I wouldn't say that dubstep is in a lull. But we want to be forwarding. So we should do new things. How about some other rythm measures. I got a track that's somehow dubby with middle eastern flavor which got a 6/8th-measure and is very dancable (at least for me). By the way it can be downloaded he...

feeling this. a lot.

mind if i play it out?

i think people need to look at the differring intentions of different DJs sets. some people wanna play old Fela and funk to entertain a crowd. but other DJs want to move an entire current genre forward by expressing themselves through their selection and presentation of brand new music. which will ...

Can you really call playing breakstep, dubstep, and grime in the same set "diversity?" If that's what passes for diversity it shows how narrowly focused the rules are. The funny thing is I know most people here listen to all different forms of music (see previous thread). So why when it co...

Still haven't managed to hear Mr. Loe's Candy refix. Any audio to be had? Or is it maybe in one of the Rinse sets floating around??? Anxious to check this.

It was a quality night. Packed house. Attractive females dancing with abandon. Plastic and Vex'd threw down. Crowd was really feeling Vex'd in particular. Word of mouth on the Degenerate album has been amazing.

Cheers Kuma! Gonna be ripe!

Besides dubstep I only listen to Neal Sedaka.

This is great news. It's time for somebody to come along and re-infuse jungle music with a political voice. Nobody is more ripe for the task than Gerald. Black Secret Technology and 28 Gun Bad Boy were way beyond anything else around at the time (except maybe for 4 Hero), so it's great to hear Geral...

Word! Good look Seckle. S+D/Hotflush in DEcember gonna be filthy. Things are starting to bubble..........

Big up everybody supporting the sound! "All rudeboy stand forth and unite...."

Just announced: DUB WAR III Friday, November 18 ROTHKO, lower east side, NYC NYC's only dubstep night goes extra large, moving to Rothko in Manhattan. And to celebrate we're bringing none other than London's DJ KODE 9 for his first NY appearance! Expect the hyperdub sound the way it's supposed to be...

this is a giant release. big up mala and the whole dmz! and thanks for keeping the releases coming without delay!

is there a set date yet for the release? i have a party mid-november and would love to have this one in the box.

N-Type, just heard this tune (Way of the Dub) the other night on Joe's show . Congrats brother this is a heavy tune. Looking forward to the release.

This looks quality. I'm assuming it's gonna be focused on the more breaksteppy side of things?

What label's releasing it?

In the same vein as "Flatbeat" Paul Rose used that Detroit Grand Pubas track "We can make sandwiches" in one of his mixes recently and it worked perfectly.

Dubplate culture has always been a complicated issue, even for drum n bass, because it's inherently elitist and could be seen as alienating potential consumers of the sound. However it does impose a very high level of quality control on the music and gives it a definite mystique. When that 2 year ol...

Looks like they finally got it sorted. Big news.
Stream's working for me, first time in months.

Dubway has the Skream Big Apple mix from a few years back up on the blog (dubstep.blogspot.com). If you want to hear Skream's tunes in all their glory I would suggest downloading Hatcha's last studio mix 'Practice Hours,' which I believe is also posted on Dubway's site. Hatcha has all the new Skream...

I love dubstep because it's the only true 21st century dub. And while new genre may come and go I will love dub til the day I die.

Amazing. So the rumors that were floating around dubplate.net awhile back have proved true.
