exit interview that some of the MCs were on his side - maybe D.E.E. was too loyal to Jammer?

i got some new bashy mix CD called 'UR MUM VOL 1 (seriously), its got yet another wiley dis track on it with a stupid skit about trying to sell wiley with noone buying him. he then disses him over nas' ether beat. its tragically shit, and bashy is basically a bad UKHH artist.

― titchyschneider (titchyschneider), Thursday, 2 December 2004 11:34 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, that Bashy CD isn't saying much at all. I know I've lost touch with the kids when I read on RWD that Bashy murked Wiley. One of the most unimaginative disses I've heard that simply reiterates what Doogz, Sharky Major et al have said in the past. Think it's taking it too far bringing Wiley's sisters name into it. Great to see government funding going towards studio projects like this don't you think...

Think of all the new Roll Deep stuff, aside from Shake A Leg, Back In The Day (produced by Target, nice piano sample, featuring Wiley) is one of the beautiful pieces of music I've heard in ages.

― Chantelle Fiddy, Thursday, 2 December 2004 14:15 (twenty years ago)

On the Kode9 tip just came across this interview where he was saying that grime is more 'forward' than forward if you know what i mean

― Jon B, Thursday, 2 December 2004 17:40 (twenty years ago)

worse than kids saying bashy murked wiley is kids saying that dizzee murked titch. matter of fact, wileys answer back to dizzee's track on showtime talking about what happened in napa is better than dizzee's too.

― titchyschneider (titchyschneider), Thursday, 2 December 2004 18:23 (twenty years ago)

three weeks pass...

just read on teletext on channel 4 that dizzee has signed class a to dirtee stank/XL as his first signing, after they walked from their original deal with XL. slightly weird thing to do cos class a are pretty shit (apart from having a few good beats). of all the people he could have signed to his label, im not sure why he picked them.

after that horrendous band aid 20 thing, where he ruined an already shit remake and this, im starting to wonder about his taste and judgement.

dizzee - stop dat
kano - what have you done

Grime with this Chinese sounding percussion on them, like Wonder's What, as used by Dizzee Rascal on Respect Me.

― JoB (JoB), Friday, 31 December 2004 13:50 (twenty years ago)

oh ok. why call it sinogrime though?!

just heard some audio of d double e MCing over jungle, and he sounded 359084958396895068396839056490584590386908690368903683906890383906839 times better than when trying to spit at slower tempos or trying to do more hip hop style MCing. amazing!!!!!

― manoamano, Friday, 31 December 2004 13:56 (twenty years ago)

that doesnt surprise me. most grime MCs need to stop trying to make hip hop tracks.

― titchyschneider (titchyschneider), Friday, 31 December 2004 14:16 (twenty years ago)

― Frankenstein On Ice (blueski), Friday, 31 December 2004 14:17 (twenty years ago)

yeah, well, thats a sad fact, but id rather hear early roll deep tracks then something like let it out, personally. or diz's i luv u compared to that new thing on 1xtra, lets go to work, which is jsut terrible!!!

― titchyschneider (titchyschneider), Friday, 31 December 2004 14:45 (twenty years ago)

why call it sinogrime though?!

comb. form meaning "Chinese," 1879, from L.L. Sinæ (pl.) "the Chinese," from Ptolemaic Gk. Sinai, from Arabic Sin "China," probably from Chinese Ch'in, name of the fourth dynasty of China.

― JoB (JoB), Friday, 31 December 2004 14:46 (twenty years ago)

it's just called oriental grime.

theres the d-double on jungle audio from radio. i dunno how anyone can hear that and then think that he should be making hip hop tracks. he sounds so incredible and right at home on 160bpms.

― titchyschneider (titchyschneider), Friday, 31 December 2004 18:49 (twenty years ago)

yeah i'd go along with that. i got about ten minutes of d.e.e sharky and stormin over jungle. mac 10 just started playing it towards the end of a set a couple of years ago and they're all amazing on it, stormin more than anyone, he smashes it. i don't know what it is with those slow tempoes, but it does always sound rubbish, unless your name's kano, he sounds alright on a slower beat, otherwise its terrible as a general rule.

Fwd 2011 isn't very good really, someone needs to take Kano and Chipmunk to the knackers yard really. I'd argue that grime probably means more and is more relevant in Britain in 2011 than it was in 04-05, ie premature internet hype phase.

Also, Flockaveli is basically a grime album.

Admittedly I probably (like with jungle, garage, well anything UK continuum related) have way way too many discs which lean more toward the mediocre than the sublime, but that's sort of how this works isn't it?

― Fig On A Plate Cart (Alex in SF), Wednesday, 12 January 2011 14:57 (fourteen years ago)

I'm really excited by stuff going on here atm.
Marger & Rival were set to be a major team, - as demonstrated by this absolute boy of a first set on Logan:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPu9qfB0EIg

but now Margs has gone ego nuts & has basically told Rival to go home and get his fuckin shinebox- "sent to the shop, sent to the shop, Rival use to get sent to the shop". The dub also featured a little send for MIK, who's certainly got a reply. It's not likely Rival will reply- he seems really upset on Twitter.

Instrumentals are v. v. strong at the minute. I love the Spartan meme. the newest remix basically made me dash all my stuff across the room:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrfR2KajeY0

these are all amazing in sets:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsEiFZjcvr0
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-V7LTQ-fd8c

Oil Gang, Butterz & Pitch Controllers are now doing the releases thing properly, which is great to see.

Trim is back at his best after being in a weird memory crisis last year. It seems that war keeps him going:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzoaHrMYj3s

Chronik is out of jail, and sounds terrifying these days, and of course Wiley after the avalanche of new music last year has reached an apex of creative zen:

christ that ruff squad set from the 22nd is really something.

It really was something, as was the one from the 29th - I guess these are Ruff Sqwad sets on Deja Vu from 22nd/29th December 2003.

Unfortunately, I lost my copies about 7 years ago, and all I can find online is 16 mins of the 29th December set. Does anyone still have them??
