[BZARR1]

..|.. -..- ..|..

[MillionsofBees]

Its a shame whats happened to the UK scene. Nothing like this is still made, its all channel U grime dickheads now

[sense730]

check out 'old bill sykes' there is still hope just type it into the search bar..

[ilabstudios]

Not necessarily, it's just underground more than ever instead of becoming a well known scene like say Grime is..

[ilabstudios]

* Even Grime is becoming shit. Too many producers making their beats into pop/house music.

[DJRazor90]

grime was always shit, so no worries there.

[dunyabredda]

@MillionsofBees dude u need 2 luk harder...stig's droppin mood swings ep shortly...aswell as nu stuff by kyza n that ....luk harder..

[JakyRedEyes]

@MillionsofBees Not really, theres still bare mc too vinyl with n old skl flow.

[skitzey]

wht u chattin about this choone aint no banger its a fuckin beeeast :P

[pugfugly816]

Being 18 now, all this stuff kinda passed me by, was too young.

Discovering YNR stuff now, its awesome. Anyone reading this recommend similar strong tunes?

[bevrino]

this is old jehst, from his first release "premonitions ep" on ynr.

eye level

liquid diction

deadly combination

silver lining

life imitating art

independant

fist of the north star

india

[pugfugly816]

sweet, thanks mate.

[thelaw1984]

The lyrics in this are too much, beautiful imagery is conjured up.

Also Lexis is wicked also, never really heard of him since. I think he did a few bits on YNR but that was it.

He keeps up with Jehst on this.

[wastelanddrifter]

Lexis released 'Body Amour' with long time producer/friend Adee under the name eighteen18.

Lexis and Adee were previously known as Fools I View and were at the very birth of Y'n'R - their 2nd demo 'The Doldrums EP' featured a 14/15 yr old Jehst - Jester at the time - on an outstanding track called 'Deviance' (parts of which can be heard on the 'intro' preceding 'Boogaloo bugged out' on 'Body Armour')

[wastelanddrifter]

The cover for that demo had the Y'n'R logo on it... That was in 95 (or 94) (it's a long time ago, I forget.) It was also reviewed in HHC by Dave the Ruf...

eighteen18 seem to be AWOL at the moment, hopefully they'll reappear...

[mountjarvis]

can you hook me up with where i can buy theese tunes?? or atleast listen? thanks man any help would be greatly appreicated

[buzzmonkeymyspace]
