Yeah he bigged me up in the email but this is a nice mix, check it.

Shaun Bloodworth is a well known and excellent photographer who is best known in music circles for his portrait work for Rinse. Those amazing pictures of people like Geeneus, Chef, Skream etc? They’re by Shaun. He did the Margins Music album cover too. So he’s a badman basically. Plus, for this year’s Sonar, Mary Anne Hobbs commissioned Shaun to make a film to act as a backdrop for the artists performing on her stage. This took things to another level, with Shaun using the video function on his stills camera to shoot video of raves in Sheffield, as well as filming video portraits of particular ravers.

The film turned out great.

And then he wanted to have it out there with a soundtrack – and got a slot to premiere it, at prestigious Sheffield art cinema the Showroom. He had someone else lined up to do the soundtrack, but they couldn’t do it, so a week last Wednesday Shaun asked if I could do it.

By midnight that night, I’d delivered. And Wednesday this week, we went to the premiere!

That was an amazing night, with Mark from Wall of Sound and 6Music doing a speech on how amazing Sheffield is for inspirational music, and various art figures and Council big wigs in attendence. Best of all, Martin Ware from the Human League and Heaven 17 was there talking about the great new film about Heaven 17 that also premiered. It was cool!

And now, Shaun’s film is online. Titled Minds Locked Together, it’s a portrait of Sheffield clubbing, putting the crowd to the forefront. There are various DJs and MCs in the film, most importantly and amusingly the mighty Rodigan, but it’s really all about the people. It’s scenius in action.

My sound track starts off with jungle, including the title track, before sliding down into house, funky and sort-of-dubstep. It went off on the big system in the Showroom and I’m really pleased with the way the whole thing comes together.

You can see it here.

Please blog this, write about it etc, it’s really worth supporting!

The line up is AMAZING!

Dusk and Blackdown playing Margin’s Music live – I remixed the album, got them into Ableton, now they’re playing it out! But with a massive twist – they’ve got a whole live band too, including Farah. AAAAAAAANNDD… their show is featuring Durrty Goodz!!!! Being on the same line up as Durrty Goodz is an ambition fulfilled

But that’s not all… there’s United Vibes (LHF Vibzin), Scratcha DVA, AND Starkey, who is absolutely fantastic live! I’m so glad to be playing with him again. He’s electrifying!

Dunno when I’m on – probably fairly low down the bill given how big the names are – but it’s going to be a massive night!

£10 to get in. 9.30 kick off. Tickets on sale now from here.

Move Down Low VIP - out on Soul Jazz

Yup. I got a release on Soul Jazz records. I am soooo excited! Taken almost a year to come out but I am so pleased.

It’s out on Monday but its in the Soul Jazz web shop now.

It’s a new funky remix of Move Down Low. The main draw is the VIP – which is, though I say so myself, absolutely massive. Goes off every time in the dance. Best thing I’ve ever done. All massive drums, big drops, snatch of Rubi Dan’s vocal – latin funky apocalypse. Like the Ice Rink b-side mix but bigger and ruder. Sinden’s been caning it for months.

The A-side is the original funky mix – not the one that came out last year on my Devotional Dubz imprint, the one I did for Kode 9. As has passed into legend, I made the tune, sent it to Kode that night, he cut it the next day and played it at the first of Rinse’s Beyond funky sessions. He’s been playing it ever since and it’s on the new DJ Kicks mix CD he’s done. So it’s a result all round.

Will be in all the usual stores any day now.

Listen to the A-side here.

I’ve got a load of tunes now, too many for any future album. I’m going to give away some of the better ones.

There might be some paid-for ones in the future. I also want to start hosting dubz in there too when I work it out.

I’m at http://grievousangel.bandcamp.com

I’ve got two tracks up so far. Darkness is that folk / garage tune that Mary Anne played and which was up on my site for a while. It’s good, I’d do a better mixdown now though. There’s a load more folk tunes I want to do. There’s an Eliza Carthy sample that’s been going through my head for months, for example.

Erzulie is this wonky thing that’s the companion piece to Harpy (on the flip of Soundclash).

There’ll probably be some funky up there soon.

“On the Wire will broadcast the second art of “Rudies On the Wire” on Saturday 20th February 2010, 10 through till 12 midnight on BBC Radio Lancashire (103.9FM, 95.5FM, 104.5FM – not on DAB or MW) the show will also be found on the net at www.onthewire.uk.com.

Forthcoming for 2010 and onwards is a Randy’s special with Clive Chin (from Beijing), an overdue retrospective on Desmond Dekker, a three part King Tubby’s Special including guest selectors and a riddim-riot from Rhythm-Master Glen Brown.”

Amply demonstrated at Doc Daneeka’s fantastic set at the Harley last night. The pure rhythm, garage-tempo bass and drum, massive subs and crisp beats, that’s what’s working right now.

Though interestingly the biggest reaction of the night was for speed garage, really made the whole venue jump. Bodes well for my remix of Gremino’s Bee and Cee which pretty much merked it on Blackdown and Dusk’s Rinse show in January.

I missed Ben UFO last night though, just too knackered to make it. Would have been good to see what the best DJ in the country is drawing for at the moment to triangulate with Doc Daneeka and OneMan.

Yes. I’m playing Exodus / DMZ next month.

Warming up for El B and the magnificent Heatwave.

Most of my dubstep heroes in room 1. Kode, Mala, Loe, Scuba, Silkie…

Absolutely fucking mental. I cannot believe it.

They want 80s dancehall and “your own productions”. So there’ll be some new funky stuff, maybe the Shabba / Wicked Inna Bed remix that’s I’ve been working. Dying to play some Congo Natty too – probably Your Love, since it’s the greatest record ever made.

This is so fantastic…

All of which shows nothing more than that I’ve got a few more grey hairs than the eternally youthful Mr Ingram

2009 has been the most exciting year since 2005, loads of great stuff coming out and the clubs have been FIRING, people have really gone for it. Every time I’ve played out the vibe has been fantastic, less so in London obviously but everywhere else has been cracking. People have wanted it. Bad.

I’ve loved the way that funky has turned so much around. Both in itself – Cooly G’s Love Dub is my tune of the year, alongside her Dis Boy – but also in its ripples and echoes. Dubstep heads took the hint and created a spectrum of new sounds from Ramadanman / Pearson Sound, Brackles, Untold and many more. The best of the old garage heads saw funky for what it was – an attempt to deal with the unfinished business of UK Garage, and Zed Bias and MJ Cole made some fantastic tracks as a result. Mind you, most of them aren’t out yet.

Dubstep itself was all about the dark rollage of people Kryptic Minds and SP:MC, the psychedelic grime of Joker, and the percussive deepness of Peverelist, Ramadanman and Untold. I’ve done quite a good mix of this stuff for Inverted Audio: http://www.inverted-audio.co.uk/$blog/2009/12/29/_i_a__mix_07_grievous_angel?_c=1

Musically it’s been a big year for me. There’s nothing like seeing a big room go off to your tunes and I’ve seen my funky and garage gear light up crowds – it’s an enormous privilege, I’ll treasure those memories forever. Kode in particular has been caning Move Down Low for months. Loads of DJs have been playing my stuff… Skream, Blackdown, Atki2, Tim Dub Boy, MJ Cole, Jamie Vex’d, Paul Hotflush, Mary Anne Hobbs… I’ve put out three singles (Loser, Soundclash, my funky refix of the grime classic Ice Rink ) that have done well. There are some more to come in 2010. I’ve done a DJ mix for Radio 1 and had loads of play on the pirates. I’ve done guest mixes for loads of websites. I’ve just put another album out, my remix / DJ mix / dub album of the entirety of Blackdown and Dusk’s Margins Music. It’s been one hell of a ride. And I moved into the house I built.

It’s been a great year!

It’s very percussive, deep, techy dubstep – the signature tunes here are probably from Peverelist and Ramadanman so that gives you an idea of what to expect. Plus a bit of techno-y funky, some future garage, some 3:2 to start, and a cheeky bit of r’n'b over thdriving 4×4. I am REALLY pleased with it. There are a couple of nice little dubs from Paul Hotflush on there that not many people have too.

Track list is in the lyrics tab but it’s here for your convenience:

Narcossist: Metronome (Grievous Angel Remix)
Grievous Angel: Culture Killer (Discomix)
Scuba: Klinik
Scuba: Volt
Untold: Dante
Pangaea: You And I
23Hz & Numaestro: Zumo (Sully Remix)
Ramadanman: Revenue
Peverelist: Infinity is Now
Ramadanman: Blimey
SP:MC Taiko Dub
Landslide: Parables (Ramadanman Instrumental Mix)
Kode 9 Vs LD: Bad
Cooly G: Dis Boy
Dfrnt: Headspace (Scuba Version)
Si Begg: I Do Not Dream (Scuba)
Uncle Bakongo: Baga
Jill Scott: A Long Walk
2562: Enforcers
Cooly G: Love Dub Refix

Go there for it.

These two volumes are two of the best mixes I’ve ever done. Both done live in one go and then split up and edited a tiny bit.

The new one is great. Jill Scott and Erykah over heavy dubstep rollers is a FABULOUS combination.

Think I need to get some new pix done.

Dub Boy showing why he’s one of the UK’s greatest DJs!

I’m playing some deep space dubstep, bit of garage and pure fire funky. Got loads of fresh dubs and exclusives as well as a load of old stuff.

And it got played on BBC Asian Network last night by the redoubtable Bobby Friction, who is actually one of the best radio DJs in the UK. Linkage with listen again facilities now up.

In other news, Kiss 100 DJ and crucial new music maven Sinden has been in touch and is also playing some of the new GA gear that is about to hit the stores, so stay tuned to him too.

after years of involvement in dust science I am delighted to now be one of their artists! And I am part of a corking free ep – but hurry to get it…

here’s the info…

To celebrate the label relaunch, Dust Science has a new EP of established and new artists who are based in the label’s hometown of Sheffield (UK). The “In The North EP” seeks to re-establish Sheffield’s reputation as the touchstone of high quality electronic musical innovation.

The Black Dog offer Tesco, a chunky, rolling tech-house with delightful Sheffield-style hooky pads. Carl Taylor’s Walk On By is a moody slice of Omar S-style electronic soul. New signing Grievous Angel, whose dubstep, garage and uk funky releases have torn up pirate radio and dancefloors for the last three years, delivers a heavily swung slice of percussive, techy dubstep. Youthful wobble mentalist The Bass Soldier provides a heavy slice of electro-soaked gutter house that will literally shake the room into life.

GRIEVOUS ANGEL MEETS BLACKDOWN AND DUSK UPTOWN!!!!!!!

It gives you a fair idea of what it’s like… but the actual mix is much better… it’s a real headfuck. Disorientating…

Thank you Boomkat!

Soundclash is the best thing I’ve ever done. Maybe the best thing I’ll ever do. It’s massive, it moves the crowd every time people play it. But it’s a choon – a song – it’s not a mix tool, though Atki2 uses it that way, it’s a record that people connect to. It’s worth having.

Harpy compared to Wiley… like that… Harpy’s arpeggiated heavy jazz wonk out of eski-bizniz… I’ll take that…
