No need to alert the media though please don't tell my insurance provider, OK. Yeah Krim has posted some tracks that are just too infectious not to move to. I believe I have told him so. Dave's track burn.Quote:
Beardedone said...this is freaky funky stuff - I actually was moving to this - note that only Kriminal's stiff has ever had that effect on me.
That's the most shocking thing I've read this morning. Is Krim aware of this?
Sorry, Beardedone. This was too good to let pass by.
Cheers,
Gordon

It's gone now I think - "stiff" instead of "stuff"mchlwlsn wrote:Beardedone, look closer for your typo.
Music with dinner is an insult both to the cook and the violinist.

Regarding dancing to my track Jump And Wind....
Jump and Wind as well as Warbug's entry this month are called "Drum N Bass" as a genre (see also jungle). People dance to the Bass Line or the steady snare hitting on the 2 and 4 of the songs not the hyperspeed polybeats themselves. You could always tell someone who just didnt get it at a rave when they'd be convulsing and having spasms to the fast breakbeats (and quickly became tired out) vs. people who were stepping to the bass line.
Take a visit down to Movement or your local DnB night.. or stay at home and watch one of the DnB documentaries.
The basslines in DnB almost always are half the tempo of the track, therefore a 180BPM DnB track is actually danced to at 90 BPM.
Most people with a sense of hip hop, reggae, etc pick up on this fairly quickly, it is even easier when the tune has vocals at half speed (see Shy FX- Shake it, DJ Marky's - LK or DK and Dylan's Barcelona) for example...
Or this tune from a forthcoming DnB album..

I always enjoyed jumping around like a madman, though...
To be honest I don't think many people in Swansea did "get it"... the club was always empty...

Vurt i'm suprised you didn't realise some people here may have never heard or understood drum n bass and judging from the amount of people who commented that they wouldn't know how to dance to it i was only trying to help. I didn't say "DANCE, DANCE to the HYPERSOUL you peons!"
It was more like a guide to someone who maybe never heard music in 3/4 and explaining what a waltz is and how it is danced. Or a tango for that matter....
Nor was I saying someone should like DnB any more than any other genre of music, dance music or otherwise. I like good music, period. I thought you knew that. I'd dare not ever tell someone what they should like but i did want to help people understand how people dance to DnB because i'd hazard a guess that less than 10 percent of this forum ever ventured into a DnB club night.
