The Rogue Element - Panic AttacksThe Rogue Element Chats to ilikemusic
Also, the first time I headlined at The End in the main room. That was the first club I went to when I moved to London as a very green, self-concious teenager. I consistently went there every week or every other week all through my early twenties, so actually getting to play there in the main room was amazing. Obviously I was absolutley terrified!
ILM: You spoke about how yourself and Tom are going to move away from the breaks. What do you think of breaks at the moment?
Ben: The problem is that it isn't just breakbeat, myself and Tom are trying to avoid being pigeon holed in any kind of genre. It is hard to kind of identify the problems without sounding disparaging to the scene as a whole, which isn't the intent. What I think has happened in terms of breakbeat is that what gets categorised as breakbeat has become quite a narrow set of parameters. It has a certain kind of sound, a certain kind of feel, it does certain things. As a result there is a lot of very exciting stuff that isn't really breaks, techno, or house and it just gets called something else. So it doesn't get picked up. What then happens is that breakbeat gets a reputation for just being so. Which isn't necessarily true. It will come back round again, definitely, the same sort of thing happened with techno.

Jun: ilikemusic because... music can convey a mood, enhance a mood or change a mood. Music can be used to inspire and the artform is simple yet complicated. It's fun to listen to and even more fun to create and perform. It speaks when just a simple word can't. It's a blessing!!
