Beginner dubstep and filth tunes for a US crowd

[tacospheros]

The US is so fukin lame, like im sorry but really, when i see videos of people DJing in the US, the crowd are just pathetic

mostly the bro types, with no idea how to skank or dance to the music, loads of odd girating movements

I just love how real and honest the UK is, people just come to raves to skank out in a dark room with a killer soundsystem. Proper underground style

Not tranna dis the US but, our scene makes me proud to be british! BIG UP POWAH AND THE DMZ MASSIVE!

nice generalization there. do all Brits have bad teeth ? you're a fuckin herb . the ENTIRE UK is real and honest? Yeah ok


you're honestly trying to tell me that people in the UK can dance better than people in the US??? Im not saying one is better than the other , I'm saying it's fucking retarded to even suggest such a thing would be possible to figure out . i dont even know why you would post some shit like that, you're judging our whole country off some youtube videos? fuck off

i dont think starting up a us vs uk sesh would go very well on this forum.

cant we all just get along?



also i cant really imagine huddersfield having the most vibrant of dubstep scenes

You're in a decent area for Dubstep

Chicago is a decent stronghold... Phaded and company hold shit down.

Champaign (relatively near by) has a decent thing going

St Louis has weeklies and usually turns out a lot of dubstep at the raves/parties

That little pocket in the midwest is one of the stronger parts for dubstep stateside.

I used to live in Chicago, I think you're safe with dark tracks. Trust me, more heads into the dark stuff in Chicago than over here in LA...
I've seen pretty good response to the older, pioneering aggressive sounds... so maybe stick to those, (Kromestar, coki, skream) and mix it in with the dark stuff. Really, you should be playing what you want and how you are feeling for the night. Communicate with the audience... I think if you are true to yourself and your tune selection, the crowd would respond to you better.

[noam]

if u gotta play bate tunes for a bate crowd just go on chemical records and look at the top sellers

and look at Circus Records

and look to Rusko

and look to the wobble-heads, Funtcase et al

and look to Joker, joy orbison

and if its for a thing where you wana get people dancin look to Garage cos you can mix that just as easy with dubstep, and girls tend to like it and dance to it

this isn't a shit stirrin post btw, but if you wana play dubstep to people who aint really heard it out before play them this cos this is the most newcomer friendly stuff

in fact the list some guy put up on the first page is pretty spot on

you must not be going to the right nights man.. i live in LA and theres big acceptance to all sounds.

Yeah if your struggling to find the popular/hype/filth/chart remix stuff then you are obviously doing it wrong.

I struggle to stay away from this stuff and find the deeper vibes

edited for usefulness:

Circus records (as mentioned)
C&S
Numbernin 6
Koan Sound
