RINSE FM.. why so much funky or house??

[SPLERT]

ive been listening to rinse fm for many yrs now and i remember sets like ladies hit squad, PAUG, otcrew and more fire plus many more. during the day you had good dj's playing good music i swear i cant even listen to it hardley any more with all this funky house its on everytime i tune in..
i thought rinse was the home of grime,garage and top dj's.
im just saying i'd like to see rinse bak to how it was when i could listen to it all day everyday not this swag i hear the music is so boring...

[The Don]

Because there's probably a bigger audience for it.

[The Elijah]

Things move on, do you want DJs to play music that doesnt exist?

[No One Likes Frank]

By the end of the year funky will be "out" again so don't worry. With every new skank, funky dies a bit more.

Thats like saying Grime dies anytime someone makes a shit tune. Remember the people doing them things are nobodies, and they dont really go further then facebook and youtube.

this. or they'll start making better music

catch it bin it kill it!

[Danny Trejo]

Funky is a lot more than those skanks

[Mazer Rackham]

also, because it easier to fill 2 hours with samey funky instros than grime.

[No One Likes Frank]

Funky is a lot more than those skanks

Yeah but for the people who don't know about Rinse etc all they have is Youtube and AKA/Fizz. So they ain't gonna care for it. But then it could be argued that the people watching them channels are idiots anyway...

[Valhalla]

some funky tunes can be good but ye it gets borin and annoyin

[Randy]

its more radio friendly

[Randy]

and because geeneus likes it and its his station

[Tony Starks]

(Real) funky>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

why do i always get the feeling Geeneus was one of those "you cant play cos i dont want you to and its my ball!" kinda kids

Funky is garage 2.1 anyway

i like the funky that has that garage or grimey feel to it. like that SIA little man remix. but some of it does sound the same or a bit amateur.

and it beats bassline (resists putting down the north)

[Kaychi]

cuz its the in thing.

[RIP Jakey]

funky has to be experienced in a rave, i thought it was shit till i heard it in a rave

[SPLERT]

im just saying id like to hear rinse bak to how it was not the same boring sets playing funky i swear sunday is the only day i hear grime

[Randy]

has anyone heard that 'this is uk funky' cd? is it worth buying

[jimitheexploder]

House is safe and loads of people like it so the audiance is there for it. For me funky is kind of slowing down already its a shame. Nothing as good as the Lil Silva, Roska and Hard House Banton's bits from last year has appeared and some of the only good bits being made are by the dubstep people like Geiom, Kode 9 and Greviouse Angel... I want some of that good shit again!

['nuum general]

has anyone heard that 'this is uk funky' cd? is it worth buying

The Crazy Cousins one?

Its out tomorrow, i've pre-ordered it

[Stephan El Shaarawy]

Funky is alot

[s...]

funky has to be experienced in a rave, i thought it was shit till i heard it in a rave

.

But its good to have it in a rave with a mix of genres, duno if id get bored in a night just with funky dj's?

[110]

it makes the station more lively imo, i wouldnt mind a little less house but i aint complaining, rinse is stocking up on grime djs aswell, if im not mistaken score5 has joined the team

[Grimes]

face it, its time to move over grime.

[The Messiah]

this. or they'll start making better music

catch it bin it kill it!

Am I the only one who thought that the swine flu skank was actually kinda catchy?

[Tottybrer]

Am I the only one who thought that the swine flu skank was actually kinda catchy?

no...then again im not a funky fan

[Blimey]

Wasnt really into funky too much b4, but hearing it in the clubs it feels right and is helping keep everything under the Garage umbrella in the clubs at the mo which is important, having all these branches of UKG is a positive thing, they cant stop them all.

On a side note, what is the 'X factor' so to speak that unites all these sounds, i cant really bubble in a club to normal clubby stuff, but when old skool garage, funky or bassline comes on just instant bubbly vibes for aslong as its on, when it stops i kinda switch off again.

[swiiing]

garage = dead (unless u play old school)
grime = no one wants to hear that all day, and they still have shows covering grime
dubstep = same as grime
bassline = im sure they have a few shows of it
funky = they have quite a few shows playing this
house = this is the main thing they play, most of it is boring, shit, etc but sometimes u get some alright stuff
but yeah, rinse annoys me a lot now too, too much safe boring house.
i like some of the techier techno type house i hear tho

[Andre]

d malice, apple, grievious angel, ghostman, hardhouse banton and kode9's funky >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

i like listening to darker funky

but most funky is only good at a party when your drunk

[swiiing]

apple>>>>>

Just went on a mission to watch the vid, definatly catchy, Ears' camp is actually doing something lol, shame he couldnt drop a verse on it too.

[nortside]

funky has got the same vibe ol skool garage had, the last couple years raving became shit but now it's a nice again due to funky, and it's been big for a lot longer then some people think just that these skank tunes have brought it more to the mainstream,

don't get it twisted most funk heads hate the swag skank tunes don't believe the hype

[Mazer Rackham]

if funky is only good in a rave, then it wont get that big. saying that, even though im not a fan i reckon it sounds ok outside of raves

[nortside]

course it's big outside of raves, put it this way nuff man who only had grime thumpin' out their whips back in the day when it was hype are more time pumping funky these days

[fuk off]

it makes the station more lively imo, i wouldnt mind a little less house but i aint complaining, rinse is stocking up on grime djs aswell, if im not mistaken score5 has joined the team

Big! Never knew about this if this is confirmed Score 5 deserves to be on rinse has been puttin the work in from day (n/b)

[fuk off]

its alot will be locked in

[Grimes]

Non-offensive club music that brings males and females together = gold

[slu-wasteguy]

score 5 on rinse sicccck!

[Trapstar]

cos funky/house is doing it right now grime is just a small scene hardly anyone listens to it

[MoneyMan]

what is dubstep/funky/bassline/electro? Grime is the newest proper genre still. Pisses me off how 10 guys do the same beat & dance & put it on youtube & evry1 says its a new style or genre of music. A genre takes at least 10 years 2 create properly.

[Jay05]

Funky is on alot during the day

but there is at least 1 big dubstep or grime show every night except Friday and Saturday, when you can be out at a rave.

[Danny Trejo]
