South London tube map

The East London line extension is set to hit South London in around 5 years, meaning more dots on the Southern part of the tubemap (and making travel to Plastic People a helluva lot easier!). Designer David Linton of www.colourcountry.net has already done a South London tube map- "rotating the map so that South London gets most of the stations." I love it.

Anyone who know's me well enuff knows that this gyal (nerd at heart) can't get enuff of webs and diagrams. This particular one that I've blog pinched off Blackdown (bless-up guy!) has got me all excited. Penned by ex-Ammunition founder Neil Joliffe, it explains the history of Garage and how it evolved into Grime, Dubstep and Broken Beat.

It's particularly poignant for me at the moment. I've spent a large portion of this week email battling the Grime loving photo editor of a very well known magazine who insists that Dubstep is 'a pointless sub-culture.' Regardless of our opposing opinions, the man in question is a damn good photographer so respect to him for his images. I just wish he'd get off his high horse and realise that Grime and Dubstep although different are undoubtedly share the same musical ancestory and are equally significant.
