Was so pleased to see the place packed on a Sunday night. Now’s Chengdu’s time to stand up and take it’s crown as the 3rd city for sure.
Quote:xiong mao will reopen this summer in a smaller, more central location.Great news and quick work as well. Size sounds spot on as well.
Good luck with this event, I hope it goes well. I’m probably going to go and catch him at the Shelter here in Shanghai.
Cheers Charlie, that’s pretty simple. I think Kendrick’s already exceeded Saigon/Papoose, his star’s flying higher.
Here’s another excellent grime set from this year:
Beat selection is better on this one, MCing is hot too.
Downloaded the Bronson and just can’t get into it, I think for previously stated reasons.
Loving Kendrick Lamar – Good Kid, m.a.a.d city
Downloaded Miguel – Kaleidoscope Dream but not got round to it yet.
Not sure who knows about Grime here, but here is a heavy grime set from the Slew Dem crew:
No idea how to embed vids.
There’s a website called FluentU I just started using, it uses youtube clips to teach and has a variety of topics. Yuu do need a VPN though, but then I can’t understand why anyone woldn’t have one of those.
When I arrived I signed up for 6hours of classes a week at a Chinese school. That got me off to a good start.
Looks good, I look forward to checking out the details from Charlie’s blog post. Fixed gear’s are very popular here in Hangzhou, I’m sure at Natooke you’re aware of the shop called “Sunday” here? I picked up a fixed gear from them a while ago and then promptly fucked up my shins by awakening a dormant shin injury that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere by trying, I was on the way home from the shop and trying to skid (facepalm).
They are being sold out of every half decent looking bike store around here now and are as common as muck. Saw a guy with a nice classic and shiny green one yesterday that he bought off the internet, I think that’s pretty popular as well.
Quote:Get on board man. Ghostface is down with Bronson, they even have a colab or two together. I’m not a huge hip hop head, but Action Bronson is one MC I just can’t get enough of.I’m not necessarily not on board, I loved the tune with Riff Raff over that cloud rap beat. There he totally works, it’s just this tune sounds TOO much like a beat of a GF album and for me that’s getting too close to his idle. I don’t think biting is the right word, just taking the influence too far in this case. No doubt Bronson’s got his own voice.
If we’re doing the weirdo white rapper thing I’m all over in Rittz’s corner though:
EDIT ha that Ghost quote is gold. Nearly got a headache reading that shit. Reminds me of this:
That Action Bronson tune – It seems Ghostface died and was reincarnated as a morbidly obese whiteman.
I mean, it’s a level of bitery that I’m not completely comfortable with.

Thanks for the photos, looks like it was a fun party.
Charlie’s right – respect to Dave and Andy, they’ve been putting the hardwork into CD’s electronic music scene for years.
Easy Andy. I just had a look at those pics – it’s pretty unique that. Looks like it’s pretty close to some apartments there, hope that doesn’t cause any trouble.
Quote:I’m bringing my camera, I will take photos and post them here after the event.I look forward to checking the photos you and Andy shoot at the party. With those drinks deals it should get off to a good start.
