Grime mix

Here's a really good mix by a DJ called Dowee. Listen to this, because
in about ten years time when you are all listening to
Venetian Snares' "grimecore" album, you can say you were
into it all along.

or grime with allot of vocals?

There should be a tracklisting as a txt file in the folder.

It's like slowed down Reece style drum n bass played on a
cheap keyboard with all the fakest settings. And it is ACE.

What is the difference between grime and dubstep??

Points: 5499 Status: Lurker



I would have said that grime had vocals. I'm downloading it
now, and havent listened to this yet, but also i think that
dubsteb is always a slow super bassy grinding beat, while
grime can be quite uptempo also (but also be slow and
grinding)


 

offline DirtyPriest from Copenhagen (Denmark) on 2006-10-20 06:39 [#01989800]

I would call this mix dubsteb, it's awesome nonetheless

into after (see above)

As from an MC, grime generally has a more "cluttered" sound,
lots of fast hitting claps and closed hi hats. There's less
of a fixation with really low frequencies (although bass is
still prominent) and the synths tend to be a bit cheesier.

In mood sounds generally tense and aggressive, whereas
dubstep is more a sort of aprehension and building fear.

Dubstep > Grime, IMO.

The other way around for me, but i like both

Then we agree, this mix sounds like more dubsteppish than
grimish.

I haven't listened to all of it yet, but based on the
tracklisting and the first 10 minutes I'd say, yes, it's
more dubstep than grime.

I'm no expert, but i favour Ceri's explanation here. Grime
to me is the grittier stuff, at times it seems almost hip
hop (hence the tendency for emcee'ing).

I like dubstep better, but only coz i've pigeonholed it in
my own mind as the more lush version of grime (ie. burial)
with less presets going on, lesser appeal for rappers and
more instrumentalist

this mix is grime to me

Agreed (i admit that putting things into genres is just my
brain imagining how things 'should' sound within my own
frame of reference)

it is just good music , danceable too

There's a general feeling in the Dubstep community that
Rephlex's "Grime 2" is actually all Dubstep.

DP: I reckon Raptor's "Hustlin' " is grime, rather than
dubstep.

Personally (and I know most people would disagree with
this), I think part of the reason Scream's stuff is so
popular with Grime Mcs is that in terms of composition and
sound, it's about halfway between dubstep and grime.

there is some scummy substance in my bathroom sink at the

But the line between like "instrumental grime" and "dubstep"
is so so thin, it's pathetic.

It's only on this board you could have a discussion like
this, and thats what i love about it. In most peoples ears
it would simply be "hiphop" or whatever.

too true

damn...that is an awesome beat u linked! don't spose u know
the name of it perchance?

No i don't :(

I really love it as well. The track Bruza is playing doesnt
use that beat originally, but it kicks as with this beat.
Thats a thing thats a bit annoying with grime, a beat is
created and theres 10 different versions of it, and
everyobdy uses the fresh beats live. I guess it also keeps
the community alive and all that, but grime tends to be
filthyer and grimier live, than on the albums, because most
of the mc's want to break through and don't want to sound to
harsh on their debuts (Kano is a good example, awesome live,
boring album)

It's virgo - down, the original i think but there's tons of
different versions doing the rounds.

Decent mix, this. Just wish it was better quality, 64k is a
joke.
