I don't know if this is technically UK bass but it's pretty grimey and he is from the UK: Hudson Mohawke - Thunder Bay. His new EP drops in a month, Butter was so-so but I like the sound of this so far.

So a couple of mixes have floated on out there over the past week or so that's really grabbed my attention. First is Grievous Angel's Grime mix. A nice bundle of stuff from the early to to around 06/07. Pick it up here. Those of you raised on strictly Butterz instrumental stuff be warned. This is the original full strength stuff.

Some heavy tracks on there, loving the vocals in the second half. Classic bars, plus this Nasty Crew - Run 4 Cover on a Rossi B & Luca production I'd never heard before. Anyone know the riddim from 36:20 or so? Sounds like it might be a Footsie tune with that reggae sample..

The new NGUZUNGUZU (or however it's spelled) EP is out and it's alright. There's potential there, but it's still a little rough around the edges.

It is nice to see their label (Fade To Mind) trying to bring the Night Slugs sound stateside, though.

Their XLR8R mix is pretty good but the Kingdom remix is the best thing on the ep, imo. They do a better job remixing other people's tracks.

Actually we were just talking about this a page or two ago. I quite liked the A side, but I thought the B-side was just a bit of a James Blake knock-off. Though I was also casting doubts on the use of 7 inches, and if it's just a way to appeal to the record buying indie crowd or get some big label attention. Should've been stuck on a 12" :colbert: or a 10 for ultra cool bonus points.

Oops, I guess after what he's put out lately I tend to skim over things described as James Blake-esque. I'm also liking this Vesicle track, Smoke Curls, at the moment. Kinda glitchy and very atmospheric.

I finally got around to buying Kingdom's newest single (Take Me) it's pretty alright. Interesting that Kingdom would release it with the acapella, but that seems like something that he would do, hoping he would get a lot of cool R&B type edits/remixes because of it.

Nice, didn't know this dropped. I dunno what it is with this guy but I always like the flips more, really enjoying If You Buck, same with YOU from the Mind Reader single.

And there is always Wiley's new LP to make up for it then. And by make up I mean possibly mildly disappointed. Boom Blast is probably the weakest cut, but the rest is sounding a bit hit and miss. And in all honestly I've not got a clue whether to cry in joy or horror at "I'm Skanking". I can see that being rinsed as the standard phone reply for the next few months. "what you up to man?" "I'm skanking!"

Hit or miss indeed, always glad to see a proper grime album and every disc seems to have a good track or two but that's still a weak percentage of bangers. Can I Have A Taxi Please has the best beat on the album and it's wasted on an interlude/outro. :( I wish there was more of a riddim culture in the genre, I'd love to hear some MC's spray bars over it.

Aha, thank you. Sounds like the kinda thing that could easily make a good day turn bad! Scrufizzer is nice, but that Lady Leshurr joint is a little too Nicki Minaj. It sucks how grime has been so influenced by the US sound while the UK bass sound is finally starting to cross into the mainstream across the pond.

Hey guys, I'm pretty new to this, but I've been getting into Ruff Sqwad and I'm on the hunt for some more grime. I'm wondering what are some good starting points? I looked over the last few pages and am checking out what I've seen there and in the OP, I thought that Tempa T track ruled and I like the Dizzy Rascal I've heard.

Also, what are some good sites to keep up with this? I'm in America and had literally never even heard the term grime until super recently, so I have virtually no exposure and I am completely isolated from the culture.
