Dont listen to some of the creatures on here, a member was trying to insult me by saying ive been on here less than a year but he was probably still in nappies when i was going to garage raves back in the day. Point being, people seem to think theyve got some sort of internet respect because theyve been posting on a forum for a couple of years.

walsall is a bit of a mission, but it ain't too far. i usually stop in dudley when i'm down there, but i still go out in brum on the weekends. even wolves on the very rare occasion. to be fair i ain't usually too concered about getting home and usually crash at a mates, find a party or seeing as you can actually buy drink after 10pm from the offy down south, get a carry out and go home in the morning. good times! :)

deffo check out the record shops in brum. i managed to find an ammunition promo cd in there years ago with one of the tempa allstars on it plus a couple other tempa tracks and tunes from other ammunition labels. not vinyl i know, but i ain't bought vinyl in years, but if i could find that there, there must be bare vinyl in the shops.

always feel bad when ppl ask this question, but I'm actually wondering, what's up with the nights? I plan on seeing London hopefully soon, mainly to experience dmz in action. I heard shows are slowly becoming less and less regular, I hope they don't die down :(
I found a way to get piece of mind for years and left the hell alone, turn a deaf ear to the cellular phone

it all went quiet in glasgow for a few months, but it's been kickin' off again recently. was a big night last month with loefah, pinch, girl unit and zed bias. a couple good uns coming up this month. breakage and redlight, then zinc, plastician, p money, brackles, elijah & skilliam. next month benji b, coki, pangea, phaelah and mungo's hi-fi.

lofeah n that was quality, the next 3 seem like more of the same.

i ain't complainin'! :D

Yeah man, Academy Records in W-burg Brooklyn actually has an OK selection of good dubstep from month to month—I'm always grateful for that.

each to their own, but i have to say i dont go much on american dubstep (generally speaking), all that midrange screechin shit dose my head in. alot of it's got a "meathead" kind of vibe to it too, i just cant relate to that. its probly coz im british, but i relate more to the dark and gritty sound of uk stuff. props to the yanks for doing their thing but as i said, each to their own.

it's just funny to see people talking about the "uk stuff" and the "american stuff" when both originated and are extremely popular in the UK...

So what do you think about these two tunes from 03 which come either solely or partly from US producers?
