JOKER via M.A.H

Heavy sounds from Joker on this video. He's definitely one to check, if you haven't already. His productions are right on the future beat shit that i have come to love so much. Synth loopy with ultra gully beats to match make for maximum skank out. Never seen him live, I have missed him both times he has played at a night i've been to, but Nomad, the MC on this one, made a surprise appearance at Bare Jokes in Brighton last year with Plastician.
Mary Anne Hobbs is most certainly a prominent figure in the promotion of alternative music, and her radio show has moments of absolute genius, but i can't help but find her slightly irritating. Whether its her voice, which is, lets be honest, more suited to a M&S food add, or her weird obsetion with PVC trouser, I don't know. In all fairness though, massive credit goes to her for being the corporate face of the darker side of dance, and holding that title well. And also for pushing many an unsung producer or MC, check her Youtube channel for many more videos of this ilk.
