![]() ![]() the one after alias is an obvious slam dunk on the tip of my tongue but the one after tc4 is what i really want Picking up on r|t|c's jamiroquai/zero 7 references, even the more tasteful parts of DJ Q's sound have a kind of trebly artificiality (and perhaps superficiality) to them - the signifiers rather than the "substance" of tastefulness.Įxcellent excellent. The above is less relevant for what I say about future garage than for what I say about Q. ― Tim F, Thursday, 5 July 2012 23:18 (1 month ago) This (rather than pop vs abstraction or lightness vs heaviness) is probably the key point of distinction between "future garage" and the stuff that Q plays, only it's even more extreme now, future garage being "deep" to the point where it has to shun anything that might interfere with that, and the Q interzone retaining (albeit as a kind of reigning principle rather than a clearly defined sonic property) the sickly harshness of bassline. This is where a distinction between say 1999 garage and 2001 garage really makes sense, the earlier stuff still retaining a kind of vinyl warmth and almost-"deepness" and the later stuff sounding like the contrast has been turned up - heavier but more plasticky beats, exaggerated bass but also exaggerated treble. I think the real demarcation these days is less between abstract vs songful and more along production values lines. why is this the one time the old dj gets to stay on? there's nothing q can't do that cameo can - q is an exceptional grime dj on the sly and has all the contacts just the same (especially as grime booms outside of london), he is the hot thing in the clubs, he produces excellently and has the media coverage, and his sets include, encompass and reinvent every facet of ukg new and old. Getting back to the subject of q, i just can't stress enough how much of a travesty it is him leaving and cameo getting to stay on as garage tsar. but a sister should have a vibrant life of her own and not be hostage to the brother the way it looks like it'll be now. (you could even argue 1xtra has had a direct role in shaping that). Thing is 1xtra ought to be the sister station though, hauling it out of its ghetto and positioning the station like that was its great success of recent years - and besides, the landscape has changed and blurred enough so the two's remit has grown closer anyway.
