  1. Fabric nightclub is today facing closure after four drug-related deaths at the venue. Police have called for a review of its licence, saying that over the past three years, eight people have collapsed, four of whom died, at the Farringdon club after taking MDMA, ecstasy and other drugs. In the last incident in September, an 18-year-old girl fell ill and later died in hospital after buying MDMA inside the venue — twice voted the world’s best club. Islington council’s licensing committee is due to review Fabric’s licence tonight. In a police report submitted to the committee, Pc Steven Harrington said: “It attracts clientele from all over Europe and it would seem that the immaturity or lifestyle of these patrons leads to them becoming actively involved in the taking of illegal drugs and this could account for the disproportionate and wholly unacceptable number of deaths and near death incidents at the venue.” Stripping Fabric of its licence is being “seriously considered”, the police said. They are demanding the club increases security, including using sniffer dogs. Police said Fabric is one of the capital’s most troublesome clubs, with 12 drug possession or dealing offences for MDMA, ecstasy and Ketamine recorded between April and October this year. Tonight’s licence review has sparked floods of letters from members of the public, both for and against closure. One local resident described watching a group of men “out of their box on something more than alcohol” trying to climb fences. But another neighbour wrote: “Keep it open... this is the funkyness of the area we embraced.” Famous for house and techno nights, Fabric has been crowned best club in the world twice by DJ Magazine. A spokesman for Fabric declined to comment. http://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/worldfamous-fabric-nightclubfacing-closure-over-drug-deaths-9932384.html
  2. they should have showed you a 'vs' style video to highlight how good it is in comparison to others. cool vid though.
  3. skimmed over it until the point where she 'learned what people wanted' then gave up. this equals no interest in what she's doing apart from making money.
  4. Dust brothers have got some trip hop stuff to their name.. Daphreephunkateerz Plaid DJ Vadim Red Snapper
  5. Can't believe i forgot Nightmares on Wax.
  6. who would care about that though?
  7. Tricky's solo stuff bonobo Amon Tobin Flying Lotus XXYYXX - A bit more grimey at times but well worth checking out Kinobe Chris Coco - heading a bit more towards ambient but again worth checking out Afterlife That should get you going.

  13. that's what it looked like to me....
  14. Nu-jazztriphopwavestep i reckon
  15. GO beyond tutorial and just mess about with samples by loading effect units onto them to see what happens. If something good, excellent, if something rubbish just delete it and try something else. Experimenting with sounds keeps it interesting as you never really know what you'll end up with.

  21. SoundCloud operated at a loss of £18.1m in 2013. The music streaming platform is hugely popular among fans and artists, boasting some 175m users per month. But despite it being the go-to site for uploading tracks and mixes, an annual report from '13 showed SoundCloud creating an annual turnover of £8.8m compared to operational losses of double that. A statement from the company said: "We are in a phase of growing SoundCloud into the market-leading platform for listening to, creating and sharing sound. This has necessitated investment in technology, headcount and marketing. Our overhead base has increased faster than our revenues.” Though its turnover is up from 2012, so are its operational losses. This is probably because the company has had to keep up with its rapid user expansion. This news comes after SoundCloud announced plans for paid subscription and advertising with labels and large brands, something that should close the gap between turnover and losses in the future. With international offices from San Francisco to Berlin, founders Alex Ljung and Eric Wahlforss had wanted the website to imitate the success for audio to what YouTube did for video. Despite this accounted loss and continued negotiation, SoundCloud's listening figures are expected to reach up to 200 million per month in the near future. Source
