whatever but within the space of a few years it just turned into a commercial sound and scene that attracted bellends to clubs that were all about wearing designer labels, Bronson and swigging Kristal.

Enter Edwand!

    OLB coming in like a wrecking ball!

    Handful of tracks that still sound good. Nu Birth Anytime, Roy Davis Jr Gabriel and MJ Cole Sincere spring to mind.

      Just watched a few minutes of a DJ EZ Boiler Room, he’s about 4ft 5.

      Hold my beer!

      Shock horror - a music genre had some belting tunes, some crap ones and when it went mainstream it got rinsed with people making money

      This was the only good thing to come out of the UK garage scenezz.

        A good friend of mine grew up with Deekline.

        Which is nice.

        KLANG.

        It’s great to see Dave, Alistair and headwand all having something in common. Even if it is something so absolutely dreadful in every way imaginable.

          Have ledged it with Alistair in person.

          Sasha at Fabric last December.

          Hursty was in the house too!

          Millsy Bo Selecta appears to be getting a kicking these days, but I bloody loved it at the time. (Can’t stand Keith Lemon though)

              I was at Pacha, Ibiza in around 2005 or so and Harry Romero played Double 99 - Ripgroove which was very random in the context of the rest of his set, but it got an unbelievable reaction, the place went nuts

                gcw Double 99 - Ripgroove

                Massive tune, but it’s surely more speed garage.

                  gcw I remember turning on channel 4 after coming back from the pub and the sketch above was on. I had never heard of Bo Selecta and had a seething hatred for speed garage and Craaaig Daaavid, so I ended up in a pretzel position from laughing so hard.

                  • gcw replied to this.

                      Millsy just the whole concept of it was brilliant, with Kes and his piss bag. Then you had Michael Jackson, Mel B etc. Quite original I thought

                      It wasn’t until years later that I realised that the girl in the Jacko sketches (Bubbles) was Caroline Flack

                        Bo was genius at the time. Hard to believe Lemon deteriorated into such an unlikeable, unfunny cunt.
