This past February, Tesfa Williams released his debut album—over 20 years into his career. Raves Of Future Past distilled decades of experience on London dance floors into a potent and powerful blend of grime, house, rave and techno. Made with an Elektron Digitakt to imitate the rough textures of early '00s UK dance music, the LP is an anachronistic history lesson that throws everything in a blender, imagining what gqom might sound like as an Eski track and giving new life to the short-lived "sublow" sound Williams helped invent with classic tracks like "Invasion," released under his earlier alias DJ Dread D.
Since the sublow days, however, Williams has become a torchbearer for UK house music and African diasporic sounds like Afro house and gqom in London. He's put out soulful hits like "Heartbeat"—recently reissued by Local Action—and released a steady stream of dance records for PMR and Strictly Rhythm. He's what you might call a jack of all trades, except for that he's actually a master of them all.
His RA Podcast charts his musical journey in reverse chronological order, starting with smooth, African-influenced sounds and winding through grime and dubstep, eventually landing at jungle. He threads a needle through diverse genres (and eras), and posits that the traditional UK hardcore continuum is a bigger spectrum than you might think, with gqom's heave and amapiano's log drum equally important in the musical equation. It's nearly two hours of UK dance music past and present, from a DJ who has lived it all.

"All in my life, I've gone back and forth between North and East London," Karen Nyame KG said in a recent mini-doc about her studio process. "These areas are multicultural [...] you just become a sponge for that type of energy." More than two decades into her career, these parts of the UK capital remain a defining influence on The Rhythm Goddess, whose music weaves together ideas from across London and the diaspora, blending R&B and soul with global dance music forms.
A leading face of London's hybrid club sound, KG's sound is seductive and luxurious. Her excellent productions, which span UK funky, amapiano and East Coast club, have a velvety touch, as if cut from high-end fabric. Her ear for smoky, sultry grooves, showcased on her Rhythm In The City party-turned-label, is impeccable, and her tracks have become more song-oriented, ranging from sultry to braggadocious. Her classy DJ mixes are a study in bounce and groove, incorporating everything from highlife to Afrotech to dubby rollers.
Since re-entering the club circuit in 2018 after a six-year hiatus, KG has become a role model for women talents in the electronic music world. Her stance on racial and gender disparities within the industry has helped orchestrate safer spaces in music, inspiring aspiring Black creatives in the process. KG's RA Podcast is nothing short of sexy, loaded with swung rhythms and lithe drums across gqom, Afrohouse and jazzy deep house. It radiates a level of confidence and intimacy that can only come from years of vision—and a constant passion for sensual, soulful music.

Julia Govor is one of those artists who can take the fundamentals of techno and make it sound hers. At this point in her career, the Georgia-born, New York City-based artist has established a style that feels half-Rome school, half Japanese hypnotic techno, but fully Julia Govor. Her label Jujuka has become a home for the stuff, featuring plenty of her own work along with like-minded folks like EMIT and Victoria Mussi, and she recently put out the biggest and best release of her career with the hefty Laika And Ulka Were Here on Semantica.
Her production style carries over to her DJing. Govor's RA Podcast is made up over half her own tracks, and the cuts she picks from others match her style: twirling arpeggios, rushing cascades of synth, heavy but groovy kicks. Much has been made of her childhood in a military family, and how she fell in love with techno via her classical musical education, where she felt drawn to the darker, romantic shades of composition. You get some of that here, but to call Govor's style "dark" would be overly simplistic. Instead it's sleek, aerodynamic and fluid, the kind of techno that gets you lost in a wormhole.

I work in the IT department at work, and last week someone called me saying they had a message in Outlook pop up saying "Your archive.pst has reached the maximum size for the format that it is saved in" or something similar. THE DUDE HAD A 2GB EMAIL ARCHIVE.Originally posted by FM100MB..s'a lot of emails...
Too much email! The sad thing is 2gb is the limit for Outlook 2000... Outlook 2003 has a much higher limit.

yeah just noticed 100mb. I like it, but SBC sucks! If you have DSL with them they give you file storage as well as a website, combined you get 500MB online storage with a standard DSL package. Good enough to store a few sets. Oh and yahoo got rid of the POP3 access when they merged with SBC. Somethin about the way their web browser works, but dont install it! or else...

I've been using Gmail for about 2 weeks now, and man does it have a slick interface. I'm definitely transitioning into making it my primary account for everyday e-mailing.

I'm using gmail, and I'm quite happy with it. Comes with some interesting ideas to organize email.
Privacy? well, I wouldn't use a free mail account for important/private stuff anyways. And as for yahoo and hotmail, if you read their privacy statements they also check your traffic for a "better experience" meaning you'll get ads and mails that suit you.
www.gmail-is-too-creepy.com ? That's just google-hate... one cookie? delete it! or don't use cookies... 180 days? well, hotmail keeps old mail for a year, it's the same thing, "How about words such as "box cutters" in the same email as "airline schedules"" ooooh... then pay for your mail account, buy a state-of-the-art encryption software and stop complaining... Why doesnt that site make a comparison with other major free webmails, yahoo and hotmail specially?. And yes gmail has ads, but they're text only, no banners or junk mail, so it's less annoying, and if you don't want them then quit being so cheap and pay for your own email...
To get gmail you have to be invited by someone with an account (you get to give 3 invitations).Leave a comment:

Originally posted by demonAfroI can get to yahoo with pop3, but that is a yahoo.co.uk...Originally posted by razvanIf only free yaho would provide POP3 access ...
And 2 megs has never been a problem as far as my hotmail is concerned, anything more just makes you lazy as far as keeping track of old emails.
really ? and you have a free account ?Leave a comment:
