In February, Just Jam's event at The Barbican was cancelled at the last minute. It was an event that seemed to be yet another victim of the London authorities now notorious risk assessment procedure, Form 696.

**A Noisey Film** **Jamie Adenuga**, otherwise known as **JME**, hosts this much needed investigation behind the relationship between British Police and Grime music. This documentary is important in many ways. It is a bookmark to return to when discussing the history of Police attitude. And it's also important because England's prized music genre does not have the documented history that it deserves. We don't have enough young filmmakers interested in making documentaries on Grime, and we don't have older filmmakers who lived through the rise of it that want to make it. It's left to be put on the shoulders of the musicians like JME. Luckily I don't think this could've had a better host, but JME still acts as a host here. At least one major Grime documentary needs to be made. Not just to be shown on BBC, or left on a YouTube channel, but to be shown on a Cinema screen in a cinematic experience. Whether it takes the music artists to pick up a camera and record their history to do this or inspire filmmakers to shine a light on this under-looked piece of British music history. I think it's vital we don't forget about Grime.

  • Inner Worlds, Outer Worlds
    Inner Worlds, Outer Worlds
    2012-12-19
    There is one vibratory field that connects all things. It has been called Akasha, Logos, the primordial OM, the music of the spheres, the Higgs field, dark energy, and a thousand other names throughout history. The vibratory field is at the root of all true spiritual experience and scientific investigation. It is the same field of energy that saints, Buddhas, yogis, mystics, priests, shamans and seers, have observed by looking within themselves. Many of history's monumental thinkers, such a Pythagoras, Kepler, Leonardo DaVinci, Tesla, and Einstein, have come to the threshold of this great mystery. It is the common link between all religions, all sciences, and the link between our inner worlds and our outer worlds.
