I suppose quite a few of you are gonna be sorta wondering what the hells going on and who the hell we are
, em, but um, we're called
Fingathing
and we're from Manchester.
My name's Peter Parker
and
I play, like, one turntable
, and this dude over here is
Sneaky
, and
he plays the double bass
. And basically that's it.
That's how we make
our
music

Perhaps you were there in 1991 when someone spun
We Are i.e.
for the first time. Maybe you were a suburban rebel in the mid 1990s, listening to
British pirate radio
and
taping the broadcasts
. Or you kept it legit and heard
Fabio
and
Grooverider
on
Kiss FM
or
BBC Radio 1
. Perhaps you only caught wind of it when
Goldie was on BBC's Maestro
(
prev
). You might spend your time figuring out
which breaks
were
used
, from the well-known
Amen, Brother
sample (
prev
), to
Both Eyes Open
by
Lucille Brown & Billy Clark
. Or maybe you don't know the difference between
clownstep
and
liquid funk
, but it sounds like something you want to know more about. Step inside, junglist, and embrace the bass.
