Anyone hop right into dubstep, or R U from another scene?

Jungle/Dnb->Garage->Grime->Dubstep

I still listen to quite a bit of Grime. Unfortunately there hasn't been much coming from the Garage scene in recent years. I don't think there's anything I can say about DnB that hasn't already been said a million times on this forum.

via idm (had a long time listening mainly to drill`nbass stuff) and dub (basically the delay stuff and the bassline/drums spirit that always appealed to me)

If I like it i'll buy it.

our routes sound fairly similar. although i did delve into dnb back in 97-99, until i got bored with it. but mostly through techno and a bit of ambient/experimental and dub...

I came from Grime as an MC, under the name D3.

My mate Havok brought me into the dubside.

I aint turned my head back since.

DJ Shadow once said, the music you were into when you were 17 is the music that will be with you your whole life. When I was 17, I was a jungle dj, threw jungle parties, started a jungle magazine (called it Rewind Digest), would travel long distances to go to jungle parties... so I'll always have dnb music as my core.

Im 27 now, and dubstep makes me feel like I am 17 all over again.

skiped jungle and went straight to DnB, althought got into it still, skiped garage/2-step and went straight to dubstep. Listen to a little garage and 2-step just out of interest sake.

I'm old. Jumped into punk/metal when I was 16. Played guitar in a number of bands. Got fed up with that around '95 and jumped into dnb. Got fed up with that more recently and have been doing the dubstep thing for a little while now. I wouldn't consider myself apart of any scene exclusively anymore though. I can't listen to anyone genre for too long without going crazy.

Anything -> Jungle -> DnB (techstep) -> Breaks -> 2Step -> Dubstep

Half Jamaican, dub, reggae, blues, soul kiddie.

Started listening to Jungle around 1994 (hang tight the 8/9 year olds with Jungle Mania/Fever tapes), hip-hop after Jungle died out, Garage around 1999, jumped off garage when grime got big, DnB when I came to Uni and I'm a dubstepper now.

Still listening to the most of it, i dont think i'll ever really turn my back to a genre. Im really a mood person, listen to what i feel like in the moment. But most of my moments is going to the dubstep thang.

In 1997, for first time i heard some dub on the radio, by then was buying lots of chillout music, all sorts from psicodelia, easylistening, film hop, trip hop,to ninja tune stuff etc etc but when i listen to thoses dub songs i felt very real good with the vibe. Searched for dub and the first dub records to fall in my hands after a frenetic search round all music shops in Barcelona, were BURIAL MIX 'What a mystery' and 'Spend some time' with Tikiman singing, I love thoses records. After then i bought lots of dub 'Rythem and Sound' Dub concience' 'High Tone' (for those who don´t know them fantastic french Dub Band), Zenzile, dUBHEaD Too and many others ,A lot of minimal, techno, some french hardtek, old acid, little break, hip hop, trance sounding like MIDIMILIZ, DELTA, also ethnic music in the style of Ekova´S REMIXES some good labels for me are technowise ej. Acid OranGE, Basic Channel, Labrat, drop Bass etc etc (never been into d&B or jungle much).... 5 years ago I started reducing the amount of records I bought cause minimal was starting to bore me and i found little duB that motivated me and the rest all sounded the same saw little or no creativity in the music i Heard….then TEmpa crossed my path..... you cannot believe my excitemente of at last listening to some really 21st century music... I´m 26 And I too feel LIke 16 again. great feeling... so motivatinG... In my case who I willbe very thanKful to are Dj FOod And UnderworlD, though, seeing them play live implused me to Start buying records, that changed my life.

Kinda the same here. I badly wanted if not needed a musical cultural mindset in which freedom was 'allowed' and a lot of basses were involved. When dub was not enough anymore I stumbled upon 'Check Me' and my life has changed since then!

Random stuff I listened to as a small child> Rock> Post Hardcore> DNB> British Hip Hop> Grime> DNB> Slow progression into Dubstep after that

Unfortunately i was too young when jungle came through

however I am now discovering the joys of it

Anyone hop right into dubstep, or R U from another scene?
