He was there at the dawn of the '90s when drum'n'bass was unruffled hard-core techno, honing his talents as a DJ. Then, in 1992, just as drum'n'bass was beginning to blossom, he formed Ram Records with Ant Miles. The label quickly became unrivalled of drum'n'bass' driving forces, cathartic a overplus of 12" EPs featuring many of the genre's preeminent producers. As part of the duette Origin Unknown with Miles, Andy C. produced one of Ram's many turning point tracks, "Vale of the Shadows." Released in 1993, the cat track apace became non only an anthem just too a classic, being remixed and re-released repeatedly. Later in the '90s came more than Origin Unknown tracks; in addition, Andy C. joined forces with Shimon and Miles to form the much-celebrated supergroup Ram Trilogy. Throughout all his success, the islet of Man known to only a select few as Andy Clarke managed to remain for the nearly division anonymous and, as a result, substantially mythic -- an iconic figure of speech within the insular and manic U.K. drum'n'bass scene -- known to even his fans as only Andy C. |

NEW YORK -- One Capitol artist succeeds the other atop the Billboard Hot 100 this week, with Katy Perry's "I Kissed a Girl" (2-1) trumping Coldplay's "Viva La Vida" (1-6). The last pair of titles from the label to reign consecutively on the Hot 100 was Sylvers' "Boogie Fever" and Wings "Silly Love Songs" in May 1976.
"I Kissed a Girl" also becomes the 1,000th No. 1 of the rock era, which began with Bill Haley and His Comet's "Rock Around the Clock" in 1955. The first 36 of those on the Best Sellers list, and the remainder on the Billboard Hot 100.

Chris Brown's "Forever" is also on the move from No. 8 to No. 7, while Plies' "Push It Baby Part 2" featuring Ne-Yo moves from No. 11 to No. 8.
The Pussycat Dolls' "When I Grow Up" bolts from No. 18 to No. 9, and Miley Cyrus' "7 Things" explodes from No. 70 to No. 10, tying her career-best mark on the tally. The track sold 130,000 digital downloads last week.
"This Is Me," Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas' duet from "Camp Rock," is the top debut on the Hot 100 at No. 11, one of four songs from the soundtrack new to the chart this week. Also new are Rihanna's "Disturbia" at No. 18 and Flo Rida's "In the Ayer" featuring will.i.am at No. 38.
Keyshia Cole's "Heaven Sent" begins a third week at No. 1 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, where Solange Knowles' "I Decided" is the top debut at No. 44. On Hot Country Songs, Brad Paisley's "Better As a Memory" is No. 1 for a second frame.
Billboard's rock charts are static once again at the top; Weezer is No. 1 on Modern Rock with "Pork & Beans" for an eighth week, and Disturbed's "Inside the Fire" tops Mainstream Rock for a eighth as well.

A world-wide fusion duet which dextrously combined old World music and sound with western hemisphere position and technology, Loop Guru in the main comprised bassist/guitarist Salman Gita (born Sam Dodson) and coder Jamuud (aka Dave Muddyman), both longtime staples of the London clubhouse aspect. After meeting in 1980 at the founding of next Trans-Global Underground fellow member Alex Kasiek, the two hands frequently plant themselves performing on the same bill, discovering a mutual dissatisfaction with the restraints of rock music piece forging a uncouth chemical bond from their shared stake in tape loops and worldbeat rhythms. Gita and Jamuud before long began experimenting with a admixture desk, which they plugged into a series of tape recorders, DAT machines, VCRs, and so away; afterwards performing a figure of instruments as concurrent escort, they at long last created sound collages from what resulted, incorporating samplers and computers into the immix as technology progressed.
Under the name Loop Guru, they debuted in 1992 with "Mrabet" -- a nod to the Moroccan writer and Paul Bowles confidante -- which took Single of the Week honors in the NME (an awarding likewise handed to the followup, "Paradigm Shuffle"). With Iranian-born vocaliser Sussan Deyhim, they next issued the Sus-san-tics EP, a multiple-remix throw, followed in 1994 by their full-length debut, Duniya. In 1995 Loop Guru sign-language to the North-South label, entrance into a alone concord to firing both a "bug out record" and a more than experimental mold on an annual ground. The first fruits of the apportion arrived in the course of Amrita, a more than established campaign, and The Third Chamber, an hourlong ambient "single"; in 1996, they issued the third volume in their Catalog of Desires ambient series (the start 2 were uncommitted only at concerts), along with Moksha, a appeal of roger Sessions from the John Peel show. Closed circuit Bites Dog followed in 1997. In 1999, the finish Catalog of Desires was reworked and remixed into a single-disc spill, The Fountains of Paradise. After a long layoff from the recording studio, the brace returned with Bathtime with Loop Guru in 2003 for a new label: Cleopatra. Elderberry Shiftglass followed in 2006.

Pammie protests with Peta over chickens
Pamela Anderson has written to fast food chain KFC over the treatment of chickens on their supplier’s farms.
The former Baywatch actress - who is no stranger to campaigning against cruelty to animals - teamed up with Peta (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) Europe while she is in London, England, to send the letter to Martin Shuker, the Managing Director of KFC in the UK.
In the letter, Pammie - who has been working with Peta against KFC for the last three years - wrote: “My friends at PETA Europe and I have a bone to pick with KFC over the treatment of birds on your supplier’s factory farms.
“Chickens are bred to grow so quickly they can barely walk and they stew in their own waste for their entire lives. This is Colonel Sanders’ real ‘secret recipe’. At slaughter, these poor animals are still conscious when they are snapped into metal shackles, often with broken legs.
“They are shocked in an electrified water bath and many are still fully conscious when their necks are sliced open. Some are even burned to death in the scalding tank for feather removal.”
Pammie also referred to how KFC in Canada have changed their policies since receiving her letter of complaint and she has asked the British branches to consider doing the same.
She continued: “Last week, KFC Canada agreed to improve living and dying conditions for chickens and to add a vegetarian faux chicken to their menu in all their biggest markets, representing about eighty per cent of Canadian KFCs. Won't you follow their lead?
“Until I hear from Peta that you will be agreeing to make changes similar to those agreed to by KFC Canada - and recommended by KFC's own animal welfare advisors - I will be boycotting KFC and encouraging everyone to watch my video expose at KentuckyFriedCruelty.com.”
Pamela is currently in London to co-host talk show The Sunday Night Project with Justin Lee Collins and Alan Carr.

Detroit's Sherard Ingram was one of the few Americans (along with DJ Shadow and Money Mark) to record for Britain's illustrious trip-hop judge Mo' Wax. Initially a vehicle for earthy downtempo productions, Urban Tribe debuted on Carl Craig's Retroactive and Planet E labels by contributing to the Equinox: Chapter One (1990) and Elements of and Experiments with Sound (1992) compilations. After sign language on to Mo' Wax, he released the EP East in later 1996. Ingram's debut album, 1998's The Collapse of Modern Culture, expanded the lineup to include engineers Craig and Anthony "Shake" Shakir, asset Kenny Dixon, Jr. (aka Moodymann). Four long time later on, Ingram resumed product work, offset by recording as Mystic Tribe for the Netherlands' Clone label and so by positioning with Rephlex. This association birthed two full-lengths: 2006's Authorised Clinical Trials and 2007's Satisfactory Side Effects, both of which were finisher to Drexciya's hard-edged, electro-inspired early releases than early Urban Tribe. It's no mere happenstance that Ingram has too operated as "Drexciyan DJ Stingray."
Ashley Tisdale: Smells like teen Rickroll
Perez Hilton found a YouTube video with that contains the complete audio of Ashley Tisdale doing a cover of Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up."
The Perez-linked video looks like it's unauthorized, but a post by Idolator has links to authorized excerpts. Turns out the song is a cut from Tisdale's new Disney album, "Degree Girl: OMG! Jams." As in, the album is an advertisement for deodorant. I don't know what Ashley thinks of being subliminally associated with sweat and body odor, but somehow I doubt she cares.
As for the song I am unable to call it terrible (disclosure: I like "Never Gonna" way more than I should after having listened to it 5,000 times when I was writing about it). I listened to the Tisdale version all the way through, and even noticed my foot moving several times. It might have just been twitching.
