  • Nextmen.COM

  • Discogs - The Nextmen


  • Lush LP out the turn of the new millenium. Just hunting around now n it seems the 75Ark release is more widespread than it's Scenario Records UK Press cousin. Even saw a Scenario Press online for £48 which brought a smile to my face, but can't be right surely. Rap & Soul's got the 75 ARK version for £13. Peace.

    Tracks to check for'll be likes of Buck Foolish with Ken Boogs, Sex Lies n Vids, and the self titled track. I'll try n get the insts up at some point this year perhaps.

    Ricky Gervais Podcasts - Gold Collection

    This is the entire archive of podcasts documenting Karl Pilkingtons rise to power. Including the original XFM Radio Shows minus the music.

    Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

    The guys no stranger to the Hip Hop and Electro scene himself. Sightings were reported in the late 80s of a group of would-be body poppers 'doing their thing' on Walter Wilsons boxes outside Woolworths, one of whom had a massive strangely shaped head. Sit back, get to know the man, and be amazed at how crap the most popular bloke in the UK is. This is over 16 hours of off the cuff hillarity. Featuring insights into his Aunty Nora's split tennis ball, talking yoghurts of the future, indecent exposure at the kitchen sink and the human evolutionary chain - Cell, fish, mermaid, monkey, man.

    You also need to be heading over to his site and opening your iTunes to subscribe to the free video podcasts. Theres no set routine for them. They get released as and when they feel like putting them up, but theres seven available for download now. Go here :

    While the Gold rar is uploading I found these you might be interested in also :

  • Audible Interview with Pilkington K

  • The Telegraph has an 11 page interview with Ricky Gervais' co-podcaster and idiot savant Karl Pilkington. The interview is primarily to plug his new book. There are three long extracts from the book with illustrations (Karl is clearly a talented cartoonist), but there is also plenty of the usual Pilkingtonian wisdom. For example: apparently Karl enjoys visiting Regent's Park near his flat, because you can see the tops of the giraffes in London Zoo for free.

  • It's big. But well worth the space on your HD. Hour after hour of hillarity at Karl's expence.


    "The question is, does he really live in a cartoon world, or in a comic conceit of his own making? He describes himself as 'just a bloke from Manchester'. Whatever the answer, he doesn't seem to care what other people think, and that is disarming. As Ricky Gervais has said, he is either one of the greatest comedy talents of his generation, or a partially shaved monkey with a head shaped like a fuckin orange, that can talk."

    Parlour Talk - Padlocked Tonic - 1999



    Yeah big drop today. This arguably, is one of the most played LPs in this archive up here so I've a great fondness for these characters. Dropped in 99.. fucka... seems like just yesterday. But some of the tracks on this have been playlist heavyweights in the ten years I've been vibing this. Parlour Talk consisted of Sir Beans (by appointment to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II) and Scoutleader Deed, and they done put together something proppa special for yours listening pleasures last century. Seen, something I love about British Hip Hop, is that it can manifest in so many guises, absolute comedy jokes lyrically sometimes, whilst at the same time remaining deadly serious and knowledge-ridden. Infinately more-so than it's other global counterparts. And this isn't any kind of egotistical vibe don't get that twisted. It's just an observation with regard character and how well the nations sense of humour manifests through hip hop. And make sure n make no bones, this LPs stinking to high heavens of individuality and character.

    I had hoped to get my promo on for Sir Beans latest EP, but it's not out till Feb. Rest in the knowledge that you'll be notified of it's release here immediately, but apart from that the blokes got a couple of 12"s out the past that you need in your posession you'll see by checking the Sir Beans Discogs link. I'm bout to quiz Deed on whats new, so I'll be promoting whats coming out his lab here in the coming weeks / months...... Tracks to check for are likes of 'Vacation' 'The Price You Paid' 'Gutted' 'Able Semen' 'Another Price To Pay' and 'C'mon Down'... This CD version has a hidden skit a few mins past the final track, However the LP version has 2 blinding Sir Beans table skits which aren't on the CD, that make it an essential crate addition.

    Here's an interview, that was done in 2000 shortly after the LP dropped which is required reading to recognise who
    you're listening to :

  • There's a sample track in the MP3 player, open it up n sift it out if you're unsure.

  • Long time since I've listened to this to be honest. But it's taken me 6 years to get the MP3s. Good pair of vinyl discs to have though, due to the usual Spinna high standard production-wise of COURSE. Theres even an Eminem track on here thats quite fresh, who usually I can't stand. But emmm off memory tracks to check for are the 'Who You Be' Inst, 'Grooveamungus' and 'Rock' ring bells for quality, like i say it's been a long time since i bumped this (I'll no doubt throw something in the MP3 player). But nice mix of instrumentals n vocal tracks if you don't know. Definately needed.

    He's also got a new album just out called 'Intergalactic Soul' which would be a shrude move to check for no doubt.
