HXDB? XI? ETC?
come to vancouver.
or get in touch with Apocalyptica in mtl. they're putting shows and are about the full-spectrum of the sound.

Just wondering, producers on this thread are claiming the deep stuff doesn't sell. Then how the hell are producers like appleblim, 2562, scuba, ramadanman, jus wan, F, helixir, etc. so big? There stuff is mega deep, and it doesn't seem to be affecting their sales. Not to mention, I probably buy 70% deep material, and I know I'm not the only one buying this stuff. Explain.

whoa.. whoa.. whoa...

let's not forget one of the original west coast cali steppas: BassNectar

for anyone that doesn't know. bassnectar is pro. really pro. he's been doing the san francisco dubstep scene for a while now and he's largely to thank for shaking up the dstep scene here on the westcoast.

before i saw rusko benga or anyone else perform in america, i saw bassnectar first and he's been around for a little while now. good shit.

lol actually if you're talking original its the Grime City crew 4 years deep, FIRST grime and dubstep monthly in bay area. And i have honeslty never seen him at anything but a HUGE large scale event or festival (only for like the last 2 years) no diss tho, mad respect to him.

You are right about that I guess the deep lovers just don't look to deep lol. The deep stuff I have put out has sold the worst. I stand by the tunes. Not sure what the problem is. Maybe it's because it IS deep BUT doesn't sound like those guys you mentioned at the same time. This is the subject of a thread other than this one tho. This thread is about AMERICA, FUCK YEAH!

im from LA-area and have never heard of Grime City but now i'll have to find out for myself. sometimes i feel like i belong in sf more than LA... there's no doubt though that when we're talkin about real grime, LA is a dirty place. great for dubstep, the flu, and underground music... bad for living and working, lol.
