>eh? Plasticman's tunes sounds nothing like Dizzee, he's not even an MC. no but plasicman and wiley and dizzee all came from the same movement. its really not that hard to figure out. roll deep tunes are in the same sub sub category as plasticman. simple. >To just dismiss an entire group of musicmakers like this is >ridiculous. Despite your explanation of how knowledgeable you are, it >still sounds like you don't really know what you're talking about. >For example, you claim to have been passing on his stuff years ago, >but he's barely been releasing tunes for a year. to be entirely honest, i cant exactly remember when the first white labels he put out were around. he was on the ukgarage worldwide forums back when i was writing reviews for them. around summer 2002 is when this nonsense took over and my garage buying dropped to basically zero. i remember passing on dizze's "luv u" as well as numerous other joints by all those related cats. and i remember listening to dubplate.net's stuff when the first plasticman joints were on there. and i didnt like them then, and dont like them now. i may be talking trash but i was way into that scene when the 8 bar / grime / whatever sound took over and ive been an observer since. >There is some fresh innovative music coming out of this scene, and I >suspect if you believed the tracks were by Tommy Hamilton (or even >Aaron Carl instrumentals) then you'd feel differently. maybe if i didnt watch it kill everything that made uk garage a good form of dance music i wouldnt hate it so much, youre right. but i certainly wouldnt be playing the records and probably wouldnt ever go out of my way to hear it. im a reactionary type fellow, but if the music was good id get over it. tom ________________________________________________________________ andythepooh.com
