OK. So SPIN came out with their dubstep 101 article last week and I got to thinking that I've yet to see a "history of dubstep" thing exist online - there are videos and books (I think I remember a book?) - but what about like, an interactive timeline and notes about the history with video...

Yooo!

MTV has brought back the Online Music Awards - some of the categories are quite ridic and the winners are determined by voting.

Lots of LOLs for the categories for MTV's OMA's. For those that used to/still post on Dogs on Acid, DOA's up for a best music forum nomination http://www.omusicawards.com/vote/best-music-forum . I'm up against some awesome people in the Hot Music NILF category (nerd I'd like to friend?) http://www.o...

Props to Dave Q, Joe Nice, Bassnectar, Nick Argon, Drew Best and the Dub War and SMOG crews for getting shout-outs in the article!

Thoughts on the content?

Random - but I'm wondering if anyone who's big in the scene these days is under 21. I can't think of anyone off the top of my head but am hoping you all can help.

11:30 tonight is when Malas on.

Can't buy tix online anymore and I'm not back in town until 11. Will try to reach but TBD.

I shall be there.

did I heard dsf meetup? that would be amazeballs! front row at mala THIS. + front row Goth-Trad as well. and Ramadanman... and Kode9... well, you get the point. i'm gonna wear a shirt and write dsf on it or something XD that's not a bad idea... then again, it's likely to be so hot that shirt = bath...

The NYC Parks + Rec pools have ladies-only swim times bc of religious reasons. I live in a neighborhood that's half hipster, half orthodox jews, so it's used quite often. Annoying but I can see the relevance (plus I'm a lady, so I can swim anyway ).

sooooo there.

did I heard dsf meetup? that would be amazeballs!

already looking into getting a house with a few friends from around the world - all dnb/dubstep heads . the lineup looks amazing all around and it should be a fun weekend!

I figure the events will start popping up soon in the events forum, but I haven't seen a roll call thread anywhere (or I just don't know where to look).

Who else is reaching and what dates are you in town for?

always happy to have new material to mention/review on my blog - katie at candidkatie.com is the email address. Cheers!

travel journalist (ok, so perhaps not totally realistic)

more realistic - creating digital marketing strategies for cool companies (probably music companies)

Booked as well. Always happy to put in some cash to go to such an amazing night - totally worth way more than $15.

BRING
IT
ON

buying my presale on Monday. Still doing the Thurs night thing? If so my only free night this week just went out the window, and I couldn't be happier :) Some photos from Dub War 1st Anniv party http://farm1.static.flickr.com/60/228691131_dbfe14d5f6_o.jpg http://farm1.static.flickr.com/81/228691177_...

HUGE night. I can't wait until next month!!! I've got about 8-10 videos to upload - I think I managed to grab at least one clip of each DJ. I LOVED the variety the other night - the music just kept getting better and better and the DJ's all seemed to be having a ball. LOVE LOVE LOVE (no pun intended...

SO there. Bring it.

I'm in town for this - will be out for sure! wwooooo hhoooooo!!!
