	Roni Size - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The band - Size (compositions/programming), DJ Krust, Onallee (vocals), MC Dynamite and rapper Bahmadia (a former protégé of Gang Starr) - came together on Bristol's highly fertile and disparate club scene.

	Roni Size (December 2000)
		Today, Roni Size is pacing a small slab of sidewalk on 12th Street in New York’s East Village, hands in pockets, his studio tan looking uncomfortably burnished in the blazing sun of late August.
		Size: With the MPC, if I have a beat in my head, rather than sit there and program it, I can hit it and get exactly what’s in my head, and then I’ve got the basis of a groove — it’s just for kick, snares and hi-hats on the rolls.
		Size: I think on New Forms, a lot of people heard the jazz, and they didn’t pick up on the other elements we were tapping into.

		Size’s approach to albums has been in many ways thematic, and since winning, he expresses feeling a sense of restlessness and discontentment with the way his records are received, doing his best to remember his “you can’t please all the people all of the time” mantra.
		The well-spoken and affable Size pauses for a few seconds (which feel like minutes because he’s been on a roll for a good half-hour without being asked a question), and it’s clear that he’s a bit flustered, maybe a little stressed, and definitely at odds with others’ interpretations of his successes and failures.
		Most noticeably, though, Size is attempting a rough balancing act with this new releases, shifting between satisfying his nostalgic need to pay respects and his sixth sense to keep things pushing forward.

	Touchin Down
		Roni Size, with his long dreads tied back and his sunglasses dark enough to cover his eyes, puts his Macintosh laptop between the two turntables and opens it.
		Roni Size was touching everyone in the audience with his music, like a laser firing uncontrollably and hitting everything and anything in its path.
		I finally got to see Roni Size live, and it truly was a spiritual experience for me. I have seen hundreds of concerts throughout my life, ranging a span of musical genres, but drum and bass is the only genre that can touch my soul through its sound alone.

		By far the funkiest of the numerous high-profile drum 'n' bass albums released in 1997, NEW FORMS, by Bristol, UK DJ Roni Size and his crew Reprazent, is one of the few that sounds as if it has a chance to appeal to the uninitiated.
		Size and his partners apply the blueprint to song forms instead of soundscape/groove collages, and they don't chintz on textures, infusing the digital whole with numerous analogue sounds.

		Roni Size's 1997 Mercury win for Nu Forms was the highpoint and the beginning of the end for drum'n'bass.
		Few walked that way again; Size's star has waned and for the first time since he's working - ahem - "without the pressure of a major label".
		Lyrics insist a superannuated production team "come from the ghetto"; basslines sound like depth charges, drum machines race against each other and, in my case, were augmented by the sound of a distressed elderly neighbour banging on the wall.

		And while you may think Roni has the advantage of cutting some sickass drum n bass, is he capable of combining a rice and vermicelli mix in a large pan with two tablespoons (30ml) margarine or butter, sauteing it and stirring frequently until the vermicelli is golden brown?
		Roni Size used his share of the loot to buy a record studio; Rice-a-roni spent his on a new typeface and a catchy jingle.

		In 1997 Roni Size / Reprazent released what can arguably be considered the greatest drum & bass album of all time: New Forms.
		Roni Size and Reprazent released In the Mode, their follow-up to New Forms, in 2000.
		If there was any doubt that Size could still keep up with those whippersnappers over on the Breakbeat Science label, these tracks, along with the punishing "On and On" and the techno-influenced "The Streets", should prove that Size is still capable of leading the pack.

		Size certainly won't be getting any thanks from me until he a) makes another good album, or b) hands me an Advil.
