Live Band performances in grime

[hyperfrank]

Has anyone witnessed any?

If so have you enjoyed them and how is the experience different from the usual 'rave' scene.

I haven't seen too many: I've seen J2K,Ghetto, Scorcher, Wretch, Bashy and one or two more that I can't pick out of my head at the moment.

Is there any surprise that a lot of these performances are taking out by a lot of the mcs who also touch on a more hiphopy edge?

I've heard BBK have done a couple live band shows but haven't yet to hear them.

I think it's all quite a good thing shows the music in a whole different light.

obviously its an orchestra not a band, but i thought this sounded sick

[Jay]

urban classical was alot, purple sounded sick over that

[hyperfrank]

Yeah see I remember that, heard the audio and seen the footage but sadly never went.

[General Savimbi]

It's not a very good concept.

Plus not all MC can cope with a live bad.

Just another extension 'creativity' that we don't need in the Grime scene.

I like freestyles over acoustic guitar.

acoustic guitar>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

[Breathe Beats]

yep yep

i seen kano last year, he had a full live band behind him, let me tell you the guitarist was a bad man for playing how he did.

At one point Kano left the stage while the lights when dark blue and the band jammed away playing signs in life for a few minutes. It was Big.

[Ari Gold]

yeah there was that live band doing shows with jme, skepta, frisco and stryder innit.

i had like a 15 min exert from one, it was heavy.

No real grime performances here in the US, at least none I know of, unfortunately.

I dunno, there's those Soul Champion crews, stumbled onto the website a while back. Don't know how active they are but there seems to be a few of them on it like.

That video of Double S with someone on the guitar and drums is sick, I know it's not a full live band, but I recon if it was it would be even better.

[The Elijah]

theres not enuff normal grime performances never mind live band.

a set of a mixture between da 2 would be sick doh. like a dj, and a band.

only a few artists that could handle that doh.

[Mister Lacey]

Me and Retrofreak bought this up ages ago too, I think it's a sick idea like you say it brings new light innit. I'd love to see live bands incorped into the recording process too. Using live instruments to make beats etc...
