This video takes a look at a new style of music coming out of London
called grime. With massive basslines, staggered beat patterns, and
heavy MC pressure, grime is the emerging sound of the UK underground.

In this video, we meet up with the B.I.G. Crew at one of their events in
San Francisco. They are one of the few groups in America that are
pushing this new sound.

    nice editing and great camera movement. i am not big on this style of music, but I respect it more now because of how nicely this was put together.

    I like how you let the artists and community tell the story without using any V/O, not easy to pull off. I've been looking for a grime night in SF, so I think I'll know where I'll be every 3rd Friday.

    On a related note, I recently met this new street magician from the UK named Dynamo who's act is very much steeped grime culture. Check him out online, but you'll have to see him in person to believe him. Kid's got skills:

    Might be a cool subject for a pod?

    Nicely done except I can't stand seeing someone on a microphone and not being able to hear them. Why canÂ’t we hear the rappers or singers? If you are not going to let me hear the people with the mics then just show me dancersÂ…

    I'm guessing they couldn't use the sound from inside the club cos they have to get clearance on all music for them to play it on tv. If you want to hear what goes on, tune in live every friday to www.westaddradio.com 9-11pm pst. for Grimewavefm. or just come out to the party and get bruk out. seen?
