what fuckin equation is that???

Posted: **3 May 2004, 11:30am**

well thats the equation of how young you can go.
you get your age divide it by 2 and then + 7.
for me it'a 16.5 so 15 is alittle too young

Posted: **3 May 2004, 11:32am**

funny!!!!!

so that means the olsen twins are too young for khem hahah sucked in

Posted: **3 May 2004, 11:37am**

theres an exception to every rule, especially when twins are involved

hype or stfu

should people really be up on that higher part near the dj booth?

Posted: **6 Jun 2004, 10:39pm**

Well thats the point.

I mean, his records were actually behind the console, right at the back so if it were these records then thats really out of line. Personally I dont think anyone should be dancing on that raised bit at all.

Yes I very much concur

Posted: **7 Jun 2004, 12:54am**

Im there to watch the DJ not some munted folks who think they own the place because they are a foot taller for the evening.

If I want to see munts I'll just look for Weez & Schmoo!

Posted: **7 Jun 2004, 7:46am**

Yeah no shit. That spot should be for MCs and MCs only.

Posted: **7 Jun 2004, 8:48am**

just had a chance to check the forum, i had a hell good time at traffic fri nite but i did especially enjoy hype... i like the comment that he didn't need an mc, i thought he carried it wikkid but i am only new to the scene... Razz everything sounds wikkid rite now..!

i'd love to have some recorded sets from traffic too, i have a minidisc player but i'm not sure it would record dnb very well.

big up to a fantastic fri nite, anyways. Razz

Posted: **7 Jun 2004, 10:42am**

Internationals sets arent really meant be recorded and widely distributed.

I also agree no slops on stage plZ!

Posted: **7 Jun 2004, 11:55am**

I thought john doe's set was sick and a great warm up for hype who layed down some wicked tunes but the skatches always sounded the same and i didnt think rage was that good but still a great nite

did it look like to anyone else that he looked a little bit lost up there in the first ten minutes??

there was no foldback for the first part.. once that was sorted he was all good.

ahhhh that may have had something to do with it.

Posted: **7 Jun 2004, 8:10pm**

hype-the man has some skills and very sweet to watch but got a lil bored near the end - maybe that was the beers that i drank early making me sleepy!!!
but u kno i gotta big it up for another kick arse adelaide set- this one goes to john doe - blake FUCK YEAH! that was an absolute stomper! that energy behind the decks could easily have boosted the hype set - it's so damn important to see the dj enjoyin' themselves!

Posted: **7 Jun 2004, 10:55pm**

Blakes set was awesome. He has been on fire lately... his set at Sureshock was awesome as was his set at hype. Spot on mixing with spot on tunes.. enough variety to keep everyone happy.

Hype... well there is no doubt about this.. the man is an awesome dj. His selection was spot on in terms of flow. I didnt dig the stye he prefers but some mixes i tip and take my hat off to.

The mix he did with the nine.. was fucking perfect. I couldnt tell which tune was coming or going.... his scratching was effortless. I know he only did the one sample scratch but he made it look so easy...

his intro i could have swarn was in the mix whilst he was scratching over it... awesome.

my only complaint was the tunage. It didnt do it for me but mayeb did it for a lot of people. I was there to see the man dj.. and have fun. SO basically what he played had no bearing on my night. Technically he is an awesome dj. I had fun.. got drunk on $2 beers (which is an awesome deal by the way blake).

Now.... the mcs.....

Mennan impressed me. You can tell the man has been working on his game.

Wether you like him or not... he did put on a good show. and shan also rocked the show. they were both loud, clear and technical with a hint of fun thrown in the mix. Nice show lads.

Rage mc was poor. For an international mc, he must be giggling at the fact he actually getts to tour. He was yelling which cut the sound on the main speakers, then when we tried to fix the problem he was quiet. He didnt say much whilst i was there. I think hype with a local would have been just as good.

I left after hype had played tomb raider. For me that was the perfect way to leave. A good technical dj set with average tunes and to leave on a tune i am really digging capped the night off.

Cheers to everone who talked shit/ messed aroudn with me on the night

I definately agree with you there.

He came on for my set and after certain comments on here during the week I payed special attention to him and I thought he was really fucking good. Good rhymes, a lot clearer than normal and he really has a great stage presence.

A definate gold star to you Mick!

Posted: **8 Jun 2004, 8:07pm**

hype doesnt really look very happy behind the decks does he

Posted: **8 Jun 2004, 10:20pm**

thats cos he was getting pissed at everyone dancing up there and people spilling drinks on his shit!

Posted: **9 Jun 2004, 10:46am**

yeah whats with that retard pouring water on the mc and decks
the set before john doe ( sorry dont know who it was )

maybe some of what was said got through to him?

either way, if he has lifted his game that makes me happy.. i hope he can continue his improvement

Hype was all I expected and more. Thought his scratching was a bit poo tho. I mean, it was wicked scratching but it was the one sound and the same scratch he has been doing for the last 10 years. A bit of variety would be nice.

hence my comment that I've seen you and fiction scratch better.

You guys scratch the intro or outro to tracks...

he sounded as if he had one effects record. Still dope though, just a little underwhelming

Rage was pants tho. Boring, fuck all stage presence plus he stole a

at least he knows when to shut up
*cough* mennan *cough*

Posted: **10 Jun 2004, 1:23pm**

Julian, when was the last time before hype that you have heard mennan?

Yes he talks a lot, but he has improved a lot more than you gave him credit for.

I'm not commenting on anything else, because I simply do not know if his rhymes or whatever have improved.

but in terms of his flow over the music, he hasn't improved since last time I saw him, which was in April sometime.

He never shut up last time I saw him, he never shut up this time...

He may have improved overall, but I've only seen him a few times in a few months, and if he has improved then cool, good for him, hopefully I'll be able to spot the improvement, maybe at inbound this week...

you had better be careful j, voiceing your opinions is flame-able offence if its not the same opinion as the 'cool' crowd

i'll back that. troy stepped up 2 which was a plesant suprise. was well impressed with his effort.

Posted: **11 Jun 2004, 2:53am**

I dont remember his set at all. FUCK!!

[/quote]

Im sorry maz, what do you mean by that.

Just cos I dont agree with his comment.... this is a public discussion, i hardly flamed him. Just tried pointing out the fact that just because funky j put it in writing he didnt like it he doesnt speak for the rest of us.

There is a thing such as constructive criticism which i did not notice in the article.

As far as criticism goes, you heard him back in april. You didnt pay any attention to what he says all you said was 'he never shut up'

Maybe he didnt but if you go out at all regularly you would notice that he hasnt been booked much. SO when he comes out for hype and impresses a lot of people and someone who has seen him twice in the past three months gives him shit I think something is wrong.

You have to see why i questioned, (not flamed) you about it?!

Maz... i said my thing Jules voiced his opinions back to me and thats fair enough.

I think Maz was referring to the crap that went on last week & perhaps Josh as well... since he seems to be on a flaming roll at the moment.

Personally... all of the comments I have heard in relation to the night have pretty much been along the lines of "it was nothing special" and these comments are coming from people that love their drum and bass and love the scene, and generally, have nothing to do with this forum.

I wasn't there... so I can't comment on who was shit and who was good.

Posted: **11 Jun 2004, 1:09pm**

I thought Hype was very decent personally.
