psydoll Posted November 18, 2005 Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 Ugly Duckling were fantastic at Kef last time - Pigeon John was a great support as well, any chance of getting him back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wax Posted November 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 Slightly confused: I take it there wasn't a typo and you mean Daddi G of Kode9/Hyperdub association and not Daddy G of Massive Attack fame? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would make for a strange and confusing double bill... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wax Posted November 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Brilliant! Did actually look at Daddy G a while ago, and I think Snafu did too. Wasn't too sure what response we would get. I know the Massive Attack association would sell, but wasn't sure. I might make some enquiries again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lepeep Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Who's AJ from aberdeen ?he he, nice point "the US have moron rappers, we have people with intelligent rap..." (quite so!)hold on...what about AntiCon ? (or are they too high brow ?)"People are fed up listening to the likes of 50 Cent going on about their own excesses. People like British artists because they bring a more intelligent message through rap music. I would like to see the UK instrumental hip-hop scene get more recognition - it's second to none.AJ, Aberdeen "(discussion about UK rap in the US) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isho Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Wow New Kingdom, a blast from the past. Unicorns Were Horses was pretty good from what I recall. I don't think they are still on the go though. Cannibal Ox was one of the best shows I've seen live. It was them an Aesop Rock and I must admit I expected a bit of a lacklustre show but it was super good.Yea PUTS are a good show but for anyone who's been around a bit will have seen them many times (even I've dj'd with them a couple times). Same as Ugly Duckling.I guess they are safe bets though, well about as safe as it gets up here, it would just be nice to see some fresh acts, as long as people show up.
