Can someone explain to me how the video for “Put a Donk On It” has nearly 4,000,000 You Tube views? Preferably, somebody British, who can launch into a diatribe involving the words “chav” and “rubbish.” Dan and Dom, I’m looking at you.
Does the Blackout Crew believe that the supreme mathematics of modern music can be ascertained by snorting crushed Liquid G tablets and listening to A.B. Logic’s “The Hitman?” At least, Britain has to reckon with their own, LMFAO. Someone needs to stop this insanity (no Susan Powter).

Basically, in as broad a term as possible: there’s always been two schools of dance music in the UK (post-acid house, at least). The southern school is the stuff you get in the US, anything from drum n bass to 2-step to Basement Jaxx, the stuff that gets critical appraisal. The northern school is the stuff that’s ignored by the media and resultantly you’d have never heard of: I mean, despite them having big hits over here, I doubt you could hum a tune by Ultrabeat or Flip N Fill or Darren Styles. The northern style is usually sneered at for being “chavvy”, ie, the same “oh shit the white working class, hide your valuables” approach you get in some liberal US music criticism as well. Blackout Crew are thoroughly from the northern school.

^ What he said.
Although chavvy rubbish would probably have served just as well.

Makes sense. Thanks for the edification, gentlemen.

Ayo Weiss how come you don’t write movie reviews any more? I was scoping out the Stylus site (Bring back Stylus!) and I noticed you penned a couple film reviews back in the day.

That’s a good question, I probably should.
