First time I ever went to a dubstep night I saw Jack Sparrow play. Wasn't supposed to happen at all - I was supposed to go to another club with my friend but couldn't get in, so I just wandered around the city until I saw a poster saying "DUBSTEP" and went inside. Didn't have a clue who he was - wouldn't have remembered the name if not for the MC.

Like these sets? Come see me play live at Kibosh in Manchester: https://www.instagram.com/kibosh.mcr/

This video is hilarious. I've been to enough parties where that awful bro-step was playing. People weren't dancing, just doing the mosh-pit / head bob / arm wave thing. Which I wouldn't mind if the music wasn't just aggressive flatulence noises.

you have never heard of the Peverelist? or Shackleton? or Skulldisco (their label)?

check it out. this is where the real nice sound of dubstep is coming out of. the wobbly stuff is just a scratch on the surface. im sure you heard of Burial -- his sound doesnt even compare remotely to the usual junk you find. the definition isn't so set

It's one of the 123455938484504058758503457585050505898 unreleased Mala dubs that will never see the light of the day. Honestly at least 30% of all good tunes in Dubstep never get released. Fucking "Dubplate culture"

Check out this guy http://www.youtube.com/user/beatrixquiddo
All these tunes are unreleased and will 99% never see a release.

How can one not like Mala? I mean I don't like everthing he did but he is one of original founders of Dubstep and he still carries the original spirit. Gotta appreciate that and he did tons of awesome material over the years.

Honestly for me this track always sounded more like a tech-house-dubstep mixture to me. Rest of the album didn't get me that much. I mean I kinda like it but for me there aren't any stand out tunes besides loveless.

Originally posted by SYSTEM-J "Bass music" doesn't just refer to dubstep, you know. It includes jungle, dub, 2-step and other urban British-Caribbean styles. And an increasing amount of dubstep doesn't use much or any sub-bass, just as it isn't all at 140bpm.

I still thing bass is what makes the identity of the genre and kind of keeps it together. Of course not everything has ridiculous bass like the DMZ stuff but still.

I like this track, I also like the alicia one. have a similar vibe to some of the drum n bass I used to listen to.

Daube = "crap" in French slang

the dubstep i like is more techy, like some of the stuff released on Skulldisco. Mala - Alicia just reminded me of old 2-step garage like Groove Chronicles, had that same loungin jazzy vibe.

This is gorgeous.









For the record, Seb and I were making fun of things like the cookie cutter noise that starts around 5 minutes. That synth and rhythm has been used in nearly every single dubstep track I've heard.

Sigh... my thoughts exactly.
