For many, Dubstep is still quite a new genre but in Bristol peeps have been stomping to it for more than a hot minute. Admittedly I didn't get into it until early this year - I've known about it for a long time but it's only been until more recently that I've had to stand up and actually listen to what's happening as it's on the verge of exploding.
While I think Dubstep isn't for EVERYBODY, you can either find something that will break your skull or on the flipside make u wanna meditate and bop your head. I guess it depends on my mood, but I can handle both now. I would recommend the new listeners to start off with Joker and Guido's mixes but if you're already into Drum and Bass you can pretty much dive in with the hard stuff, so take your pick folks:

"Culture Clash on the Front Line" Documentary video. Jamaicans in St Pauls, Bristol
Can you believe next year is the 30th Anniversary of the St. Paul's riots? For most of us it happened just before our time, but we hear about it in stories told by our elders.
Peep the documentary below. It lays down the story from historical facts and community experiences that reflect the complexities of race in Bristol, directly traced to inequalities passed on from an earlier generation that suffered under the brutal legacy of slavery and colonialism. Today, more than ever, it is essential to preserve and divulgate this heritage, so the peoples of Bristol, blacks and whites, can better comprehend their social surrounding, can kill frustrations and demagogies and in many cases can get inspired for change.

Bristol Soul Part 1
There's loads of Hip Hop, Dubstep and D&B in Bristol but it seems rarely do the soul singers/groups get a mention, so this thread is dedicated to the soulful talent we have in Bristol. I'm a massive fan of soul (the hip-hop I listen to is mainly influenced by Soul & Jazz) and I've been a fan of various local singers for years and they need to get some props!!
In 2007, I went to show my support for Type & JB at Native. On that particular night a few other artists were also on the bill and this is where I first heard Phil King and Beth Rowley. The grand finale of the night was the Roots Elevation band, with the legendary Type Sun on production & JB Love on vocals. Shadz and Nicole Jackson also made guest appearances on the band’s set.
Each person made a huge impact on me and made the night truly memorable. They’ve all come a long way since then and I’m very pleased for each one of them and wish them the best of luck with their budding career’s.
In Part 1 of ‘Bristol Soul’ I bring to you the talent I saw performing on that special night. The footage below is not all from the same night and are taken by others.
Phil King
The song I adore most is ‘Leaves’, here is Phil performing it live (what a heart throb!):
For more songs and info, check out Phil’s profile on m32connections
Beth Rowley
Her voice is quite haunting in person, I had chills listening to her at the gig. She’s such a huge, huge talent. Imagine my glee when some years later catching a tube in London the walls were swamped with her album posters everywhere. Go girl!
Type & JB with the Roots Elevation Band
Here are the snippets I recorded of the night on my phone, Type is on the Drums and JB is of course singing. Shadz is also on stage backing up JB.
To listen to the songs in better quality, check the m32connections profile.
I absolutely love Type’s music and I have to give him huge props. I had this video mailed to me a while ago, it's a video for a performing arts dancer 'Wilkie' but Type produced the track, WARNING - it's a deep one. let it load up, turn the lights down & let your breathing settle...=]

Still Waters Run Deep - Part 3 from Wilkie Branson on Vimeo.
When I heard this, I was literally speechless... it was like listening to Jazzanova or Cinematic Orchestra or something! Type deserves HUGE Props!!!
To check out more on Type, click here
Type is working on his new album so watch out for that and there's a strong chance JB will be on there too. They had worked on so much together in the past, it would be a shame if it went to waste so fingers crossed we see some Type & JB tracks on there.
Shadz
Many of you will know Shadz very well as he’s making big waves in the Bristol circuit. He is now the front man for the Roots Elevation band, meanwhile JB is pursuing his acting career (you might remember him in Adulthood) anyway, Shadz is working extremely hard. Not only is he a member of the band, he is a solo artist in his own right and also member to two other crews ‘Statix’ and ‘Central Spillz’. A couple of tunes of his have been released under M4 Records and ISP and I’m so proud of his progress.
Here is a clip of Shadz the night I saw him on stage with Type & JB:
See how he has progressed with Roots Elevation now:
Truly AMAZING! I love it.
For more info check out Shadz here
Nicole Jackson
And the very last person I will mention in today’s blog is Nicole Jackson. She also came on stage with the Roots Elevation band to perform alongside JB & Shadz with the track entitled ‘Let me know’. I don’t have live footage of this song but you can check Types myspace to listen to it.
In the meantime, check out this vocal by Nicole in her bedroom:
Does she look familiar to you? Well that’s because she was on this years X-Factor and made it to the judges house:
I'm sure she'd rather forget that clip but I thought she was amazing and call me biased but I still think Dani should have picked Nicole for the finals!

RE - Best things in life are free Mixtape
The best things in life make you feel hype, make you want to bus' a little skank. The best things in life make you feel happy, sad and everything in between. The best things in life make you think, make you empathise, make you wonder. The Best Things In Life Are Free; a trite statement perhaps, but one that Bristolian rapper R.E. is doing his best to prove true, by giving away over 40 of his baddest studio tracks for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
A truly talented lyricist, R.E. is equally at home spitting Hip Hop bars or riding Grime and Bassline riddims with alarming accuracy and pyrotechnic lyrical content. A member of Bristol's auspicious and highly regarded Da Label - M.T.G. crew since 2002, R.E. has perfected his craft and carved out a swathe of respect with a string of razor-sharp releases and guest appearances, cementing his status as one of the finest MCs the South West has to offer.
R.E's bars cover a broad spectrum of subjects; he is much more than the typical urban musician that UK Grime and Hip Hop have become so painfully accustomed to. At first listen, the subject matter seems to belie this, but dig deeper into R.E's psyche and you will find an introspective, deep, and sometimes painfully honest writer. Sharp wordplays and intelligent metaphors eke out tales of reality on the roads, showcasing the highs and lows, documenting gritty truths, rather than the artless braggadocio preferred by so many of his peers.
On the track Only god can judge me, R.E. muses on the trials and tribulations of trying to keep his hands clean in a dirty world; "The mortgages they offer me will get me just flats / I don't trust cats / I'm trying not to touch crack / Legal route's long, and pay's not much, that / got me feeling like fuck that". It is statements such as this that lend R.E's style such a unique perspective.
Baiting me up sees the lyricist contemplating his treatment of women past and present. R.E. eschews the usual unilateral approach to the subject of females in favour of a more real approach; from the opening gambit "Real talk, all these gyal tunes are baiting me up / it's alarming, but these things are waking me up" R.E. goes on to soliloquise about the guilty admissions that so many in his position deny feeling.
R.E. has put together a stunning mixtape, sure to be met with universal acclaim. The fact that it is free is astonishing, and indicitave perhaps of the cards that Da Label have up their collective sleeve. This lot are definitely ones to be watching. The best things in life really are free.

TriggaDon
Ok, so today I'm gonna give the low down on an artist called 'TriggaDon'. Some of you may be recognise TriggaDon from 'BS5' from back in the day or even the group 'OBLIT-R8'. Today, TriggaDon is a solo artist who forms part of Da Label-MTG and WiseGuy Entertainment. His full official biography and NEW TRACKS! can be found here:
http://www.m32connections.co.uk/profiles/TriggaDon1/profile.html
Me personally, I had heard of BS5 and 'OBLIT-R8' many years ago and although their influence was heavy on a street level, I admit to being none the wiser who the artists were individually & who actually made up these groups. Therefore when I listen to TriggaDon now, in my eyes I see him as a new artist despite him being around for so long. I listen to who he was then and who he is now and he's come a long long way. He's still the same guy, except he's maturer and wiser in both life and the music business.
In meeting TriggaDon, I was pleasantly surprised to discover just how determined and motivated he is about his music. Having heard his new tracks I knew this was a man on a mission and I felt very inspired by his presence. I wish TriggaDon the best of luck - personally, I think his music deserves a place in the charts, here are my reviews for his new 2 tracks:
"Rising star of Bristol's hiphop and urban scene gives us the ultimate new friday night anthem with 'We Go Hard'"
Emerging from Bristol's burgeoning hiphop scene comes an emcee who stands head & shoulders above the water margin. Hot on the heels of artists such as Wiley and Dizzee Rascal, Triggadon brings us 2 new anthems for the clubgoing congregation.
WE GO HARD' feat. Dre Pound and Sophia May
Made up of beefy electro synths and a stomping 4x4 rhythm with faultless production from Range, it's an uplifting instant classic for all the weekend clubbers who've been -as Sophia May's silky smooth vocal hook puts it - working hard through the week. It's more catchy than Swine Flu and will get stuck in your head before Triggadon's halfway through his smooth flowing verses."
'MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE DANCEFLOOR'
Triggadon doesn't really need to tell you to 'make your way to the dancefloor', as soon as the rhythm starts it's obviously a club banger sure to get the ravers skanking. Produced by Musick Man of WiseGuy Entertainment, Trigga's irresistable quick and slick vocals simply adds to this party anthem which is sure to mash up any dance floor.
TriggaDon has already opened events for Hiphop Heavyweights such as Cormega and has performed on stage alongside the likes of Tinchy Stryder & JME. Now it's time the UK took notice of TriggaDon, who is ready to take the country by storm.

Introduction
I thought it made sense to set up a blog for M32connections - any update I have for the website, any news on Bristol artists and anything at all interesting music or Bristol related I'm gonna post it up and you can get actively involved.
Since the website launched in November 2006, it has come along way since and to date there are currently 41 different artists featured on the website with more in the pipeline.
I must stress its a non profitable website and there are NO catches for anyone involved... it's all love ♥
I started the website initially back in '04/'05 as I was actively going to gigs in Bristol and it was during these times I met a lot of people who were very talented. It was like discovering this 'big secret' - all these people were known on the music circuit within Bristol but otherwise they struggled to be heard elsewhere. I wouldn't necessarily say I had any attributes to help these people but being the huge music fan that I am and with my design experience I decided to create the website (as a hobby in aid to artists).
During this process, I myself have discovered more artists, fell in love over again with the music and tried to help in any way I can.
Within the first month of launching the website, the website received over 60,000 hits through word of mouth alone... I was thrilled. Since then, the site has grown and grown, national radio stations have been in touch directly to play artists and it's become it's own community in itself.
People must think I'm either nuts of have an ulterior motive for spending time, money and effort in this website but when you get the love back from artists and fans, that's much more of a reward than anything for me.
I hope you enjoy the website, if there is anyone at all as passionate as me and would like to help in anyway - please get in touch, I would really appreciate any help I can receive as ultimately it will be the music that benefits.
