Loefah: But with Forward>> it wasn’t the music so much. I remember what blew me away the first few Forwards>> were [Wiley’s] Devil mixes. I think Youngsta was playing and I was just blown away. Then I was listening more to Mala’s stuff and it was then that it became known as, in my head anyway, “138 shit.” I was writing at 145-155bpm. That was then when it became music to be played at Forward>> but I still didn’t know it was called “dubstep.”

L: My main dubstep stuff I’m trying to do at 138bpm again.

B: I never left 138bpm.

L: I went up to 145bpm

B: Yeah we never went anywhere but especially now with funky at 130bpm… I know you never really liked garage Loe but is was the foundation of what we do, so when funky comes along being UK garage part 2, while I don’t want to rush off and do it, its interesting enough as a movement, so if you’re at 145bpm you cant access it, whereas if you’re at 138bpm it’s not a million miles away. I think Kode9 feels the same, as he now has a whole 130bpm section in his sets. It’s can work

L: Bruv, I’m writing 138bpm 808 beats right now but it’s nothing to do with funky. But you know what, I wanna do some club shit? I still want to make people dance, not force them to dance.
