Not quite jackin, but thought this was best thread to post it in. Anyone got a track ID for this tune Marcus Nasty has been playing, sounds like Timbaland and Aaliyah doin funky - with squark noises, tumbling drums and amazing marimba/string arrangement? I'll try and up a sample for it. It's on the 13th feb rinse show at 1hr7mins.

Lorenzo just announced a 10 day tour of South Africa!! Hannah Wants went last summer too. + there are all these videos of South African girls and guys doing some funny shuffle dance to Tom Garnet tunes. It's obviously a thing!

PS some serious danger on the free D/L from man like Pantha!!!

Who are these guys then??
No nonsense dancefloor ready fiyah! Loving this and 'Baby', also up for sale on bigtunes.

It's funny, with Jackin you have Lorenzo literally in a league of his own, a second tier of people like Nick Hannam, Tom Shorterz, Burkie and... DJ Pantha? Raymond Bliff? Aggz? And then just fuck tons of these nobody producers who make one or two huge tracks and then loads of swag electrohouse, or are just never heard of again.
Also Love to the Max is out on We R Bass on the 11th. Which means one of my only jackin exclusives is about to become a lot less exclusive :(

I do quite like that fugees sampling track on the other page. Might be the first jackin tune I've really liked. Does really remind me of that Trouble & Bass, Drop The Lime kinda style of things back in 2007.

I think there was quite a few tracks on that tip back then, I use to have a load. I think they died on a laptop way back tho and I only just remembered the name of Trouble & Bass let alone any of the track names.

ah ha

They mention guys like DJ Q too.

Been looking through the photo's on Facebook from this weekend just gone 02:31 and there are some amazing shots in there.

Here's one I really liked:



Seriously though the photos don't do it justice. There is no sense of how into the music literally everyone is from them. Was giving a friend a lift home the other day from work explaining why it was so good and ended saying that it was because it was one of those rare occasions where there were no people there half into it or similar. There was this club and large group of people you didn't fully know about all into something in a way that you either have never seen or won't have seen for years. Has taken a couple of weeks since I went to fully digest the experience. All I want to do is go back!

Hey everyone, I've been avidly reading this thread for a while now, thanks for all the invaluable updates!!

I've just come back from a short tour of China, playing at Shelter in Shanghai and Dada in Beijing and wanted to report that jackin' went down really well at both parties. It was also amazing to bump into NATO and Mr Faucet there!! :D:D:D

Well I guess mate is a bit of a stretch, I met DJ Endless a few times back when Goth Trad was hosting a monthly Dubstep event in Shibuya (Actually googled it and looks like Back to Chill is on tonight at club asia, you playing? I might try and reach). I was a bit drunk and got really excited with him when he played a few grime bits, havent met him since then which I guess is a year n a half ago but got him on facebook/instagram

Yeah the jackin went off at Shelter, NATO went a bit mad when he heard it. Such an obvious thing to say but it sounds so much better over a good system.

As an aside, there are places that push good music in China, and not even just in Shanghai or Beijing, but yeah Shelter and Dada are two of the main places for it.

Likewise gyt_o, was great to meet you too. Hope you've managed to get a bit more sleep this week.

My spidey-sense started tingling when I heard Snapbacks and tattoos getting mixed in and I was like Moses parting the red sea on my way to the dancefloor, if the red sea was a handful of drunk ppl.

Honestly it was just refreshing to hear some music that I couldn't resist dancing to. Big up gyt_o!

Ah missed out on that BTC, it's mad Frankie's got Room 3 Jackin!! Wonder how it went. I played the upstairs there a few times when Endless was a resident but that was a year or so ago now.

>Datwun : def up for drinks when you arrive! where abouts will you be based?
