Most 'Sloane Friendly' type of music?

What type of music do you all reckon is most popular with the Okay Yah Set? whether they be the the braying blazer & chino, polo and drinks with wills & harry after brigade or the even more odious Anthropology at Edinburgh Uni studying, chillum smoking, dreads & poi and winter in Goa gang?

In edinburgh, which is fucking full of them, they are most evident in clubs which play R&B or trance clubs. Which is hardly surprising perhaps given the fact most of the sloans are from down south.

But I imagine it might be a bit different in London.

Just interested, likes. :)

You're out on the pull on the Fulham and KIng's Rds tonight? :D Bet you're going dancing/clubbing in those super-bright Rupert cords and a double cuff Ralph Lauren shirt with 'wacky' cufflinks. :D

*taxi*
 
there's a pub near where i work called the white horse that's widely known as the sloaney pony. it's fucking horrible.

But they do keep a very good cellar. I used to go for the beer and try to ignore most of the customers when I worked not far from there.
 
What type of music do you all reckon is most popular with the plebian underclass Set? whether they be the the screeching kappa and knock off bling bedecked, breezer and gregs pasty with Tiffanee and Chardonay after signing on or the even more odious greasy haired, leggings wearing, baby factories indiscriminately firing out more anti-social c*nt discharge, lambert smoking, classics & burberry cap and winter in Wetherspoons gang?

In Croydon, which is fucking full of them, they are most evident in on buses and on street corners playing god knows what sh*t on mobiles. Which is hardly surprising perhaps given the fact most of them are completely free of ambition and a total stranger to the concept of self-respect, self-improvement or anything other than watching shit television, eating junk food and breeding hordes of squawking feral juveniles

But I imagine it might be a bit different somewhere else.

Just interested, likes :);)

I've been tempted to whip out some Ornette Coleman on the 157 on more than one occasion and see how that went down. :)
 
The Sloaney type people I went to Uni with liked to get all 'grimey' at the weekends and slum it at the Drum and Base nights. Also minimal house was a popular one. I called them electro Rah's.

yea, you're right. they were all into drum & bass in edinburgh before R&B became as 'mainstream'.

NB: a fuck of a lot more posh yah types in shoreditch than anywhere else i ever go, just they dress differently and work in web design instead of corporate law. for blonde haired horse-faced sloaney bitches running a stall in spitalfields or a boutique on brick lane is the modern day equivalent of an art gallery in knightbridge.
 
I might be getting a web deisgn job in shore ditch. The agency described them as "snowborder types".

I should be scared right?

On thier website they have a who works there type section with silly questions like favorite colour and food.

Im very very sacred:(

euggghhhh!! :eek:

I think i'd rather work in a place where the staff were described as 'flatulent sex offender white supremacist types'.

That said, knowing the porkies agencies tell you'll probably be working in a book-binding company up city road with a couple of old blokes in jumpers with leather patches on the elbows.
 
i've ssen the webiste, and yeah im a bit apprehensive but the money isn't bad and i can always strat looking for another job if they do staff meetins in a poncy wine bar.

poncey wine bar? haha...you really don't know what the new generation of arrogant, posh media yah's are all about, do ya? and you can count yourself lucky for it, mate. but prepare for a rude awakening. :(

NB: really, nathan barley was a grotesquely accurate portrayal.
 
of course you do, it will be well fuckin futile, yeah?

:cool:

I am gald to say i have never heard any of the phrases you have used other then weapon. The person who used that round me got bullied so unimercillessly that he has been on vicodine and at a shrinks for the last 6months.

dave(may be exagerating)
 
:(:(:( I don't want this job do i!:(:(

dave

no. really. give it a go. it won't really be like the way the agency are portraying it. folk in companies like that would never consider advertising a job to an outsider.

they'd just get one of their dorm mates from boarding school in. even if their 'IT skills' consisted of being able to work the cappucino machine.

In shoreditch, you are the joke.
 
A heard that a lot of the lads like a kind of high energy euro techno trance thing (particularly in sw london/Barnes way) - utterly fucking soulless.
 
Historical it would have been Wham! back in the day of thee original old skool sloane.
BTW, the "Sloaney Pony", Parsons Green, is one if the best real ale pubs in London and does excellent grub.
