mary is the best source for this. she's a radio 1 dj in the uk and her show IS ON THE RADIO AND ACTUALLY GOOD. this just doesn't happen on mainstream radio in the uk anymore http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/maryannehobbs/

i mean watch the end of this clip after her set when she's talking http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmbVt...eature=related you simply don't get that type of enthusiasm from anyone else at the bbc or in most other places. she actually gives a shit about the music. fair enough i might not like all of it but thats not the point, the point is there is someone at the bbc who actually gives a shit about music and pushing it towards the experimental edges as much as she can get away with. this actually works because you want to listen to something that is new and challenges your expectations when you hear about it from someone who actually cares.

in most other respects the bbc is just a despicable war propagandist outlet that tries to force the population to pay for it and it should be shut down.

more please.

Dubstep out of Bristol thing that was part of the MAHobbs show. I find her massively irritating but she's been the only DJ who's been anywhere close to Peel in terms of her influence upon the scene. It's a massive shame she doesn't have the breadth of Peel but, in a time when Lamacq's sidelined and cuntface Lowe's ridiculously popular, she's our saving grace.

What the hell are you saying when you say Wonk? just curious of yr definition....

its just the name of a genre. when i said i needed a wonk it was a play on words. as in i need a wank.

the name wonky comes from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-JXfIV2Zpo a shitty old saturday morning show that us british people watched as kids. altho noone involved will ever admit it.

yeah its got a lot to do with ketamine aswell.

I'm not sure where dubstep ends and wonky begins (and I'm a lot more sober now than I was last night) but rinse.fm is a pretty indispensable resource for dubstep and grime without twatting about in Warp territory. Don't get me wrong, I like Warp, but I think they stopped having their finger on the pulse around the time of that first Grime LP they did.

Actually, I had a huge wonk over Cooly G, Joy Orbison, and The Bug doing great sets at a halloween party last night.

Darkstar - Need You
Joy Orbison - Wet Look
Ikonika - Please

I recommend picking up the new '5 years of hyperdub' compilation, there's plenty of nice tracks on there.

I love wonky. I had opened a thread for all things glitch hop but it fell into oblivion.
I saw Hudson Mohawke live last week opening for Clark and he was really really good. I can't really get into his album yet, though.
My favorite wonky artist is by far Dorian Concept. "When Planets Explode" really impresses me, it's so great.

Gemmy - Word Perfect
Joker & Rustie - Play Doe
TRG - Time Is Now

Bumping this thread for two reasons
First because I want to say in another thread how much I am enjoying Ikonika's album right now
Secondly because I want to thank Glice a lot for rinse.fm. Awesome website, for some reason I hadn't really checked it before. I'd rep you but apparently I've already repped you too much lately
