    Best of 2016

    I like this tune too. I also like listening to it being out of touch with the R1 playlist-kinda stuff, so you get non of the teen context, just the tune.

    rolling back to the future garage/post-dubstep/alt-funkstep/intelli-2step etc thread

    I don't know how wide you want to go in answering this question, but here's my high level take on what happened to the different post dubstep trajectories... The Hessle guys got very established in the wider house & techno circuit. included here in this cluster are people like Hodge, Bruce...

    rolling back to the future garage/post-dubstep/alt-funkstep/intelli-2step etc thread

    oh ello dissensus my old friend :) so broadly corpsey i agree with you, much of the post-dubstep stuff was wishy washy and forgettable, often even at the time. i think you can think of things that stand up to the test of time, Girl Unit "IRL" for example, but one example doesn't discount what...

    road rap meets afrobeat/funky thread ting

    ;) It's been cool to hate on Donae'o for a while (the house purists hate what he did to "we belong to the night") and the grime guys didn't take him that seriously but he comes up trumps quite often (and misses too). I like "My Circle", this is great too, we played it on a recent show:

    dunno, i guess it just connects with stuff I tend to like: bassy, bleepy, hypnotic, rolling. it was through this thread i first heard Truce actually, a Supa D birthday bash set.

    Kept listening to sets of this stuff and last year I found some tracks that worked for me, within the clusters of moods I connect most with. So this year I'm putting out "Be there/Uhh" by Truce on 12" and digi. Thought I'd let you lot know from early.

    Funky/London/UK House

    this uk funky roundtable is hilarious, is it any wonder the thing fell apart if this is how they interact with even basic discussions on their scene?!

    Funky/London/UK House

    "coming back" is the biggest myth ever. I was at the Tate Britain "production masterclass" with MJ Cole recently and all these youngers were like "blah blah to the tech talk MJ, WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE GARAGE REVIVAL? IS IT ALL COMING BACK?? ITS BACK NOW, ISNT IT? ISNT IT?!" And MJ was like...
