Exactly this! Don't just look in the Dubstep section either, because I've found some gems in other departments too...

Talk to mates both face to face and on teh F@cebuukZ
Go to my record shop at least once a month and ask the dude what he's got forthcoming.
It still isn't working 100%. Each month crucial releases are missed

p.s - I also check Chemical Records every day for general/vinyl only releases (purely out of habit from before I had Serato...) and the hallowed DSF of course!

Also, for forthcoming releases you can check out Get Darker TV; a live mix of mostly dubplates every Tuesday night.

definitely, best advice man. Don't feel the need to 'keep up' because you feel as if you are missing out! Listen to what YOU want to listen to, not cause fact magazine told you to.

I do listen to what I want to listen to, which is more dubstep, and I can never get enough of it, so I'm constantly on the search for more
