Daym, dissensus does jackin! V. Excited to hear the results.
All this talk of production makes me wanna get involved though!
Does anyone have a keygen for logic for me to look at and legally use for a variety of purposes that do not include illegally bootlegging very expensive software?
continuum: Everywhere I Turn - Craig Price & Paul Lawrence
It's on bigtunes!

Paul Lawrence has been SMASHIN it up lately actually on bigtunes. I reckon he must have just released a bunch of tunes he had at the same time because these last two weeks almost half of the bangers on the site have his name to them. I wonder if he's any relation to Chris...
NATO: Yeah G, try and make it over! There's a slither of tatami floor for you to stay on~ My mate Frankie's (got some big mixes up here
https://soundcloud.com/frankly-sick) living out there already and has worked his way up the Tokyo nuum/UK Bass/Rave/underground dance scene! They even ran a night called 'JACKIN X UKG', so the word's getting out already.
Corpsey: You DEFINITELY should have come to 2:31!!! It was honestly tied for the best night out I've ever had with - funny enough considering maybe my comments on UK bass (it had it's moment!) - Ben UFO & Joy O at Fabric back in 2011. Pure hardcore vybez, literally 100% of people loved up and friendly - water sharing, dancing with strangers, fishy hand dances - music was on point all night, and the soundsystem at Rainbow is orgasmically good. Brackles smashed it up actually! Did the perfect warm up set.
But yeah, as you say, it's rave music, it's literally the most fun shit to dance to in the universe and you can go all night. I went to see DJ EZ in Brixton last night, and like obviously he was good, though all the other DJs were pretty swag, bate chart hip hop, garage banger after garage banger with no respite. It made me realise that I'm kind of done with garage, at least if the DJs not going to do something interesting with it or re-contextualise it, make it strange with their mixing. For me though jackin basically feels like everything I love about garage - almost the exact same 'feeling' to it - but it's new, I've not heard the tracks played out a million times, the scene moves so fast that every time you hear one of the DJs play they'll be playing tracks you've not heard before etc.
It's interesting enough - experimentation in the warp-donk-owl zone - and it's got plenty of that post-modern buzz of just working out and through the references. The rhythm section has nice garagey inflictions and the drums has a lot more swing than most house. But yeah what it is a fully thriving, functioning rave scene. wotsnottolike.

It used to be on bigtunes but it got taken down. I got it direct from the man himself who kindly gave it to me because "it's really old and I don't do that style of music anymore", so I'm sure he wouldn't mind me passing it on!
