Download: Trim – Notice Now (Budeaux Bootleg)

Taking a dark, organic approach on east London grime MC ‘Trim’s’ track Notice Now, the vocal manipulation and generally soundscape atmospheres really out a different musically message to the original fast paced grime staple.

Kwam: Truth Hurts.

Kwam is an MC from Alien Muzik, a collective consisting of Rival, Marger, Rudekid and others. A collective who amongst others such as Family Tree and Butterz are breathing life into grime, each one bringing different things to the table like some kind of Grime Triforce.

Public transport

Wayne is back to tell you all about some more things about the world that fuck him off. Maybe if he was mayor rather than the man who thinks you rugby tackle people in football we’d have public transport that wasn’t fucking terrible.

Elijah and Skilliam/Butterz.

If anyone’s earned the tag of ‘Mad Skillz’ it’s grime aficionados Elijah and Skilliam, for having easily one of the best shows on Rinse FM, running aspiring grime label behemoth Butterz and banging out some of the essential mixes in the grimosphere, and this isn’t even arbitrary arselicking.
