Have you given him the address?
Right, get him, get him, get him.
We're coming in, Rico, mate.
Let's go.
Hey, how's it going?
Crusher come along.
And this guy's called Bird, who's running from Jamie B.
Come out to my house and see me mix.
But he goes, let me see you, and I'll tell you.
And I've had some sick mix.
And he goes, yeah, you're on stage, shit.
And then all of a sudden, there was pipe right here.
Yeah.
Yo, pump, punch, don't not wait till the gym.
Glass for the halos, they rack to the brim.
Roll deep, so deep, they can't swim.
Doing it for Crusher, doing it for Kim.
He worked arms out, he wants to swing.
Traction guy punching a chin.
You better start by being, you gotta hide and be intervene.
When I was set up, I always wanted
to put the biggest air up of everyone.
It was the time I went up there.
But it all depends on the wind, the rain.
It all depends what you put up, aluminium, scaffolding,
mop sticks, or wood, pliers, sanding knife, screwdrivers,
tape, sold-on cut, no tape, not back 10 minutes.
How many times have you been up?
No, it's elbow lock, yeah.
Roll up those.
So this brings back a lot of memories.
Yeah, definitely.
Yeah, quite a lot.
It's nice up here.
You can have a buzz.
Put the radio on your buzz.
If you've got it, go straight back on, you know what I mean?
It's for everyone to hear.
Siggler Jeremy, if you don't know,
hip and a poonger, straight and a dog.
Siggler, if you want to sing,
let's just come in, I'm gonna dash in, come close.
So to remember it's pirate, it's not like whatever,
and I didn't really understand all that,
to be honest with you.
All I knew is he was just going to the studios
and doing his set, and then he'd come home.
Dorks sad.
Entire recode done.
Entire wants to be.
It's playing at Dark Garage, just Garage.
It was a tune called 138.
Oh, so I want to say something to you.
Hello?
It seems a wild one.
Run the ridin' big man.
We met on Pressure, I found it, didn't we?
Yeah, but usually we're on Rint.
Usually we're at Rivals for a little while,
because we was on Pressure.
I was on Pressure with you, that's why I'm...
No, not at First.
Oh, yeah, at First, no, sorry.
At the very beginning you was, weren't you?
Oh, kick-off, yeah.
Yeah, and then you and G went and done Rint,
and then it was Rint versus Pressure.
I wasn't allowed to talk to you.
Watch this one, it's a Slimzos one.
Breakdown, Whisper.
What was that, 002, I think?
No, 004.
All the others are just like old tunes,
what I don't play no more.
There's a couple of hardcore tunes, what I do play,
but they're all mixed up, really.
There's a dub plate on the floor that I'll get you.
Got a jam-locked VIP on that one.
Can you see that?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's the old dub plate.
And you were seeing yourself decks in here?
Yeah, I saw decks in here, records, computers,
PCs, Macs, it was ramming me, you could've even moved it.
Turn left on commercial range, then turn right.
When I first got decks, I got really, I get understanding.
I had one deck, I didn't have a pitch,
so I used to just play it,
and then use that pitch on the other deck to slow it down.
That's how I started.
A memory deck, it was.
Was it a station that you wanted to be on most?
I wanted to be on, like, 4FM, really.
I was just at Brocky, and there every Sunday.
We got Slimzos, because he did get me into this, you know?
From school, though.
You know, we used to go to total music at lunchtime.
Total music in Bethnal, cousin.
Oh, shit.
And spend all your money.
Ah!
Yeah, upstairs, like, to the top.
And jet at arm, like, jump in.
Call of Fame was the, that was the Holy Grail, bro.
That's mean, bro.
I used to be on Ritz and still listen to call.
They looked at us as a kid, something.
Yeah, we was a little, like, little shit.
Fucking up there.
Remember, they used to come and say, we're fucking up a rig in that.
Old-Tact Aleutia, beside God's R-R-P Yardee.
Old-Tact Jammer, just stepped in.
Get me. Old-Tact Man, cousin, Slick Man.
Yo, Old-Tact Aaron Hudson.
But I don't know where it is, yeah?
Yeah.
Here's a...
What's this one?
This is a No-Wee, Les Presse.
I think.
What, the pay-as-you-go?
Yeah, I think so.
Couple of them, right?
Yeah, I've got loads of them.
Wider's the crate, round here.
Wider must have got them done from JTS,
which is in Hackney, Digby Road,
or Freddy's Fresh Plate,
where we used to cut all our dog plates from.
That was in Hackney, that's the...
I was going to move the gas as well,
but Freddy's just close, earn it, and cheaper.
So, let's go there.
And then...
That's where you got to master Freddy's, like,
you could go there, go pick him up, go there on a weekend,
or any time, you know what I mean?
Like, one can steady us, right, and you come here.
Yeah.
BAD MAN, A BAD MAN, I SAID I MINE SHOCK,
TELL A HURRY YORK, TELL A MAN SHOCK, CHOCK,
HOP MAN, I HOP MAN, LIKE, WALK, WALK,
THEY MINE FIGURE, AIR, TIME, LIKE, SHOCK, DOCK,
HOT TO BE SHIT, I WANT, LIKE, THOUGHT,
HOT IN THE ROAD, WANT, ON THE EYEBOW,
WANT TO DRACK MY BOW, DO WE GET BANGED SO HOT,
LIKE YOU CAN'T SEE A WORLD IN THE TIME BOW,
BUT AN EYES COLD, WHEN I'M ON THE EYEBOW,
store karşemoutski groove on, you don't wanna smooth like a 90.
We should give'em them before做ritю week before Friday,
seven oíclock, pick'em up, be there the whole day cutting
dubs or getin' somelangu coat and done talked a taste
Sweeties and our thre�erdub for the weekend, and radio as well.
in a rave, you know, he was literally collecting dub plates
for that three to five show.
Who made that?
Everything's old, but it's not old.
What's the matter with you?
It's old when it's on classic for 10 years.
He says dub plates are old and they're dub plates.
The first person to tell your tune was Heartless, yeah?
I had it the next day.
My phone died out straight away.
I got the tune.
I met him at Kilburn High Street or Train Station
and he'd give it to me on record.
It was 12 inches, white label.
I thought, wow.
When I heard that, I mean, it was right about...
Tuesday that, you know what I mean?
Shit.
Did you make it 2001?
That was 2001, yeah.
Aw.
I think it's the only time I tuned into you
when you used to go on radio with Wiley,
Doug's and Dizzy and Dogsy.
Yeah.
That's the only time he's...
Because any other time, I'd be with him and see him.
I spoke to him, you know what I mean?
You come out and you started doing some sex
and you joined Roll B for that.
I came out and I was doing alright.
I thought I was going to get...
I was doing nang.
I was doing loads of stuff and then I got nicked again.
This is beat.
Yeah, it's done, yeah.
Done, yeah?
Yeah, we'll get on there.
Let's have a push.
Yeah, play the bottom two.
All right.
That's big, that one.
You've got a snake.
Nah, it's a lizard.
It's a grepo.
Same running.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I bought it off someone in South London
about three years ago for my kids, but...
Right.
Damn it.
Is he friendly?
Yeah, he's alright.
Yeah, he's cold.
Do you get him out of the box?
Yeah.
Take him out and rub him in the bar
when he's around.
Okay.
DJ Star and a Kiss will beat DJ Slimsy,
Agent X, DJ Bigger,
DJ Frenzy,
Culprit,
Funky P and Jimmy B
with MC's Viper,
Maxwell D,
Plague,
MC Precious and Special MC.
All this plus a live PA
from the More Fire crew performing Oi.
The price for this night is £10
before 11 and more after,
and the dress code is sexy and stylish,
so no caps or trainers.
Well, so into it,
I want it to be really big DJ,
like, so badly.
I used to go around in Riven Division
and put in like little pictures of how you go,
saying Sunday free to fire.
I used to do loads of stuff.
Do special tapes, CDs.
The first booking was with me and Plague.
It was in Leicester,
a tailgate club.
I remember driving them up,
but I couldn't believe it.
I was going to play out.
It was a lot of booking.
I was only getting about 200 credits,
but it seemed a lot.
And then all of a sudden,
everyone was talking about Paris to go.
They got really busy.
Friday could be in Leeds,
Saturday could be in Liverpool,
and then Sunday in Manchester.
So it was like a mad weekend.
Paris you got inside, you know.
Hey, one question.
Hey, Wiley,
don't let me get two reals.
I'm going to try for my night camp.
Don't let me get camped.
Who wants to be known?
Who wants to be known?
Hey, Simpsons.
Hey, Simpsons.
Oh, we need the win.
We need the win.
When I came out of my big bird,
Wiley took me to a raid, bro.
Took me to tune in one night.
And I saw it and I thought, wow.
Listen, when the security came out,
I thought, wow, what's going on?
Usually, you've got to go and tell the security who you are.
And say, I'm thems here, mate.
Can you get...
They came out.
And before we even got on the stage,
the crowd was saying, what the...
Yeah, what the crowd is?
Yes.
You know, we was really proud of him
because when my mum was alive,
we used to have a walrus in the Roman,
and he had a CD come out called Street Beats at the time.
Because she's got, oh, that's my grandson.
And these girls just swamped her.
That's when I realised people were talking about us.
Especially when you go to a raid and shout your name.
And, you know what I mean?
It's good.
Really competitive.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But sometimes with DJs, I wouldn't really play it, really.
Yeah.
He bust tunes, innit?
He was the guy that...
If you got your tune and you played your tune,
every DJ was going to want your tune that week.
And you know why, as well,
because he used to have the exclusive
and find a certain sound
and have no the producers directly
that are making them bangers
and getting them first and playing them first
and having them on play.
And even having the power to say,
no, don't give it to no one yet.
I'm going to have that for a month
and kill it and make everybody want it.
And then, when you release it,
it's going to sell that hot cake.
Every DJ is going to want it or want to play it.
I got that in about 2002
when I was in your high school
and he burned a Nick cage.
It's like...
Er, like...
A gold disc.
Yeah, it's like a gold, by the way.
I've sold so many thousands.
I don't know if it was 250,000 or 500,000.
I was advanced to people.
You've got to mean that.
People didn't understand it, but...
I was proud that I loved you on dub plate
and people weren't really fit.
But about a year later,
I was doing...
It was one of the biggest tunes.
One time, I saw Dillie
moving the vision.
It was like, say, 2004.
He just called me up and said,
oh, yeah, he wants to do a tune.
He went to a studio.
He heard the first tune on there
was the stand-up tool.
Like, first verse, chorus,
and then that was it.
He was number one?
No, number ten.
Oh, ten?
That's still good.
That was his first top ten.
That was it?
Wow, that's good.
I was making one.
It was actually like a two-step tune.
And I was just thinking,
let me just try to sound different.
So that's when I kind of just slowed it down.
And at first, a lot of people didn't get it.
Slim was...
Yeah, Slim was probably the first DJ.
Yeah, he was the first DJ to play.
He got it straight away and was on it.
When you get to the DJs, whatever you're doing,
keep doing it.
Keep doing it.
Until you make them understand that that's what you do.
You get me?
Keep doing it.
Don't watch no face.
All this flashing bullshit is all fun and not.
But do your thing in there.
It's about the music.
It's real.
And if you get to the mainstream,
don't take no notes of these baggy industry people, man.
They're facies, man.
When you get to the new tunes,
I'll give you some new tunes.
I got something to put to my email today.
It's got a download on them, so...
I think that's the right one.
How often do you get sent tunes?
I get sent tunes, like, every day, really.
Weird emails.
It's mad ones.
I don't know, though.
They're fun, but...
Yeah, that's right.
You've got that one on there as well, yeah?
Yeah, that was me.
Stop the record!
You've got rid of loads of tunes, right?
Oh, yeah, I've sold them, yeah.
I just...
They were, like, old Gary's tunes.
I'd...
Just, like, from back in 97, 98,
I'd sold them to my mate James.
Sold them to him for, like, a cheat.
There was all in the cupboard.
I just didn't want them in there, no more.
Every time I opened the door, I kept falling all out.
There was loads, there's thousands.
I've sold them to him, cheat.
You know, a lot of good characters just come in.
People from Ministry of Sounds, Nigel Ben,
a couple of footballers.
Who's the guy?
Goldy, is it?
Yeah, Goldy.
And another rapper, he's famous now, isn't he?
Wiley.
No, Rascal, that's Disney Rascal, yeah.
All used to come here, all the black footballers, you know.
That was lovely.
And he goes to the silly supermarket, it's what you get.
It's all a lot of crap.
Can I say that?
Yeah, it's fine.
It's all a lot of crap.
Everyone gone now, I don't know what they're doing,
but I think there's a bit of black cabbies now.
But they were nice people, though.
Yeah.
Everything changes.
Nothing less.
Boys, they're like 2006.
They've got a court in the room.
They wanted to kick someone for all the damage.
They wanted to take down someone, you know what I mean?
Making zombies.
Yeah, making zombies, yeah.
I've gone down the roof for five years.
I tried to just do a couple of sets,
but it weren't the same.
I think I'm going mad, man.
Yo, I think I'm losing my mind.
Yo, I've got so much on my plate.
I've got so much on my plate.
I think I'm going mad, man.
I'm going mad, yo.
If you can lose your mind, it's easy.
I'm going mad.
I can't see forward.
I've missed cutting wires.
I've missed cutting the aerials.
But it's that part of your life, you know what I mean?
It's like losing a brother or someone.
What I love is to love going on the roof
all the times of the night, like getting dirty.
The smell of the roof.
You get out of a bus from it, you know what I mean?
It's like a big bad patch, like a four-year
or might be a five-year patch where
I just weren't really doing much.
I just weren't really playing out.
I don't know if it went downhill,
but people say it went through a mad patch.
I was just...
I got a bit ill, to tell the truth.
Put loads of weight on.
And when I was on the radio,
I was doing sets, playing out.
I was living a fast life,
and then it all stopped.
Oh, oh, oh.
Was there a single thing that was, like...
What, that made me...
I'm ready to go again.
Yeah, I just heard some of the tunes
that some of the people were making,
and I thought, well, that's all right.
Well, it was big from years ago.
People still know me and look up to me,
like they're still, like,
through the people and producers in there.
And then, yeah, I'll get on well with them, yeah.
That's all good.
Been doing it for, like, over 10, 15 years.
Yeah, I've been DJing since I was 13.
I still listen to rints, like,
still, like, talk to Gene sometimes.
But I used to be on there every day,
and I mean, I used to be on there, like, every week,
every night.
The stuff is still futuristic, so it's been cool
to get to, like, bring some of the tunes
that, like, Slim brought out over there.
I've done Boyd Room in New York.
People just danced, like, was dancing,
and I thought they wouldn't really dance to the music
because it was a bit dark and stuff like that.
But we've got a...
It ended.
Yeah.
It's a good little show we've done.
Straight after.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Before it won all around the world, like,
it won that to a few countries,
but now it's worldwide, like, do you know what I mean?
It might not be as big as years ago,
but it's still right, do you know what I mean?
It's still the new thing, isn't it?
And you're excited to, like, I mean,
because travelling abroad is probably something
that you didn't do a lot of before.
Yeah, no, no, I didn't travel a lot.
I went to, like, Vienna, stuff like that, like Amsterdam,
like, a few places close to, like, UK.
Yeah.
But now, people, like, get bookings everywhere.
It's all looking good, like, more bookings abroad,
meet more people, good people around the world.
Even, like, just listening to that stuff online,
getting sent tunes from all different people.
Yeah, it's really good.
Yeah, wicked.
Okay, cool.
Nice one, man.
Go, DJ!
