GRIME：グライムコミュのGRINDIE...who knows?

Right I am sure most of you know about this but a new concept of grime music has appeared...GRINDIE

Grime + Indie = Grindie

The concept is indie/emo music mixed with grime. I think it's very cool and brings together East London's music scene very well. Check:

What do you think?

Hmm good question...

Of course the concept of 'grindie' is just a novelty...but it does work!

I think the indie influence gives the music a touch more refinement and adds a bit more musicality to it. Thought sometimes its even makes it sound even MORE raw.

Also for indie is gives it much more rhythm and 'あぶない’feel and the mc's can really flow on top of indie sounds.

But think of indie guitars and arrangement with grime beats and bass and of course that grimeeeeey atmosphere!

SP I think you are a little more optimistic than I am about the whole grindie thing ....

Just that sometimes Grindie can sound more raw because of the two different styles. Yes you are right about biased proportions, because sometimes he balance is in favour of indie then sometimes grime...hehe its weird!

I understand it is a novelty in some ways...but if you knew that there is little or no more chances for Grime raves and parties to happen here in London because the police shut them down (they think they are preventing violence!), you would be more optimistic about Grindie, because of the Indie twist it gives Grime mc's and producers a chance to take Grime back to where it really kicked off the CLUBS!

But there are still (smallish) things going on right? Dirty Canvas etc ... No full fledged raves much anymore I guess though wasnt there a Eskimo Dance semirecently, or did that get shut down too? I dont know that a half-Indie labelling will halt the shutdowns anyway---I'd expect that the cops would still hear *grime* and ignore the *plus indie* part.

Actually I was more worried about the aesthetics. I dont know if the grindie road has far to go---it seems like a bit of a dead end to me. Could be wrong though. I'd rather hear people pushing the core sound forward. Big up Wiley on that front ... the Tunnel Vision tapes (see associated thread) I think are pretty fucking nice.
