Booty House: Part 1

A recent post on the Holler Board has got me thinking about all the old bootleg house records I have. Now I am not talking about some Booty Love terrible cover of Lucy Pearl (side note: how could they butcher this so badly?? Mood II Swing had already made the definitive house version!). I am talking about some grimey, boompety boomp house. The sound championed by Derrick Carter, Honey Dijon and the like.
I will do a couple of posts on this as it was my preferred brand of house for a while.
Enjoy!

Grime Time

So, I have a love/hate relationship with grime. It varies wildly between groundbreaking artists (your Dizzee's, Kano's, Sway's etc) and what can only be described as kids from my local estate shouting about their 'ends'. However in the middle of these two sides there is a wealth of good tracks. I recently picked up this compilation put out by Channel U and thought I would share some of the highlights with you. Enjoy!
