  24HourPartyPeople.com - MC Tunes
Tunes was the star of the show, giving the rest of the country an idea about what made Madchester Mad.
Tunes was a talented rapper and made two forays into the Top Forty alongside 808 State.
I guess most people thought Tunes was a five minutes of fame fella, but he went onto record as the Dust Junkies and made some quality tunes.

Tunes were in these cases handed down by memory, except when printed in separate books either for the accompanying organ or for voices.

MC: But his new album 'Real Gone' is probably his most extreme ever.
MC: Several of the songs are about war, religion and what's happening in America now.

 TrouserPress.com :: 808 State
In 1990, the band produced and wrote the music for The North at Its Heights, an album by Manchester rapper MC Tunes.
While most of the numbers display 808's characteristic drollery, many of Tunes' raps are serious indeed, depicting Mancunian street violence, junkiedom and other social ills with surprising conviction and credibility.
The contrast yields a provocative sense of alienation; on lighter numbers like "Tunes Splits the Atom," the effect is more familiarly amusing.

Tunes like "I gotta get thru this", "Do u really like it", "21 Seconds" were really popular cos they were so commercial.
Maybe them are good tunes but it's not Garage and anyone who says sound is changing and developing with the times have forgotten the roots.

Tunes are presented both in the book and on the recording in sets, rather than individually.
Each tune is lovingly and throughly described both musically and historically, and before each transcription are practice passages breaking down some of the technically or rhythmically challenging sections of the tune.
The final tune, written by Rideout, is a eulogy to the Scots women who have passed on the legacy of hard work and pride in their own traditions; a legacy which has continued to nourish the human spirit.

Now the MC's back in Oakland, doing measly DJ gigs around town, trying to get someone, anyone, to put out his tunes.

 Acoustic guitar Tablature (Tab) & Midi - Downloads Page
Tablature is an excellent way in which to put guitar compositions and arrangements onto paper for learning and teaching purposes, and also to enable you to remember tunes from one year to the next, a definite factor if a tune isn't played for a year or two.
Using normal/conventional music notation, every time you change the tuning on your guitar you then have to re-learn the notes on the fingerboard to be able to find them when they are being read from the dots on the printed page.
Tablature is no different no matter what the tuning; it still shows the fret numbers which show where you are to put your fingers of your fretting hand (left for most of us!) onto the guitar neck/fretboard.

 RA: Resident Advisor - DJ Format - If You Can't Join Em, Beat Em - CD Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Format is notorious for his fascination with classic breakbeats utilising 70's funk basslines, uptempo b-boy breaks, turntablist scratches and comedic samples all held together with an element of having fun and rocking the dancefloor.
As fans of J5 have come to expect the two MC's deliver feel good lyrics, harmonising vocals as Format lays down a funky guitar-and-bassline-in-unison riff with well placed cuts and scratches for good measure.
Black Cloud is a much more laidback effort and harks back to slow rocking 70s rock tunes featuring a moody vocal sample, catchy bassline riff, soundtrack style strings and a funky guitar lick heavy on the wah-wah.

Their conflicted relationship with hip hop (they wanted to be a UK Public Enemy, but thought the latter were sonically staid) was surpassed only by their conflicted relationship with rave (they deplored drug culture and declared “we’re not a rave group, we’re a fast hip hop group”).
The MC's role in hardcore/jungle/earlygarage was paradoxically crucial-yet-menial: he (invariably a he) functioned as a membrane between the expressive/social and the rhythmic/technological, vocalizing the intensities of machine-rhythm and in the process more or less transforming himself into a supplement to “the drum kit”.
The tune was an example of the UK fast-style reggae sound, which Dick Hebdige describes as “reggae’s answer to rap”, as spearheaded by the Saxon International Sound System and its MCs like Tipper Irie, Asher Senator, Lady Di, and Philip Levi.

 Discussion - Nov 15 1997 to Feb 9 1998
BTW, the first (and worst) appearance of MC on a movie soundtrack that I know of was his version of a dreadful tune called "Rock On" (written, I believe, by Giorgio Moroder) which appeared on (drumroll, please) the Superman III soundtrack.
MC is apparently a big Rick fan, and I've always thought of MC as Ricky and James Burton wrapped up in one.
Saw MC perform "I Fought the Law" in East Lansing, MI a few years back (it was shouted out from the audience as a request.) Robert and Graham Maby were playing with MC (my God, what a trio that was) and their rendition was fantastic.

Home of the Brave, ostensibly a selection of tunes from the soundtrack of the eponymous Anderson performance movie, is less successful in maintaining that balance.
The somewhat sombre lyrical material tends to lack the surreal bite of her best work: the sentiment of "Statue of Liberty" and the melancholy imagery of "Washington Street" may be heartfelt but come across as nearly banal.
