    It’s been very quiet on this side of the Atlantic since my last update in December leaving me with very little to report over the cold winter months. But spring is upon us, the sun is doing its best to shine and details of gigs in the UK are beginning to surface.   MC Lars MC Lars UK tour dates Making his annual jaunt to the U.K. Lars will once again be playing all three dates at The Slam D...

    Word to the nerd!  It’s looking increasingly likely that this column is going to wind up being monthly as other commitments both online and off are prohibiting me from taking the time out for the fun side projects at the moment. Should time become more readily available then I’ll revert to the weekly updates.   Bon Voyage, Ghettosocks   As previously posted in the news section, ...

    Word to the nerd! This week I take a look at two nerdy, British musicians most Nerdcore Now readers will be familiar with and their differing flirtations with being on telly.   Milk-Plus – Tuning Out   MC Milk-Plus was once asked to appear on the BBC Three television show, ‘Russel Howard’s Good News’. The show is a light-hearted look at news and current affairs mixed ...

    Word from the nerd and news of an epic fail begins our weekly adventure into Nerdcore in the U.K. Failure to launch I began this week on a mission. I had four urgent purchases to make, one of those being tickets to see The Herbaliser play at the HMV Forum, here in London with Ghettosocks providing vocals for their set. A simple task I thought… until I realised the show had been two days earlier an...

    Word from the nerd and apologies for a few week’s absence. I’ll shy away from details but it’s been a sombre time in The Unheard Household of late. Ghettosocks in the U.K. Cheering me up no end though is news that Canada’s very own Ghettosocks is here in the U.K. right now! Alongside London based Hip-Hop/Rare-Groove/Jazz/Funk duo, ‘The Herbaliser‘, Ghettosocks will be...

  • Nerdcore: UK Watching America, Lazy Habits and Too Many T’s

    September 28, 2012

    Throughout my life I’ve been guilty of always looking to America as my primary source of music. I’m not alone, the global music market is heavily dominated by U.S. artists and bands throughout almost every genre. It wasn’t always like this, in the sixties and seventies it was the Brits that ruled the airwaves and playlists of radio stations throughout the world. When I first discovered...

    Steal This Gig was a collaborative effort between the Pirate Party UK and Scrub Club Records. With Madhatter (Head of Scrub Club) due to speak at the PP:UK conference on the Sunday the gig was intended to be a fund raiser for the pirates where the audience were asked to ‘Name Your Price’ in a ‘Bandcamp’ style, fitting with their ethics. Madhatter and MC Wreckshin flew over from t...

    I’ve been a fan of Milk-Plus for a number of years now, enjoying his solo releases as well as his involvement with the ever evolving collective that make up Torrentz. I have his music on ‘mixtape’ CDs in my car and we’ve spoken online several times. We even attended the same MC Frontalot gig once without ever saying hi. Strange then that it was only recently that we discovered we...
