Went to hear the Scratch Perverts at Cardiff Students Union last night. What a great night. They started out with their usual mix of new and old school hip hop from MOP (feat. Busta Rhymes) through Tribe called Quest, working it up to what must have been 45 minutes of real hard drum'n'bass from the likes of Twisted Individual via a remix of Breathe from the Prodigy. It's great to hear some turntablists mixing drum'n'bass, it brings a whole new angle on things.
The dance floor was electric all night, gradually giving it more and more energy as the atmosphere lifted and the beats got harder. When they dropped Nevermind in at the end everyone just went insane. Possibly the best time (out of 5 times) that I've heard them and definately the most dancy.
