Is UK Garage dying

[missc]

you can answer this question in one sentence... ukg aint dying it's evolving.

i personally like as much garage today as i did back in the day although arguably there is more fraff on the shelves. point is if it's $$$$ people dont buy it. if u think something is $$$$ and everyone else loves it start djing trance or move to siberia. u obviously have grown too old for ukg.

garage is diversifying, not dying.

and this has to be one of the most rinsed topics in the history of UK garage music.

Au Naturel: mate its not a question of living in the past.

you seem like a guy with a bit of sense. what would you rather go to? a garage night full of blokes wearing tracksuits, caps and an angry expression or a classy affair where there are lots of beautiful dressed up women and everyone is there to dance, mingle, have a laugh and chat someone up.

Recently I've been to both, and the second of the two is my choice.....................ANY DAY OF THE WEEK!!!

You kno it's all about the second one with me Para

I'm gonna be doing a nite hopefully either in November this yr or End Of Jan 03' that is just gonna be all about what you, Jolie and Pru have been saying on ere - where it's just about the good vibes and no armsing .

And see didn't i tell you that someone was gonna say that were living in the past (Luv you really Chantelle )

To me the way it's evolving aint all that - i'd say you have to have the ruff with the smooth tho and this @ the mo is the ruff unfortunatley .

Please no more topics on this please guys as it has been rinsed propa and it just the same answers given all the tyme - it's boring now !! .

I loved UKG whenit was in it's infancy and I remember Jungle/DnB going the same way in the past.

Too many wannabees are making crap toons. I personally dislike the majority of MC related Toons and even dark BLine beats.

UKG used to have a soul. We need someone to bring back the vocal element.

If you're considering venturing down the road of making a UKG record then take your time and do it right, for at the moment a good toon will fly.
