My teenage side-fucking-fringed scenester cousin gave this love on a recent facebook status of hers so for that I am going to nut her when i next see her.
tbf this is just kiddies music isnt it?
had a few 14 year olds buy it
tbf it hasnt sold anywhere near as well in our store as the getdarker ones
obf the ministry of sound one pwns all though
if i remember the last time i checked this is dubstep 2 78 copies
this is dubstep (newer cd so had less time) 35 copies
sound of dubstep 134 copies
generation dubstep 8 copies
dubstep allstars 7 24 copies
of course im telling everyone not to buy generation dubstep
it tends to be pretty obvious that most people buying the ministry of sound cd are fuckwits
i get asked if datsik has an album every week by kids with shit hair...i tend to ask them if they like it and then say REALLY? and then ask them if they like any of the croydon dubstep artists that started it and they look confose
these tough lads asked for dubstep a while ago and i showed them the section with peverelist, dfrnt, skream, reso, benga, rusko, kode9, martyn, box of dub, dubstep allstars, i love dubstep, rinse cds, distance, mount kimble etc etc etc in it and they looked totally lost and blurted almost in desperation DONT YOU HAVE A CD THAT JUST HAS ALL LIKE THE REMIXES ON IT
a regular customer was there who spends shitloads on the goodstuff and we both creased up when they left
Well arent you the professional. I cant believe you waited until they left before you creased up. I would have laughed in there chavvy looking faces. I know we must look like elitist stnuc but it must drive you completely nuts when these people come in requesting such shite. I guess you have to abide by the customer is always right attitude and let them purchase what they want but a little education can never go a miss especially if it means they develope a true love for dubstep and will make them look back with embarrassment once they find 'better' stuff.
Also thanks for hooking up my mate Adam (AD). He said he spoke to you when Shivers and Lost played Sheep and you was some what confused when he mentioned playing your night in the 11 August but I trust everything worked out in the end.
to though.
