STOKE ON TRENT STREET CULTURE

STOKE ON TRENT

UNDERGROUND

Hi and welcome to a site that is dedicated to Stoke-On-Trent Street Culture, and everything good in the surrounding area.

I am a rapper and  former professional B-Boy from Stoke-on-Trent , which is a small group of six towns that form what is known as the "potteries". The site will feature all the best in local talent from the area,  and everyone who helps to make Stoke on Trent a great place to live in.

I have compiled this site to further push the street culture of Staffordshire to the limits. I love Hip Hop and most music and persuits that are not solely money orientated. I also love all live music and the scene will be covered in depth within the pages including all aspects of  Electronic based music.

There will be articles and  photographs of all street culture.. including: Parkour, B-boys, Graffiti, Hip Hop, Skateboarding, Tricking, Capoeira, the Rave scene and so forth.

There are links to all the best urban projects in the area that are tackling the negative stereo-types, and helping the young people in Stoke on Trent to fullfill their ambitions in music, education and training.This includes:

• Street Dancing and Body popping with URBAN CIRCUS
• Music production workshops and engineering from UNITY
• Underground hip hop from The Goon Squad
• Council run projects and funding HERE
• Local entertainment Links

 

There will also be articles on the faces that made the Stoke music scene what it is today. The people I remember and became friends with like; Trevor M,  Daz Willot, and  Daniel Spencer, and the stars of tomorrow from the underground music scene. This will include links to legal downloads.

The history of clubbing in Staffordshire, with memories from the Northern Soul scene and The Torch and the more recent clubs like The Place, Entropy and Shelleys.
