IP - Si is one of our longest standing collaborators - he nigh on 'discovered' me , back in 1991 - we founded Mosquito Records together back in 94... He sometimes drops by the board , but not so much ..

i just watched the video si, and i have to say i liked it.
I would like to see it at 640 by 480. Nice After effects work.

Style council will like you.

cant wait to hear your album

[invisibleplanet]

cheers Cristian - no such thing as too much info ²me :)

[old skool]

Si Beggs music is barmy .. and I love it ....

Si Futures, Noodles, Cabbage Boy ...

Never fails to make me listen... and laugh .....

[phil]

This new Directors cut album is gonna be the bollax, im glad hes doing some banging ragga shit with some mpc2000 shuffle, swing shit tweaked the fucked out. someone needed to do that. Im sick of noodling shity little electronic music, i want bangers, itss all about bangers.

[Lady E]

and mash?

[phil]

Im all for mash, but i don't like getting mash up anymore.

[phil]

I reckon si begg is gonna blow up after the release of this album. and im not riding his dick or anything before those comments come flying in.. it's just this album has the elements i have been after..

that more fire crew style... but tweaked out shakers. i really cant wait for this..

[Lady E]

well im excited to hear it now!

[simon]

One of my all time favourites is Buckfunk 3000 - Planet Rock Future Shock.

Totally blew me away when I first heard it.

Nice one si, looking forward to hearing your new album.

[MUX]

i once read a review on 'Buckfunk 3000 - Planet Rock Future Shock' and it called it 'bubblegum trance from hell'
hahaha

sounds like the biggest Mutt of genres ive ever heard... but in such a good way...
there is a german dancefloor hit ala 'welcome' in the middle somewhere...

[V Knid esq]

That preview sounds ruff... I'm quite excited. The last album was really good but kind of stayed in nuskool/electro territory a little bit too much for my tastes. I've been hoping he'd veer further into bling territory ever since Locked In Locked On with Hairy Butter (it's on the Lo Records sampler album) which to me is to garridge what Squarepusher's "Conumber" was to d&b. Total pirate mayhem. That preview download for Directors Cut sounds like spinning across the dial in south London, only extra glossy and rah. I hope it sells a fuckload.

However, let us not forget that garridge has moved on now - it's all about the roll deep now, slow rollers, neptunes shuffle and gabba kicks.

[phil]

word is bond.

[grobelaar]

They just played a couple of tracks on Mary Ann Hobbes - Breezeblock - sounds really phat - can't wait to get this one...

[pille'ocheoni]

we got the promo last week, and its good.... lots of vocals, and 2steppy stuff. not my bag, but quality and the technical aspect is awesome. he always has great sound.

i agree... but i like more the old, rougher stuff of simon.

[old skool]

I like the idea that he's made some 2step type tracks, looking forward to hearing those. In fact, that's a whole other thread ... comin' up ....

[Lady E]

yep i stayed up to hear the meteorites played - til 1.30 am, most unlike me!
she called the album 'dub the magic dragon' but never mind.

also radio one are goign to transmit the meteorites show from sonar either on the breezeblock or john peel, apparently, in the couple of weeks after sonar...


i shall post details when i have them

[MUX]

oh! so that's why you were on so late last night then..
12.30 am and your were still hangout around the board

spread the metorites details when u know them.. sonar is gonna be a home streaming experiance once again this year..

[grobelaar]

It was an all round top show - I must tune in more often - new tracks from Si Begg, some stuff from the new Radioactiveman album - the Meteorites, I must remember to tune in more often...

It seems like everyone is off doing interesting things, that are just banging, maybe its me just getting old and mellowing...
