haha seen... i always thought lord finesses mid 90's production was dubbed out, esp on albums like the awakening... definetly alot of inspiration to be found in that gritty sound..

First Mobb Deep album's really heavy on the bass and nice echoey production (shook 1z propa classic), Main Source, some Public Enemy stuff on Fear of a Black Planet, Smif'n'Wessun, loads of RZA's stuff has that sort of rawness and heavy bass. Early Pete Rock and CL Smooth. Think "Smash Sumthin" by Redman's quite reggae-like in the bassline (and a fine beat to boot - party ammo)

Just picked up a hip hop remix of Bam Bam the other day (if sticking another beat over the original is strictly a remix) reminded me of that sort of early-90's massive drum production values - pick up a copy if you get the chance

In the short time ive been producing its mainly been hip hop, so i can only assume that it influences my shit attempts at dubstep.

Should check "Say What" by Latyrx (Lateef and Lyrics Born) if you ain't heard it already - that's the maddest rappin I ever heard.

J Dilla R.I.P. Check 'Marijuana' on '48 Hours' by Frank n Dank (whole lp too) for heavy bass. And 'Eve' by Spacek (remix) too. i reckon he would've loved dubstep

quannum pka solesides crew, originally blackalicious (gift of gab and chief xl) and latyrx (lyrics born (pka asia born) and and lateef the truth speaker) and dj shadow. Later extended fam include lifesavas, joyo velade and some others i cant remember!

talkin bout latyrx u gotta peep 'lady dont tek no' prolly one of the best party jams in the histry of music. crazy how people react to that tune...

First Mobb Deep album's really heavy on the bass and nice echoey production (shook 1z propa classic),

their debut was 'juvenile hell' but it was mediocre anyways, prolly cause they where really young, but yeah between 'the infamous' , 'hell on earth' and 'murda muzik' you could argue that was one of the best 3 album stretches in hip hop.everything since has been sell out. havoc is a fucking phenomenal producer though.

Don't know the later albums, but the infamous has some of my favourite production of that time, think loads of those sounds'd work well in dubstep, nice drones slammin beats, heavy bass. Quite inspirin in a way listening to it now. Think it's got a good mix of dark and light and some pathos in the lyrics which wasn't that common a currency at the time (and admittedly loads of gun-shit which sadly was).

I dig their old stuff but I LOVE the Mobb album Amerikaz Nightmare... the beats on that are some of the most hypnotic hiphop I've heard. Amazing...
