WTF is Grime?

Here's a blurb from rephlex:

Grime. Sublow. Dubstep. It's Music. Different people call it
different things, depending on when they discovered it. In
the 80's, maybe it was House, Techno and Electro. In the
90's it was UK-G, Drum and Bass, Breaks or whatever. Now
there are so many terms for it that the journalists can’t
pidgeon-hole it any more. This is a good thing - it's music.
Moody music. Multifunctional, multifaceted music created by
Humans with Brains, Hearts, Machines & Electricity. Music
that’s great for dancing to in clubs, or submerging
yourself within your headphones, your car, your home,
wherever. It's instrumental dance music, but it's the
perfect forum for the best MC's and vocalists. We at Rephlex
call it Grime to publicise to the people at large, outside
of the specialist world of it's producers. The purists might
debate the name, but while they do that, crews around the
globe are uniting in this strong & fresh dance movement. In
this age of Information Technology, people are able to
easily find real quality that they actually want, without
being spoon-fed compromised product. Now, it is a time of
change and the soundtrack is Grime.

It's to promote a upcoming event on the 23rd...i'd greatly
appreciate some sugestions that best illustrate this sound.

Check out the Dizze Rascal or Wileys LP...that's probably
the best known Grimey releases...

It's an offshot of the UK garage sound..but kinda slowed
down and dirtied up...
