[shotglass75]

My DJ friend can not stop talking about these guys. I guess they were at Glasto last year but I missed them.

[Grant]

This is gonna be an awesome set. Can't wait.

[instinct]

I was hoping so too.

Based on your avatar I will listen to your recommendation regarding Plump DJs cuz I am a fan of uberzone (and leftfield)

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Jered says these guys are fucking AWESOME.

[Mordecai]

They will kill it. No question. Will not miss this set for anything.

Fixed, they are WAY better than uberzone.

[HEADSTRUCK]

[Newro7ic]

Happy days are here again.

[Dale Gribble]

Just downloaded fabriclive. Great stuff.

[bartelby]

methinks i'll be putting down roots in the Sahara this year

[All Your Base]

For Fuck Sake! Elektronauts (Plump Remix) is about the sickest thing I've heard in a week.

[weezy f baby]

my balls are the duo waiting on visas

[Sonicifyouwantit]

way better then uberzone.........

if I'm remembering correctly I wasn't too into uberzone. something about his playing the congas throughout his set...just didn't work for me.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

JERED CAN'T WAIT FOR THE PLUMP DJ'S

[weeklymix]

stoked.

[justinwilson1987]

[BlueDevil50]

calmer hit the nail on the head...listening to their new cd, all i hear is nastiness. ewwwwwwwww too funky.

and cdubby, love that ^^^ lol

[miraj]

plumps are probably one of the best acts on the lineup this year :-)

[djandrews25]

Best Djs by far, but The Orb will be the best sahara act.

[Leeartlee]

am I blind or is there no Plump DJ's on the lineup yet? Or is it that they are "bound" to be billed?

[Newro7ic]

You are blind. Sunday. Line 5.

EDIT: Line 6. I can't count.

[Leeartlee]

Fuck, right. Well I guess it's the result of starring at this fucking computer scene for the last few months.

[tcpace]

for sure man, I know what your talking about. He is a total cheese ball. When it comes to breakbeats he is not high on the list that the plump djs are on the top of.

one of my fav tracks at the moment

[kingsblend420]

I've been listening some live mixes. They are gonna rock it hard on Sunday. They've been elevated to "must see status".

[djandrews25]

Will be the best dj set of coachella for sure.

[HEADSTRUCK]

for sure...... djandrews25 do you listen to Far Too Loud? if not check them out. they are my fav breaks producers at the moment

classic filth

[daftsquirrel]

I am definitely excited for plump djs!

and I'm not that excited for the Orb...I watched a couple of live videos and it doesnt look that amazing

[HEADSTRUCK]

I am not into the orb either.

[djandrews25]

I am not into the orb either.

Have i introduced you to my good friend Lucy?

[HEADSTRUCK]

lol, YOU havent so feel free to do so and I will give it a try.....haha

[djandrews25]

If i have extra, id be glad to.

[Bud Luster]

Really, Orb aren't an incredibly "exciting" act. Really spacey down-tempo, but fantastic though. They arent going to tear the place a new one like Plump DJs will, but should still be quality shit.

[HEADSTRUCK]

see thats why I am not really into them......they are better suited to play like a 5 or 6 am slot. I dont like downtempo during peak hours but thats just me.

[HEADSTRUCK]

If i have extra, id be glad to.

Werd, I plan on being high in the sky with Lucy all day Sunday if everything works the way its planned.

[djandrews25]

If everything works as planned, your gonna love the orb. Everyone ive ever talked to that has seen them live rates their performance up there with any live electronic act.

[HEADSTRUCK]

As long as they (the orb) dont conflict with the YYYs I will check them out.

[brando4n82]

So I just got done listening to Headthrash and it totally pumped me up to see these guys.

I love all their beats on the new album but I only like about %50 of the vocals. The track "Shifting Gears" would be so awesome if it was just an instrumental track.

[GeezrRckr]

"Scram" off A Plump Night Out is fucking great. I'm really psyched these guys were added! Could be at/near the top of my list of sets I'm most looking forward to.

[Fiarmedico]

Plump DJs are so good. Im so glad they were added. Yay

[Dogvolta]

I owe much to these boards for revealing these guys to me. I haven't been this excited about seeing a set at coach (that I recently came upon) as much as these guys. HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD OF THEM BEFORE. I've been freaking out over plump djs for the past month or so since they got added.

[DJ Pop-A-Smurf]

plump djs yes yes yes yes yes yes

agreed.

[unknown]

Nice addition! I am very excited for Plump DJs as well!! I listened to the Fabriclive set today and loved it. Tomorrow I will be trying out my other downloads of theirs: Plump DJs at Winter Festival and Plump DJs Session 50.

Hasn't it only been around a week since they were announced?

[Dogvolta]

Hasn't it only been around a week since they were announced?

Meh, maybe 2-3 weeks since HeadStruck made a post about them. I think. Either way, binging on them since.

[misterpickles]

haha cdubby im listening to system addict right now and its syncing perfectly with your row of lil' dancing men.. beautiful

[hellscrape]

i didn't bother checking these guys out for a while... something abuot the name turned me off...

one trip to youtube later...

this shit is gonna murder! I'll definitely be grooving to this.

[cooperb1]

hel yes this i,m so happy about plump dj,s

[ozmusic]

they are nothing special! just another 2 dudes on decks mixing it.....

[Dogvolta]

Plump DJs...just a band

[givinguptheghost]

just another 2 DJs huh? just a little trivia about the plumps:

andy and lee had to take themselves out of the running for best producers of the year at breakspoll for several years because they kept winning by a landslide. after resuming eligibility, they simply kept winning. the plump DJs are legendary.

in fact, they have never played in the US because of visa issues - coachella will be one of their first US performances. they sell out the largest venues for dance music all around the world and will be making their first US stop at the un-offical home of breaks in the USA - san francisco.

the plump djs will rape your ears at coachella - unequivocally - this will be the best dance act of the festival. prepare yourselves.

[hellscrape]

i've been eating these cats up for the last few days, since i opted to check em out online. SWEET!

[HEADSTRUCK]

San Fran date???? please do tell so I can go!!

[James]

April 17 at Mighty. Not really much of a chance of catching that one, eh?

[HEADSTRUCK]

nope......damn!!! I hope they do a US tour this summer now they can.

[AbundantChoice]

April 17 at Mighty. Not really much of a chance of catching that one, eh?

Mighty is a hella fun venue too. I used to live about 4 blocks from there before moving to Boston!

[Leeartlee]

Plump DJ's are going to rock your socks off. I'm extremely upset I won't be there on Sunday to see them :(

[betao]

I am terrified of conflicts on Sunday. But I'm not going to miss these guys. The Plumps are going to be a show to remember.

Really want to see these guys, when do you guys think they'll be rocking the decks? Sunday is already so stacked it's going to be tough to catch full sets...sacrfices may have to be made. Hopefully they play a little on the early side...I know there are going to be several acts I want to see during MBV, who as of now is still my top priority...I think.

3 weeks holy shit!!

[givinguptheghost]

yes it's true. :)

www.seismicsf.org has the san francisco flyer up...

some favorite tracks of mine: scram, squeeks & bleeps, the rub-off, blackjack, listen to the baddest, system addict, electric disco...

albums to get now: a plump night out, eargasm, saturday night lotion, headthrash

and one last thing, folks (not that it needs to be said): but THIS is the motherfucking breaks.

[Distorted_Jungle]

Have i introduced you to my good friend Lucy?


Lucy and the orb seem like they would go GREAT together, but since they most likely won't be in the Sahara a conflict will probably happen and i wont see them.

[djandrews25]

I doubt they will put the orb anywhere else, but i suppose it is possible given how stacked the sahara is sunday.

[Distorted_Jungle]

it all depends on the amount of time everyone gets in the Sahara so far in the Sahara on Sunday i have:

Roni Size Reprazent
Groove Armada
Etienne de Crecy
Christopher Lawrence
M.A.N.D.Y.
Plump DJ's
Busy P
Supermayer

Possible Sahara:
Late of the Pier
The Orb
Perry Farrell
Shepard Fairey


so we shall see who ends up where

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Electric Disco is going to make everyone S in their P's.

I am most excited about this set than anything else^1217

[djandrews25]

I hope they get a good timeslot.

[unknown]

I am so up in the party for their set.

[CalmerThanYou]

id see them headlining the sahara or in the slot just before the headliner.

seriously, no one knows what kind of damage these guys are going to do to their nuts.

[HEADSTRUCK]

thats what they should get.......but its the US and the US doesnt know shit about EDM

[CalmerThanYou]

doesnt matter what the US knows, paul booked em, paul does the set times, paul will allow them to FUCK everyone in the neck at a great set time.

[HEADSTRUCK]

I hope they play right before the cube.....10pm would be perfect

[HEADSTRUCK]

I hope your right calmer but i have doubts.....

I wouldnt be shocked if he put them at 4pm


as long as its not during the YYYs I am good

[CalmerThanYou]

16000000000% they are NOT playing a 4pm set.

Paul didnt have them get their visas for them to play in the US for the first time for an afternoon set.

lasers will be ripping, faces will be dripping, and ill be tripping.

i dont even know what that means. i know you arent calling Plump BS, so i would assume you are saying that the other BS dance acts would somehow take precedence over them?

not sold marky, i would think out of anyone you would know they are getting a sick set time since paul knows whats up.

Plump djs are my fav edm act ever so I think they should headline the whole fucking fest.......

I am saying Paul books all kinds of shitty acts over the years so I dont trust his judgement.....

He finally gets a great act doesnt mean he has got smarter

[CalmerThanYou]

i really like you, but perhaps you should get your mouth slapped.

dude CREATED this thing we all love with all of our hearts.

sure, he books shitty acts to you and i, but some people like them, and not everyone can be perfect ALL the time.

now stop with this negativity and JUICE

your right, he books "big" names and I understand that. Plump djs are the biggest name in breakbeats but thats overseas not here.....

so they are not the "big" name that the little rave kids know....

you get what I am putting out there?

[HEADSTRUCK]

I know why he books what he does and I respect that but trendy big djs that all these rave kids (that have been raving for 2-3 years) like shouldnt even be playing in the same tent as the plump ones

[CalmerThanYou]

I get it, but he will want to school them on hard knocks of sicky break beats and nut shattering drops.

UCPAULT: SCHOOLS IN FUCKING SESSION

[HEADSTRUCK]

I 100% hope your right....

I have been waiting to see them for a long time and have even tried booking them twice so they will be the highlight of my weekend, maybe even life.

Cry. Then go see most of MBV and sprint over to Sahara to catch end of Plump. Or other way around. Those two and the Orb are my biggest Sunday draws, and I am almost positive there will be some horrible overlap. If you run fast enough you can go from the main stage to the Sahara in about 3 minutes though. This will likely be necessary on Sunday.

I'm in the same position. I'm just waiting for MBV to conflict with one of them. And when it happens, I will be a sad panda.

[Dogvolta]

As much as I love MBV and Orb....I think I'd have to choose the Plumps over those two if there is a conflict. I might be able to argue that I like MBV and/or Orb more than Plump DJs, but the amount of fun/dancing/ball busting/soul fucking/face melting/DANCING going on during Plump Djs would just be too much fun to miss.

[betao]

Well i'm assuming that the Plumps and the Orb wont conflict. In the event that it happened, I'd pick The Orb, but I would hate having to make that decision.

[jackstraw94086]

considering I hadn't heard of them before this board, probably not

nice.


Actually as far as breakbeat goes they absolutely are the most influential act in the world.

Them and Krafty Kuts have probably done most to shape the sound over the last decade.

Of course the genre is splintered as fuck these days so if you one wanted to nitpick then they could probably name thousands more influential in one particular offshoot.



I'll probably catch them in SF next weekend so I'll report back on what they're first US show in forever sounds like. If the old myth about producing talent vs DJ talent holds still holds true I'm not expecting much.

[HEADSTRUCK]

very true Jackstraw, I would also put the autobotz in there as well. Krafty Kuts has gotten really cheesy over the past few years but I checked him out at edc was walked away feeling ok with what I saw.

[jackstraw94086]

I saw the Finger Lickin 10 year anniversary show here in SF a couple weeks ago and Krafty killed it.

[Trick Loves The Kids]

none, i don't know anything about the genre but i am hella stoked to see these dudes

and i was just commenting on "one of the most influential acts ever" that's all

Adam Freeland doesn't spin Breaks very much, he throws a few tracks in every once in a while but majority Electro House or at least last time i saw him and from his essential mix and all his other sets i have thats how it sounds to me.

[jackstraw94086]

yeah adam freeleand hasn't made breaks in about 4 years.

The only reason his name still comes up is his legacy, and the fact that some folks on Marine Parade still make breaks.

SF's the only real breaks scene in the US, but LA does have the odd show here and there.

Far Too Loud

Screwface
Autobots

so if you ever see those names in SF please let me know.

Milwaukee: Had an emerging breaks scene but with the cities nite life being weak didnt last long. I threw mostly drum and bass/breaks show with dnb headliners cause after I had Deep Impact out and realized nobody knew who he was it wasnt worth my money being wasted. There is still a crew in milwaukee "Better Breakbeat Bureau"www.myspace.com/betterbreakbeatbureau
witch I am still part of pushes hard but struggles. They have had acts such as General Midi, Auotbotz, Slyde, Fixx and so on out but its really tough to get kids out.

Chicago: Is kinda the same as milwaukee but is a bigger city so they have had more luck. With Keith Mac moving there a few years ago they have seen a rise in big name breaks acts play Chicago. They tend to puch more of the Electro Breaks sound though....

Fl: The Fl breaks scene is still rather large but not for me. I am not a fan of US breaks, to me they are simple and non climatic. I prefer that hard gritty but yet still funky sound of nu skool breaks.

Why cant I live overseas???

[Fourthisto]

Plump Djs .... need lovin' too!!

Phew, hopefully by finally saying that I won't be thinking it to myself every time I see this thread title. That was getting out of hand!

Yeah my brother lives in florida and makes it out to orlando for good breaks acts every once in a while, like uberzone vs bassbin twins and meet katie stuff of that nature but still nothing like over seas. I feel the same way about Jungle simply because we get top talent but not a variety in so cal, its just always the same people spinning the same partys. I would love to live in london, the only downside would be the expense to go to Coachella every year but Glastonbury would be a lot closer.

[HEADSTRUCK]

I am hoping that after the coachella goers see what the plump djs bring to the table we will see some more top tier breaks acts next year. I really think the sound will go over well, its just the lack of exposure that so cal gets to the sound I love.

[Distorted_Jungle]

Yeah Breaks are sick, MSTRKRFT's stuff was even more Breaks style when they first came out. Not the one that just passed but the Ultra the year before they had a sick Breaks line up, and even EDC colorado last year had Uberzone Live.

Edit: With MSTRKRFT i was talking about the CD they released called "The Looks"

[Young blood]

In Colorado we celebrate and love the breakbeat, glitch, D&B, and dubstep. I just hope Plump dj's can make it out this way.

[HEADSTRUCK]

during wmc they always have "the future sound of breaks" party and its just pure maddness. I will look for a flyer for it. Uberzone is ok live but he gets a little cheesy hitting those electronic drums sometimes..... I would love to see him at coachella next year

[HEADSTRUCK]

now thats what I am talking about

Isn't Uberzone a Duo? and this year at the WMC they combined The Future Sound of Breaks and the ViRam(Virus and Ram Records) Party together and made a sick ass party

[HEADSTRUCK]

Isn't Uberzone a Duo? and this year at the WMC they combined The Future Sound of Breaks and the ViRam(Virus and Ram Records) Party together and made a sick ass party

just one guy....Tim Wiles I believe is his name

[HEADSTRUCK]

Isn't Uberzone a Duo? and this year at the WMC they combined The Future Sound of Breaks and the ViRam(Virus and Ram Records) Party together and made a sick ass party

that would be sick....I just went to a ram party here in LA a few months ago

[HEADSTRUCK]

that undercard is just sick

splitloop, hyper, fartooloud, utah saints and fucking deekline and whizard!!! fuck man, the west coast needs to realize what the world has to offer.

[Distorted_Jungle]

Oh yeah and from right here in so cal Anaheim, Ultra 2008 had The Freestylers, Krafty Cuts, Uberzone Live and some other dope shit i just can't find the line up right now. I would love to see a lot more Breaks hit so cal especially because Uberzone is from so cal.

[HEADSTRUCK]

hes from socal? I didnt know that. Yeah I live in riverside so I dont have much going on but if LA could just hit up a few of those names on that flyer above I would cry.

What is the DnB you are into? I grew up with the guys from Gein so I am exposed to the really hard dark uk sound....Dylan, Tech Itch yadda yada......

[Distorted_Jungle]

Dylan and Tech Itch are dope but i can only take so much, it's not something i can listen to day in and day out mainly i listen to a lot of Jump Up Jungle like Andy C, Hype, Qemists, TC shit like that but then i love some oldschool jungle like Aphrodite and Old Grooverider sets from circa '99. Some tropical brazilian jungle is good to listen to like SUV & Patife put out a sick album a while ago called Drum & Bass Fiesta that i listen to often. I love like every kind of DnB pretty much depending on the mood.

[HEADSTRUCK]

For sure man, after living in Milwaukee and attending all the shows Gein did I am def burnt out on that hard evil almost breakcore DNB. It was nice having them around cause we got some big names to come out since they were all on the same labels but after seeing the same names 100 times it got stale. Dylan even did a Therapy Sessions in Milwaukee...haha

[Distorted_Jungle]

Since you live in riverside you ever make it out to LA on Thursday nights for Respect? they are the longest running DnB weekly in LA maybe even the country it's been runnin strong for 10yrs now. Right now they are on hiatus trying to find a new spot they got the boot from the last spot for a conflict of interest or some bull shit, but when it's back up you should go sometime. www.respectdrumandbass.com good vibes they are the only people out here that bring variety, because all these big raves that bassrush pics the jungle for always have the same shit going on

[Distorted_Jungle]

[HEADSTRUCK]

i'm not camping but i will have a camping pass for the late night dome sessions, so for the hour downtime we should chill for sure or even durring the fest for a blunt session or something. i'm gonna be burning a blunt solo for The Bug if you want to burn, just PM me.

[jackstraw94086]

just one guy....Tim Wiles I believe is his name

He prefers to be called Q.

He's an incredibly nice guy but he's gone a bit fucking crazy with some new shit he's making (not only is it not breaks but it's horrible).

[Monklish]

you camping? if so we shpould def chill and discuss tunes and what not. I like seeing people on this board know more about edm then just this electro house fad....

That guy's a fucking idiot, Mark.

[Monklish]

http://djendo.com/FSOB_6.jpg

What the fuck? I have a boot of Freestylers at FSOB. How can it be their first performance there?

Also, Freestylers fucking own.

Hey I wouldn't mind meeting you either. You definitely seem to know what's up in the D&B scene. I'll swing by with Headstruck.

[Distorted_Jungle]

That guy's a fucking idiot, Mark.


If you are talking about me i would love to know why i'm an idiot

For sure man PM me we will set up a meeting spot or some shit

[HEADSTRUCK]

He's an incredibly nice guy but he's gone a bit fucking crazy with some new shit he's making (not only is it not breaks but it's horrible).

thats why i dont care for him much anymore

[HEADSTRUCK]

That guy's a fucking idiot, Mark.

He knows more about edm then 99% of this board so i give him enough points for a meet up.....he knows breaks and besides me and jackstraw i cant say that about ANYBODY

[Young blood]

You dont step out of your internet bubble very often.

[jackstraw94086]

I would kill to catch;
Far Too Loud
Renie Pilgrem
Screwface
Autobots

so if you ever see those names in SF please let me know.

I'd love to see Rennie too. I could pass on screwface and autobots. I'm kind of over that tearout kind of stuff. I kind of balked at Elite Force /Meat Katie/ Lee Coombs techfunk movement but it's really grown on me.

NAPT may be coming soon for their first US show.

[Monklish]

i love the tearout but seeing any of those you mentioned would be amazing

NAPT!!!

Noisia (sp) also is a act i wanna see doing breaks instead of dnb....
I got a mix of noisia on the radio one that is just plain SICK
for real man, any good show up there let me know and I will be happy to meet up and buy you a drink.....

not many breakbeat fans out here or anywhere in the us for that matter

meat katie ,rennie,splitloop,hyper,ed209........this list could go on forever

i am into a lot of the tearout i guess but any breaks i am into as long as its not baby anne simple stuff i love it

[jackstraw94086]

damn straight

[HEADSTRUCK]

Mark, surprisingly enough knowing about fucking dance music doesn't stop someone from being worthless shit.

thats very true but most people are clueless so i will start with the one that dont love justice and mstrkrft........or any ed banger

[Monklish]

You spin house. Just sayin'.

[gilley]

here we go... breakbeats fans. They are good but not the best dj act present at Coachella this year, and no I'm not talking about any Trance dj. That's another disappointment this year.

[HEADSTRUCK]

You spin house. Just sayin'.

sometimes I do......

nothing wrong with that

i spin

everything besides trance

[Monklish]

And I checked--Freestylers were at FSOB in fucking 2008. What the hell is the deal with that poster?

[HEADSTRUCK]

did you look at the dates??

that is from 08 my friend

couldnt find the 09 one

who would you say is the best DJ present this year at coachella? I understand Craze & Klever are both very talented DJ's which i will not miss but for breaks i think plumps might take them out. Chemical Brothers are incredible producers but from what i have heard, i have never witnessed it, they can't mix worth a damn but now i can see first hand.

[Monklish]

Well no, no I didn't. I wasn't expecting you to post an old concert poster. That's weird.

[HEADSTRUCK]

craze can do tricks but cant beat match to save his life


HANDS DOWN PLUMP DJS ARE THE BEST DJ ACT AT COACHELLA, IF YOU THINK OTHERWISE YOU DONT KNOW SHIT ABOUT EDM

[HEADSTRUCK]

Well no, no I didn't. I wasn't expecting you to post an old concert poster. That's weird.

i was just pointing out the fact that nobody here can do breaks show like the rest of the world.....

[Monklish]

The rest of the world has been better at electronic music for like two decades now. Shush.

[Distorted_Jungle]

i would say he is hit and miss, every time i have seen him spin DnB it is straight FIRE!

[HEADSTRUCK]

thats in the US....even cali cant keep up with FL(or most of the us) of all places so shut your fucking mouth....

go fuck with another thread cause this ones for people that know breaks and YOU DONT

[HEADSTRUCK]

i would say he is hit and miss, every time i have seen him spin DnB it is straight FIRE!

every time I have seen him play dnb he is terrible

[Monklish]

See? Told you this kid sucks.

[HEADSTRUCK]

*sighs*

Randy if I didnt love you.......

[Monklish]

Someone has to look out for you, dumbfuck. Otherwise you hand your camera around to strangers and offer to hang out with assheads so you can talk about breakbeats with them.

[HEADSTRUCK]

you got me on the camera


I cant help that like like good choons and most others dont........

[HEADSTRUCK]

hey at least those cops didnt walk though that door.....

that was key

no thanks to barb

[HEADSTRUCK]

BACK TO THE
PLUMP ONES
AT HAND PLEASE

[HEADSTRUCK]

[kronz420]

craze can do tricks but cant beat match to save his life

SUPER FAIL!

[HEADSTRUCK]

r u kidding? dnb is a no no with him

[CalmerThanYou]

He Got Beef/Shifting Gears

[CalmerThanYou]

i really like Electric Disco too, but thats not new.

edit: also, ive just recently gotten into breaks via pandora, and holy fuck, definitely one of my favorite sounds for sure.

[CalmerThanYou]

thats not cool

[jackstraw94086]

If you say crookers or beetroots are the best I will slap you

then I'll slap you again with young blood's foreskin.

[jackstraw94086]

If the plumps do fucking resort to electric disco it better be a totally freaked out version that nobody even in europe could have heard.

If they play it straight I'm demanding my money back.
We waited al this time for those stoners to finally get a visa they better not fuck it up.

[Distorted_Jungle]

See? Told you this kid sucks.


Dude you are a moron, that's all i have to say plain and simple a straight moron.

every time I have seen him play dnb he is terrible


this is one thing i'm going to have to disagree with you on, every time i have seen craze do a DnB set it has been pretty sick. But like you said BACK TO THE PLUMP ONES!

[givinguptheghost]

I would kill to catch;
Far Too Loud
Renie Pilgrem
Screwface
Autobots

so if you ever see those names in SF please let me know.

rennie pilgrem is at kelly mission rock (SF) on june 20 with elite force (my favorite DJ in the world for the past 2 years)... keep tabs on www.opelproductions.com for the best breaks parties in SF...

[givinguptheghost]

as far as breaks scenes go in the US they are pretty weak

Milwaukee: Had an emerging breaks scene but with the cities nite life being weak didnt last long. I threw mostly drum and bass/breaks show with dnb headliners cause after I had Deep Impact out and realized nobody knew who he was it wasnt worth my money being wasted. There is still a crew in milwaukee "Better Breakbeat Bureau"www.myspace.com/betterbreakbeatbureau
witch I am still part of pushes hard but struggles. They have had acts such as General Midi, Auotbotz, Slyde, Fixx and so on out but its really tough to get kids out.

Chicago: Is kinda the same as milwaukee but is a bigger city so they have had more luck. With Keith Mac moving there a few years ago they have seen a rise in big name breaks acts play Chicago. They tend to puch more of the Electro Breaks sound though....

Fl: The Fl breaks scene is still rather large but not for me. I am not a fan of US breaks, to me they are simple and non climatic. I prefer that hard gritty but yet still funky sound of nu skool breaks.

Why cant I live overseas???

give props in chicago to tolgar and local hero as well as keith mac for helping build the breaks scene.... my issue with chicago is that people just couldn't fucking cut loose on the dance floor like they did in SF... also - NYC scene is growing... newmindspace hosted SLYDE (plump dj pals on fingerlickin) and ICON (sf) last weekend... both playing brutal breaks sets before jelo rocked the electro. also, vitamin B (www.vitaminbreaks.com) has a good contingent and my new crew (www.jungoroad.com) is working on bringing out the plump djs in the coming year...

but as for 'the breaks scene in the US being weak'... overall - yes, i agree... but it's an *awesome* community of people... especially in san francisco. wherever you go and meet breaks fans, it makes for good company. :)
san francisco is purely amazing for that reason. i could list off a dozen separate crews that have regular weekly breaks events - in clubs and 'renegades' - each with about 10 core DJs and a hundreds of supporters... all cross-pollinated with each others fans... and a healthy number of producers... of course, that doesn't include burning man - where you'll hear more breaks in one week than anywhere in the world. this year will have the best of the best flying in from all over the world to play at opulent temple.

[givinguptheghost]

getting back to the plumps - i already listed some of my favorite tracks in a previous thread... but i will also mention the SICK re-working of 'beat myself up' on the single... icon dropped it in NYC this past weekend and absolutely SLAYED the crowd. classic brutal plump DJ beats... go snag it on itunes and bump VERY LOUD!! :)

[HEADSTRUCK]

yes Tolgar and Local Hero do get credit for a lot of the breaks going on in chicago even though they both seem to be playing electro now.


Thanks for the info and the link man, I will def be coming up to SF in june for that show. How is that venue?

[merznerve]

did you look at the dates??

that is from 08 my friend

couldnt find the 09 one

and that line up was sick

this year it was VIRAM vs FSOB
heres the flier:
http://www.circle-management.com/eflyer.jpg

[HEADSTRUCK]

such sick line up once again, I think I need to get my ass to that next year. Fuck even going to Ultra I just want to do that show.

[Distorted_Jungle]

that's the party i was telling you about, this was the first year i didn't make it to ultra since i knew about it but i am glad i am going to coachella instead over ultra minus the club events like FSOB VS VIRAM among other ones. Ultra and Coachella are WAAAY different vibes.

[HEADSTRUCK]

I never go cause its so close to coachella and cant swing both but it doesnt bother me cause I have no real need to go to Ultra. I would like to go down there and just hit up all the other shows that week though.

[Distorted_Jungle]

yeah next year i am planning on going for the week if i have the funds next year because all the club events BURN ultra, but coachella remains supreme durring that time of the year for obvious reasons.

[givinguptheghost]

How is that venue?

haven't been personally... but i hear it's great. indoor/outdoor stages overlooking the bay. that's where opel got it's start... huge parties back in the day... kelly mission rock disappeared for a while, and now they're open again. opel 7 year next weekend has meat katie, dylan rhymes at kmr, then elite force and rennie in june... what more can you ask for?

[givinguptheghost]

here's a link to a story i posted about coachella and the plump DJs on my blog/podcast jungo road:

http://jungoroad.com/2009/04/13/plump-djs-invade-the-usa/

[wazdog]

Very much looking forward to the Plumps. They always bring out something special for festivals (they did killer sets in Melbourne in 2008 and Sydney too). Much like the Stanton Warriors.

[digitaldragon03]

Plump vs YYY. FUCK!

[HEADSTRUCK]

right.....worst conflict ever

[djandrews25]

Plump Dj's do not deserve to be offended the way gv did by putting christopher lawrence higher. Who gives a shit about him?

[digitaldragon03]

Plump DJs and Perry Ferrel need to be switched. Seriously. Both YYY and Plump DJs are two artists that were both unanimously praised on this board, no one made a negative comment about them. They need different time slots.

[givinguptheghost]

after the plump DJs rape your ears at coachella and leave you begging for more:

go to ---->
