dude, big tunes!

Big ups to the other Vegas dub heads, Metaphase, Trillbass, and King. Think thats all of us that bust out the dubs.

Big ups to the Northern Ireland crew, Bad Operator, Detwist, Sully, and Boxcutter :D

just on sunday we ran into Moldy, Kuma (he gets a pass... if he wants ;) ), Monkeytek, Gaslamp Killer, the Muti crew, DJ G, Noah D and a host of other folks... and that's just the artists. Tons of behind-the-scenes folks as well who are quickly becoming the glue that holds this together for the continent. North American dubstep is alive, well (REALLY well. my god, really, really well) and pushing boundaries as always.

Nah, I been reppin' since day, I'm not about to stop now, Canadian-ness or not ;) Sunday was a beautiful gathering and it was lovely to see sooooooooo much of North America's bassweight contingent under the blue skies. Oh yeah, and that Mary-Anne chick...

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.
i pretty clearly remember a statement from bassnectar maybe 3 years ago saying he wasn't into dubstep, and although he took some influence from it, he didn't take it seriously

I've forced Svpreme Fiend to start making dubstep and future garage like.. exactly one year ago. So I'll take responsibility for starting like.. 0.001% of the yankstep scene.

He said the majority of it was "too dark" referencing only the style that skream, benga, tunnidge, etc. were producing a few years ago. He was pretty disrespectful about it as well. I read the rant a few months ago.

He also screwed Benga out of performing at DEMF.
hey, you wouldn't hire a clown to fix a leak in the john..so why do you let these hooligans tear down the biz?
