I usually use Chemical and a local shop called Grooveriders. The last few visits have me sifting through the same old shiz, but their buyer definitely knows what's up.

LOL Fartstep.

Farts is always funny.

I started off on a pair of gemini xl IIs or some shit like that, learned to beat match on those finicky ass things and when you finally upgrade to techs as I did, it's like oh snap, all of a sudden I can get creative because mad amounts of time I spent trying to finesse the decks could now be spent ...

Guess that at least one of the sound guys know what's up haha.

Any other yanks like myself notice on SNL tonight that the skit "DEEP HOUSE DISH" played Skream's "2D"?

Monumentously EPICally FAILED. Grade: F Nu-Metal is the sound of scraggly tweeker whiteboys attempting to (under the direction of both out-of-touch PR representatives and their own disillusioned egos) grab onto and incorporate something far doper than they could ever have hoped to come up withthemse...

Esh for me. Feelin' the grime influence. Takes less time getting to where it needs to be. Hard hitting low end is fine for me. Sounds kinda effortless. Fresh styles Esh. Movin'.

I think a lot of it comes down to quality control as well. I download (illegally) music from labels to see what they are up to. It helps me map out what artists/labels I want to support by paying for them. For example, I may download (illegally) the newest Dub Police 12's and decide that it's not th...

Didn't say I thought it was him, just wondering if anyone here could confirm or deny.

A friend of mine brought up that Emalkay is pig latin for Kemal, just wondering if they are the same, as in Kemal and Rob Data, or Konflict.

Well I certainly wasn't trying to start a UK vs US flame war with the thread, I only included the option because I thought it was funny. Anyways, what I was getting at is that there is a lot of originality in the dubstep scene overseas (and admittedly a lot of NOT SO ORIGINAL MATERIAL AS WELL), but ...

Thanks yall. It's nice to see such positivity. I've always been a bit self conscious when it comes to making beats, I definitely should lighten up a bit. It's just music. Haha. NO WAIT!

I wonder about how to represent my cross section of the planet in regards to this music. You know, I don't want to just make it gangsta because I'm from Southern Calofornia, but maybe there's something to it. After fidgeting and fiddling for some hours, I managed to create this beat that I think is ...

The answer to this is fairly simple in my book. LEE VAN CLEEF:

I like the album for what it is. Very distinct sounds here. I don't even care that many samples return here throught the tracks etc. Still overall a fairly cohesive deal. For me it's all about RAVER however, since I haven't ever been into 4/4 kick drum music, it makes me wonder what I may have been ...

UGH. Yeah I realize how I might be able to PURCHASE the CD and all, I guess I should have specified the ONE TRACK. Anyhow, I got it off of SLSK and I'm fine now. Sorry to bring my shit up here. Though I have to admit in the spectrum of about 40 minutes or so, I have to say, Since Burial is about the...

I know it's hardly the right forum and all... but please cut a recently displaced OiNK! diaspora a break. Someone, ANYONE, got the original Tina Moore track Never Gonna Let You Go. I need it you know, So I can give it to my girlfriend. Song means the world to me and her. I'm in Southern California a...
