As does Lemon, 0800, I, 28g, korma and Dutch Flowers.
A lot of his new stuff is sick as well, going in all sorts of directions!

Genius.

Everything he releases ranges from solid (at worst) to incredible. The Skreamizm series is incredibly consistent. Also, his new-ish stuff - like I Love the Way and Love Don't Come Easily - underlines his versatility.

I struggle to think of many producers in the scene with as much range as him... Stylistically how different do Filth and I Love The Way sound? Yet they're still both big tunes imo.

a good producer has the gift of making his craft seem simple. it's the listeners job to recognize craftsmanship. if you think skream's overrated chances are you're a shitty critic.

skream is pure genius

seeing him & hatcha live was one of the high points in 2008

his tunes are always on point, not to mention the multitude of styles he can throw down

"don't hate, innovate!"

He made Glamma. That to be is one of the most quintissential Dubstep tunes ever released. Never mind the countless others I could reel off.
Hes also a wicked Dj and a proper safe lad to boot and you can tell he loves what he does. Why this discussion is even relevant I dont know

Did it ever get released?

I'm here because of Burial. /End Story.
Burial was here becasue of El-B & Digital Mystikz. Digital Mystikz are here because of Skream. (To some Extent)

Would be a very different music without Skream /END STORY

...and?

All about Rusko & Bar 9 now anyway.

never getting released as far as I know. it wouldn't make sense in anyone else's set anyway, as it has a vocal referencing Skream.

skream is the man. his passion for the music and culture is obvious. not only are his tunes great, but he has also started a sick label. the scene wouldnt be what it is today without him.
