Harmony & Xtreme - Wicked & Bad

The term "Paki" rose to prominence in the 1960s, white britons threatened by the arrival of south asian migrants to the UK used the term as a violent slur. Physical violence would often occur throughout the 60s,70s, 80s and 90s and these attacks would often be termed as "Paki bashing." 

Despite this being a significant part of the experience of many from south asia when first arriving to Britain, its cultural legacy has never been fully captured or grasped by mainstream media, film or the arts in general. Any reference to "Paki bashing" is resigned to a footnote as seen in the film "This is England" told from a young white skinheads perspective.

Today, the term is still used widely as Islamaphobic rhetoric reinforces the idea of an "extremist," child grooming Muslim being someone brown skinned and bearded. 

The purpose of the panel is to chart the terms historical origins and its usage today and examine the ways in which it has changed. After the panel we hope to have a session of questions, comments & discussion. 

The panel was as follows:
Coco Khan (Culture Editor at Complex UK)
Suresh Grover (Director of The Monitoring Group)
Amit Singh (Co-Founder of Consented)
Ash Sarkar (Novara Media)

About the release:

Deep Jungle finally makes its return from dormancy with the first in a series of vinyl releases that will be showcasing some of the 90's long lost treasures. This first release back sees two unreleased mid nineties gems from none other than the mighty Dillinja!! Both tracks are sourced from the original DAT tapes and they have been mastered by the grand master Simon @ The Exchange, a true mastering wizard and someone who has engineered some of the most respected releases to date.

The AA side features the 1995 dance floor killa "Humanity". This one's been making it's way around the dance floors on a select few dubplates for some time now, about 22 years to be precise. Finally unleashed from the vault for all the heads out there.

We will keep you up to date as much as possible on our facebook page and on here. 

The preview clips are 128 Mp3s converted to WAV.

A big thanks to everyone supporting Jungle and Drum & Bas

AA. Dillinja - Humanity (MASTERED) 128 CLIP

We're back with the next release! This time, we bring you two more long lost treasures of the nineties, specifically from 1993. On this EP, we welcome the one and only Adam F back to the label, with an unreleased gem featured alongside a rare track which originally appeared on vinyl back in 93.

The AA side, “Rushin”, is a previously unreleased tune which was recently discovered on DAT. Despite being one of Adam's earliest tracks, "Rushin" features choice melodic pads, a hard hitting drop, and the type of the sharp production that jungle fans have come to expect from Mr F over the years.

I've complained to the station and the BAI about it being an ad directed at a political end (as prohibited under the 2009 Broadcasting Act).

Transcript:

If you pay for sex, here’s what you’re buying into. Many women, and girls, are being brought to Ireland to work as prostitutes against their will. No matter how you try to convince yourself, the sex is never consensual. She is being forced.

Prositutes suffer extreme physical, sexual and psychological harm. The only solution is to penalise people who buy sex, and decriminalise those who are forced to sell themselves.

End sex trafficking now. Visit TurnOffTheRedLight.ie to see what you can do.
