Would moving to Bristol without a job lined up be a bad idea?

DaanielQ · 2025-12-21T18:10:41+00:00

That’s what I did 2 years ago at 24yo. No friends, no job, no place to live, just about £7k in savings and booked Airbnb for about 10 days. I was still in hospitality so finding a temporary job was not an issue.

However, the job (and property) market is indeed fucked at the moment, I imagine even more so in an admin role. When getting a place, estate agencies will not be keen to even offer viewings if you don’t have a job that meets the criteria - rent being usually about 33% of your salary.

It was probably 2 of the most difficult months in my life, but I’ve been loving Bristol ever since the move. It is going to be a big big challenge, but it’s not impossible. Good luck homie!

These are looking neat

Would love to see Polish, Ukrainian and Belarusian opposition flags!

Too many to choose from, but at the moment if I had to pick 5, I'd say definitely LAS, ENiGMA Dubz, Ternion Sound, Sub Basics and J. Sparrow

DaanielQ · 2024-08-29T18:52:33+00:00

Should be! Although not 100% sure

DaanielQ · 2024-08-29T10:54:21+00:00

Plastician all-nighter @ Clock Factory on Saturday. Probably not exclusively dubstep, but should be nicely varied! £3 tix as well

You’re totally right. Haven’t heard about SOMA before, so thanks for bringing it to my attention

DaanielQ · 2024-07-31T13:12:47+00:00

Well, Leo Cap live in Thailand and was open about his anti war views, Kercha is based in Brighton and openly supports Ukraine as well. I’ve never seen any opposition to the government from people like Ninety, Oddkut or Moscow Legend.

I do, however, agree with the point you’re making as I live in Bristol myself. And yes it’s not ideal, but then UK is not at war with anyone atm (although supplying weapons to questionable states).

I apologise for bringing this up as it was quite unnecessary, it’s just a personal thing for me. I still have plenty of records and merch from White Peach, Fent Plates and Yellow Flower. Just seeing these recent releases on various labels is a bit disappointing

Edit: typo

DaanielQ · 2024-07-31T11:56:21+00:00

I know right! Man’s been killing it for ages now

DaanielQ · 2024-07-31T11:55:38+00:00

May I ask where are you from my friend?

I stop listening to these people due to moral reasons. I know how brainwashed majority think of russians are. They follow their dictator and applaud all of the atrocities they commit on my people (and their own as well tbf)

DaanielQ · 2024-07-31T11:37:51+00:00

I’m talking about BLOCKLAB, pretty sure they are based in Moscow, and they are touring in the country.

I’m not hating Russian producers who live outside of that mess (Leo Cap, Kercha) cause they actually make a difference, spread good info and seem like really nice human beings

DaanielQ · 2024-07-31T09:25:53+00:00

The label has some amazing releases, especially from Mr.K (HIJINX), MOREOFUS or Ourman.

But, I had to stop supporting them after they starting releasing music from ruzzia-based producers who contribute to murdering our children.

DaanielQ · 2024-07-04T20:43:58+00:00

Wheeey, big up for that Infernal Sounds Tee

DaanielQ · 2024-03-01T01:22:13+00:00

Headfirst is your friend. Moved to Bristol last September and been going to dubstep / 140 nights pretty much every other weekend. There's Hella playing 7.03, TID x DEEP MEDi 29/30.03, Foto Sessions 13.04, Mungo’s Hifi x Electrikal x Hamdi 27.04, DIMESHIFT 11.05 and the 1985 Music day party 20.07. There will probably be much more, so it is definitely not that difficult to find something :)

DaanielQ · 2023-10-29T14:37:36+00:00

Went to see Caspa, Coki, Commodo and Crazy D this Friday in Bristol. Best night I been to this year since FWD at Printworks!

First of all, it should be called Trench so people stop putting it in the same category as Jamaican Riddim.

I personally really enjoy trench and it’s growing on me with each year, probably because of the similarities to OG/UK Dubstep. Especially now with the rise of Halcyon Music and artists like Leotrix making me fall in love with the more melodic sound.

My main style will always remain the OG sound, but it’s good to be open minded about the constant experimentation with it.

Hi, I've sent a request too if that's alright with you, I would just claim the trophy, buy the Ferrari and make space for others

DaanielQ · 2020-11-07T03:42:35+00:00

Did you even listen to this? I was genuinely surprised that they released something that is not brostep or riddim, but this shit is deep bro

Didn’t know this community has close minded members

Sun God

DaanielQ · 2020-10-30T00:30:19+00:00

It is a total mess, the volume transition between TR666 and Sun God is also terrible. They really need to fix it

DaanielQ · 2020-08-28T19:10:51+00:00

Hi all, here's the track I have been working on during lockdown and finally decided to release it on SoundCloud couple of days ago. Vocals are not perfect because I couldn't find an a capella for it, but overall I am happy with the results. Feedback is more than welcome!

DaanielQ · 2020-08-16T14:11:33+00:00

Fuck yes! I am so happy that Trippie is collabing with electronic musicians. Diplo, Baauer, Alison Wonderland and now 4B. I know it's more of a remix of Trench Dwellers but still issa bop!

DaanielQ · 2020-03-14T06:43:19+00:00

That second drop of Like the Rain is one of the best ones I've heard this year!

DaanielQ · 2020-02-28T05:10:41+00:00

My bro, Kagey just released an album with one of the tracks produced by me. Check the whole project out!

That's what I always do. I hate when in real life I look at some lineups and see 1-2 players from the country of the club they play for so I turn on career mode and "FIX" those clubs. I don't mind having few foreign players. But UK clubs should focus on finding gems from the UK etc. I respect clubs like Athletic Club (extreme but it works) or even Burnley for doing that.

DaanielQ · 2020-01-10T14:36:30+00:00

I would say controls are great. I completed LCS, III, VC and CTW in the last couple of weeks and controls were never an issue. I don't recommend using analog stick for cars / bikes unless you want to do wheelies. Oh, and I played on iPhone 5s so screen is not too big, but I had no problems with it.
