Dance music?

Never, ever associate dance music with crap like The Streets.

if it dont make sense to ya then ya dont get it....you answered my question...now...cock off

have to disagree with you Mr. Mystery (& i normally dont), but Mike Skinner although not dance as you think of it in the first sense, makes damn fine tunes which reflect the urban soundscape and youth in the UK's cities rather accurately.

Its Too Late
Weak Become Heroes

^^^^^These two tracks are vastly superior to a vast majority of trance drivel that gets a release (and i dont just mean mainstream stuff). Mike Skinner is a skilled producer and evidently a fantastic lyricist. He successfully bridged the UK Dance, Garage and Indie genres when this album came out to much acclaim. Although ill admit the album does take repeat listening to appreciate it fully, but now im a firm advocate of The Streets music.

Not sure how the second album is going to turn out though, i remain sceptical.

But i dont really have much idea what steve neil is on about either.

Why didn't you say that in the first place then, Steve?

How nice.
However I have stated my opinion and I stand by it.

maybe when asking something you should do better than use 6 one-syllable words and try and explain your question


Posted by steven neil on Jan-18-2004 02:03:

Fair enough.

Anyway, if it's any consolation I love "The Weak Become Heroes (Ashley Beedle's Love Bug Vocal Mix)".


Posted by steven neil on Jan-18-2004 03:11:

cant think of a bad track on the albumn...i spose you have to be from london or birmingham to fully appreciate it


Posted by m0sh on Jan-18-2004 07:16:

For some reason I love The Streets - It's Too Late (High Contrast Remix) which is d'n'b


Posted by TwoPlow on Jan-18-2004 07:59:

Mike Skinner is fucking amazing. It's really nice to hear something truly innovative. Stay Positive is my favorite song on the album by far. It's Too Late is good though.

I wouldn't call it Dance music. It doesn't really sound dancefloor oriented to me at all.


Posted by TheTornado on Jan-18-2004 08:25:

I love The Streets.

Mike Skinner is hilarious. "Original Pirate Material" is one of the best albums I've heard in a while.

I love the production on "Don't Mug Yourself".

Just gotta find open-minded people and they'll think that it's cool to meet someone from another country...it sux tho, lots of people are narrow-minded and will assume stereotypes and shit without getting to know you.

all right then mate take it easy. now the streets may not be dance music but its excellent music, and its true, i believe he is one of he most innovative thing to come out of music for a long time...

dance music is a genre that covers a massive amount of ground so, it also includes breaks which i believe SOME of the streets songs fit into...
