garage

UK garage, abbreviated as UKG, is a genre of electronic dance music which originated in England in the early to mid-1990s. The genre was most clearly inspired by garage house, but also incorporates elements from dance-pop, R&B, and jungle. It is defined by percussive, shuffled rhythms with syncopated hi-hats, cymbals, and snares, and may include either 4/4 house kick patterns or more irregular "2-step" rhythms. Garage tracks also commonly feature 'chopped up' and time-stretched or pitch-shifted vocal samples complementing the underlying rhythmic structure at a tempo usually around 130 BPM.
UK garage encompassed subgenres such as speed garage and 2-step, and was then largely subsumed into other styles of music and production in the mid-2000s, including bassline, grime, and dubstep. The decline of UK garage during the mid-2000s saw the birth of UK funky, which is closely related.

    Do you garage your Cyberster? How large is the garage?

    Hey all. Got my Cyberster home and discovered that although in theory it fits the garage, in reality it’s far too tight to get it in without worrying that I’m going to damage something. I’m considering getting a company out to replace the garage door (from one that goes between the brickwork...

    Heat and smoke alarms

    I charge and store my car in my (attached) garage. I have always garaged my cars, but never really thought too much about the fire risk. Having done a bit of research, I ordered a heat alarm for the garage, together with a linked WiFi smoke alarm, which is indoors. If either alarm detects a...

    Storm damage

    Got up Friday morning to suspect that a small piece of masonry had been detached from the garage roof and fallen onto my MG4 Trophy - breaking the plastic cover on the nearside rear lights. I was less bothered about the small dent which may have been the result of out bin flying into it, since...

    Seriously tough vehicle!

    A short update on my own positive MG4 experience, just to offset some of the more irritating experiences reported in the forum... A few months back I managed to reverse our MG4 into a culvert (yes, really, really stupid!). The bottom of the car was wedged on a large rock, the offside rear...

    Advice on where to put a 7kW charger point

    We have two mgs mg4 and MGHS phev. Mg app allows you to set up a garage and place the cars in and swap between the two. However, we had the mg4 first and when I swap in the ap to the mghs it seems to carry the digital key for the mg4 into the MGHS garage and I cannot locate the mghs digital key...

    Installing panels on a garden room.

    My house ( mid terrace) roof has a dormer on one side (probably too weak for the ballast to hold down solar panels and difficult I think to assess so too much risk.of collapse) and three velux windows and a wrongly shaped / positioned gable on the other side. So the main roof is not really...

    Hi to all, my wife's MG4LR was called by our supplying garage for its yearly safety checks and to install an update to the internal computers. They had the car all day and all seemed OK.

    MG ZS EV heating system fault and poor dealer service

    MG ZS EV - Does using a non MG garage to fix my heating system invalidate the warranty? Heating system turns itself off after, variously 2 minutes, 5 or maybe 10 minutes. Turn it off, wait and then back on gives an extra couple of minutes before it goes off again. Dangerous in my view when it...
