I quite like that new Rudimental tune but the intro reminds me a bit of Jamie Cullen. :eek:
Think that tune at 22 mins is Pandemonium by Paul Woolford:
There's some mad tunes right near the start of the set actually. That one with the horns at about 3 mins...

Cheers Andy. had a feeling you might know. That whole section where he goes from pandemonium into Rudimental and then squark is just brilliant. And I'm convinced Crispy must be related to D Double.

They def have similar sorts of voices, for sure. Him and Dream over World On Fire right at the end of the set just sounds amazing, whenever I get done listen to it I'm hype and I've got a big dumb smile on my face, luvvit.
Got my CD copy of Intruder/Hurt Inside through the post this morning too, good times.

in his last Rinse set Ben announces Elgato's Blue is gonna get pressed by Hessle. Easily one of the tracks of the year for me--very happy to hear it's getting a release.

not new but i wonder if hatcha is into funky (though this reminds me most of old dubstep circa 2004 really)

new r1 ryders ep too
i love these guys
track 2 is a bit boring but 1 and 3 are the ones. track 1 (just a remix but still brill) is SO funky, in the old fashioned sense. if larry blackmon and joey beltram made uk funky i imagine it might sound a bit like this.

heard hotsteppa on choice fm last night saying he didnt know if funky was still posed for big things or if it had 'been and gone' but to be fair, he had just played anthem after anthem (falling by ny - why hasnt she done anything since this?, in the air, tell me - dissapointing how nothing katy b has done has been as good as tell me or as i when theyre trying to push her as a solo artist, etc etc) so it could easily seem like there isnt much in the way of vocal anthems compared to a while back. that rudimental track should be bigger i think.
