Started off the show with a selection of new cuts tonight… some were going down OK in the chatroom, others got the gasface!  You never know… I always try to break new music, some of the stuff I hadn’t even played myself so I was as blind as you guys… I quite like that though, cos it’s like I’m listening for the first time along with you lot…

So we had the phone number on air and received a couple of voicemails that I dropped before the chatroom selection, including some cyberman shenanigans from TJ Fresh!

Dropped a cut off the new EP Whirlwind D & Me are putting out also tonight, first exclusive play, also played the first worldwide airing of Pure Destructive Power from Hardnoise, many thanks to Gibo!

So what else a gwaarn… all the usual crowd in the chatroom, the subject of the tracks from the chatroom was the overkill of MoD presence with poxy snipers, the biggest battleship in the UK fleet, HMS Ocean docked in the Thames and all these f*cking surface to air missiles all over the gaff, I mean come on, REALLY?  That plus the fact I was iinstalling Turkish satelite for this dude this week and upon setting up the receiver in front of his non English speaking missus & 1 year old kid, you guessed it, mystery meat was playing the in and out game in full techniclolour… so, smut & destruction!

Thanks to all for locking in… Check back for news on Scenes14 doing a new show soon… Gonna rip Repo’s idea off and stick the tracklist in the comments below, so there!

On a Thursday night at 9PM, you need to get in the chatroom to fully get the feel for the show… listening to the show without the context of the chatroom is…. well, a bit detached!

There’s always loads of banter and if you’ve been a long time listener without getting involved, make the next show your first in the chatroom… you’ll be well received and maybe join in every week!

Sample the delights of News at 10… when I sound off about whatever is going in both in my own little bubble or reality and whatever is penetrating the consciousness of the average Ageing B Boy!  This week I announced the Disco Scratch MixTape Swap (read more on that in the forum here)

Also this week we introduce LG’s myth-bust-the-facts corner… wanna know if something you heard from the depths of the moss covered, misty past of Hip Hop is true or not, get in the forum & ask LG!

Sup you crazy kids, the turbulence of the shutting down and control of public upload services made me look around to see how I could share all the past shows, tape rips etc.  So I discovered MixCloud has lifted their upper file size, length and volume of uploads, so this is a perfect platform for Disco Scratch Radio as it’s aimed squarely at radio, podcasts & mixes.

So, over the coming weeks/months/years as and when I get time I’ll be adding to the archive… it’s a slightly lengthy process, plumbing in all the information, but it’s worth it…

Here’s the first show… hopefully if I get a couple up a week within the year I should have caught up and get the show on there as soon as it’s done every week.

So, here’s the first ever Disco Scratch Radio show, broadcast on Freestyle FM on 08.04.2010, the day Malcolm Mclaren died, so I did a little tribute…

Dust… that’s what I had on my fingers after doing the show tonight.  I should have had some snooker referee gloves on handling the wax for tonight’s show!  Some nice old slabs of late 80s US plastic, as usual digging into the US stack plus a couple of new cuts.  I’m now doing jam news every week, on the top of the hour at 10PM every week.  Starting next week I’m also going to do a Disco Scratch chart.  This will run as a post on the Disco Scratch Forum where you can vote for your favourite tracks of the moment, real basic, best tracks reach the top, those that don’t won’t!  It’ll probably take a bit of fine tuning, it’s not like there’s stacks of new material that appeals to the Disco Scratch audience, so I take it on myself to put say 20 tracks on the site and you can vote for your favourite.

I’ll just see how it goes, it’ll be interesting to see how much interaction there is, I mean I think of Disco Scratch like this… once a week at around ten to 9, old buggers shuffle into a darkened working mans club, put their coats on the stand revealing a faded T Shirt bearing the name of an old UK crew, order a cup of tea, break the seal on a packet of chocolate hob nobs and sit down to sift through the beats entering their domes!  At 11 O’clock, they all say their goodbyes in standard Hip Hop sign off format and leave the room with a warm glow, a tea induced high and a bellyfull of family circle biscuit selections… a happy soul to know that there’s life in the old dog yet! (To Quote Websta!)

I’m the barman, chatting with you all and providing the background music… the fire crackles away in the background while we smile at memories of B Boy battles, scarpering from the plod and rival crews after bombing the neighbourhood and doing pause button mixes…

But, for any hard rocks reading this, trust me, Disco Scratch is no pushover, if need be we’ll form like Voltron (whatever the HELL our yank cousins mean by that!) and throw our Hob Nobs in the air while we grab handfulls of import 12s to battle you with, DON’T test the Disco Scratch Sound System, we’ll draw tracks that’ll stomp the plop out of ya!  Just look at our tracklists from the past shows…

Ahem, anyway, got carried away there, download’s after the tracklist, Enjoy!!!!

Disco Scratch 9 MC Duke

The thing about having so much love for the old school UK scene is I am a fan as much as I am someone who runs a website.  These interviews are so fascinating and uncover so much stuff, I don’t think I’ll stop until I’ve unearthed every rock of UK Hip Hop!  MC Duke has blessed me with a couple of hours of his time and gone into serious depth about his roots in the Hip Hop culture.

For the uninitiated, MC Duke started with Hip Hop from it’s very first inception in the UK.  Before Hip Hop was even in the UK he was a record boy with his dad, learning the craft and being able to DJ and hold a crowd with just one turntable and a mic.  This was well before Rappers Delight even hit these shores.  From his early trip to the Bronx and return to the UK with his experiences in Covent Garden, through the golden era of UK Hip Hop, there’s practically nothing Duke hasn’t experienced or seen.

Duke unearths loads of gems about the old school sphere of Hip Hop in it’s fledgling years, discussing the formation of the early scene, his years on Music Of Life, events he attended and touches on the infamous situation with Overlord X.  He also answers the questions put in by members of the Heroes Of UK Hip Hop Forum and the Disco Scratch forum.  It was a pleasure to verbalise with Duke and I hope all the listeners to the Disco Scratch Show also enjoy this…

Big respect to Duke and his extended fam for the time, energy and love for the true school of UK Hip Hop. Download after the tracklist…

Yes that’s right, grab your Motorola flip,stick a few cold Red Stripes in a bag,  borrow your mums car and drive up a hill nearby as you move your aerial about to listen to the dulcit tones of WaxOnWaxOff as he defecates in your ear canals with the dopest flavours from the UK, 21 years ago!  This week I was dusting off some old tunes and I’d sorted out a load of stuff and the majority was from 1989.  Upon closer inspection it dawned on me that 1989 was probably the best year for the UK and decided to do a 1989 special.

The tracks I play are full of wicked lyrical skills, def production, I mean cutting up stabs on top of breaks, like James Brown & The Meters while top rappers deliver raps so sharp you imagine them in pain after they finish rhyming, cutting the insides of their mouths with the razor sharp verbals.

This show takes you back to a time when the UK were HUNGRY for Hip Hop and keen to split from the US and stand on their own.  The UK had by this time got a solid enough base of radio stations, venues, record shops, producers, labels, engineers, club DJS and such to be self supportive and this show proves that.  Listen to the shout outs at the end of the MC Mello tracks “Bizzie Rhymin” to hear a nice slice of who was making the most noise at the time.

The only downer with this show is that I had a few gremlins in the studio last night and couldn’t record it at high quality and for some reason the stream went out at a lower quality so it’s not as bright as usual… but maybe that was fate?  Maybe someone used the force to manipulate that to give it a dusty tinge to replicate those static filled tapes from 1989, with the odd burst of the local taxi firm overriding your tape recording.  Still, the Disco Scratch logo was shone into the night, and the red Scratch phone rang at Repo136′s yard, where a mighty voice from one of the generals of the UK Army’s front line on maneuvers told me it was OK… he was recording…  download is at the bottom of the post after the tracklist…. Enjoy this show and get on next week for UK LEGEND MC DUKE!!!

Wicked show again last night thanks to all who got in the chatroom, made for a good laugh and was great to have the connections with other old school heads!  If you are reading this but have not got into the chatroom yet when the sho is live, you really should, I mean what else are you going to do on a Thursday night?  It’s after 9 so the kids are in bed, get your iPad, your lappy, your phone, DS lite, I dunno, your fridge with internet connectivity, put your headphones on so you don’t upset the missus with all this hardcore rap and get in the chatroom!

The rap contest was won by MC Dope Noise outta New Cross so respect to him, but no one rang up for the break to the beat so no winners there!  The break was from the Jesus Christ Superstar Soundtrack – Heaven On Their Minds, the rap was Blade – Watcha Waitin For.  So, hopefully see you in the chatroom!  Respect to all the old school soldiers…

This is what Hip Hop geeks dream about… especially UK ones!  For the uninitiated, Repo136 runs one of the most popular Old School UK Hip Hop sites around, Ageing B Boys Unite .  We started chatting about 2 years ago and found we had a lot in common.  A few months back, just before Christmas we were going to record a podcast but real life got in the way, so here we are with a full on interview to see what makes up the Repo man.  Some dope music and extremely in depth chat about the old days of life in Hip Hop in the UK.

So, join us for (what should have been but ended up being 2 1/2 hours) 2 hours ( *ahem) of old school UK Hip Hop banter with the man behind the early 90s rap fanzine “Juice”.  Enjoy!

If you are interested in telling the world your stories via the interview medium please get in contact, hit us up at thediscoscratch@gmail.com peace!
