makes me miss the days when Marcus played stuff like this mixed in with the hard stuff. Funky has got far too blokey over the last year or so.

New Marcus & Funk Butcher might satisfy your wistful yearnings for girly vocals Benny: "Be in Love" Marcus Nasty and Funk Butcher feat. Jae Elle. Quite feelin' it.
 
if by girly you mean lots of watery vocals, then im ok with funky becoming more blokey. ;P id be happy if there was a bit less dubstep influence.

Couldn't disagree any more. I love that track and mostly everything Jae Elle puts her voice in, Beautiful with Dj Eastwood is another anthemic one, and most of what she did with Whitecoat is the same. I'm very happy that she's starting to be sort of a muse for a lot of funky producers.
I don't really hear anything dubstep-ish in there.

Also, and I don't know if this is exactly the case but I found this in most places that talk about funky on the internet, I resent the implication that UK funky needs to resemble UK garage to be validated.

on a more serious note someone got stabbed outside either 2AD or Scala Sat night.

Does anyone know if Madone's got any more forthcoming stuff?

Was surprised to see it all in Old Street, few of my mates have been on the tech/minimal things for a while but didnt know it was that big?

A DJ mate of mine says that the 'soulful' side of house is really drying up in London

Im out the loop on this stuff

DJ Cheeky even said it on that 1Xtra 10 years of grime doc. something like "we were pleased to see the risk assessment report for Eskimo Dance come back as "medium." all the goons listen to house now..."

I always thought those dances were round bank and stuff? Guess with Old Street turning all TOWIE now then Aquarium is an ideal home for a Sunday session.

Might start going and getting into it. Pop a bottle of champs between 15 of us.

track ID please!
what's that track that Roska plays loads, with the beat built round a sample of an MC - sounds like wiley? - going 'brap, brap, brap' ?
