Are you referring to before your break or after, because what he used to do in the late 90s was quite remarkable but it went from being something quite brilliant to wow-ow-a-rit-tit-tit-titty-bam-bam.
And whilst I'm in the mood: *strains voice (as if having a poo)* Transforming, transforming. Wvoom-kherh. Diddly-diddloo-ba.
Ahh! I see what you're saying now... So you feel MC Storm has simplified his vocal scratching?
Maybe the vocal scratching became a strain on his vocal chords? Maybe he prefers the more simplified approach? I'm sure he could rinse out in the way he used to if he tried.

My sentiments exactly. Nothing else in the genre comes close to the effort and thought put into Qwerkout

Yes, a long while ago he lost the ability to do it because his voice broke. It's highly doubtful he can do it like he used to but because it was his trademark he had to keep it going somehow, just it's nowhere near as good.

Unless it's something you don't agree with and then it's worth considering hey?.
Lol, well done for trying to call me out on that shocking display of hypocrisy. But no, my comment there is referring to the fact that you seem to never have anything positive to say about anything people are excited about.
Just read the rest of your post so maybe I'll expect to see a change :)
I speak positively about a lot of stuff but people just don't remember that

Ah! Well that's a shame. Still there's far more to him than just his vocal scratching. I actually quite like his simplified approach. It's like Eminem does it in a way. I do get what you're saying about how he used to do it though. He used to be here there and everywhere with it...
"Ah ooh wha daba ba eeh erh whadda whadda dabba babba bing bong" LOL! I had to have a go at writing it out after what you wrote, Mickey. It seemed like fun! :)

Listening to guys like Eksman and Stormin' on Dj Hype's Kiss Fm slot really makes you realise the massive gulf in talent between Hardcore and Drum & Bass MC's.

It's complete toss, off beat for most of the time, can't fit in all the words without it sounding like a garbled mess. 21 minutes is the absolute worst thing I've heard in a very long time
Wow! Sorry to get your back up arpz. I enjoyed it! So sue me. I don't see much difference to how he normally MCs... Maybe they had some timing issues during recording. Other than that I can't fault it.

Qwerkout was extremely good, i also highly rate all the album sessions mixes that DJ MoB and MC Enemy did, i dont know what production gear those 2 used but it just sounded so much fuller and more vibrant than pretty much anything else i have ever heard, the clarity and crispness of it all is pretty much second to none IMO.

Having just listened to the mix i can see what people mean about the timing not being great at certain points, but i do know that Carl bloody hates being in the studio, i remember him telling me a story a while back about how he swears either DS or Hixxy (cant remember which) were rolling their eyes at him while they were laying down a track haha, in all seriousness though, he is still the don on stage, he's got the prescence and crowd control that just makes it happen, what would you rather, someone who isnt on top form in a studio setting but absolutely tears it live, or someone who sounds crisp in the studio but only on a studio mix because they cant do it live? for me its the former.

If you don't like being in the studio and can't produce anything worth listening to, then don't go in the studio?

The MCin in this mix is an accurate reflection of his personality, utter gash. How he ever thought this was acceptable is beyond me.
If ush.net was still around the phone would be ringing off the hook.
