So you been into this since January obviously. And whilst Burial is 2 step influenced, you couldn't name a 2 step artist that sounds anything like him. And Versus, Unite, South London Boroughs, Wayfaring Stranger and Southern Comfort are floor-clearers? - funny cause I've seen people that were nodding at the bar hit the dancefloor and go mental for these tunes. I'd say that Milanese, Vex'd, Burial and Boxcutter are four of the more interesting, talented artists working in dubstep now.
Good to know that people that know so much are determining what is and isn't dubstep - no wonder so much of the music's turning into such generic dross now.
Try telling Benny Ill and El-b they're 2 step not dubstep - they were the folks the name was created for by the way.
Losing the swing was the worst thing that happened to dubstep
