They trolled him to death in UK and the style of music he was making(which I forgot the name) fell off.

Garej. (UK garage...love that shyt). Why is it pronounced like that over there? LOL. We calll it Garage House in the states.

Garage is still alive...it just morphed into that post-Burial future garage stuff that's kind of gotten predictable.

UK music appreciation thread.







What y'all know about Lighthouse Family?

Now... can somebody explain to me what the fukk is "Garage"? I thought he was just an R&B singer:leostare:

And what the fukk is "Grime"? Isn't it the same thing as rap? :leostare:

Grime is usually 140 bpm, and is basically a mix of MC'n and a shyt load of music styles that were popular in the UK. Like drum n base, UK garage, jungle.

Old school grime.


Some grime beats

Not house.

But he was a Garage/Rnb singer, couple of his tracks on his album are what we would describe as Garage.

And this was the song which got him his breakthrough.



For the people who didn't rave in London when this song came out, you literally have nooooo idea how BIG this tune was and still is. Probably my generation's biggest garage/club tune
