Lol, westwood (or 1xtra) removed it out of pure embarrassment.
C&S aren't that great producers, they ain't anything special, music for the masses.

i stick to my opinion and allows others to do the same....that's surely the best thing to do for everyone?

there is no moral high ground here...

They either have great links or good management that does.

It's the main reason they've got to where they are now over any of the many other talented producers that are in the dance music scene. Not having a go, that's just how the industry works.

Yes their management most likely had the video taken down, which is wrong IMO as the BBC isn't supposed to respond to commercial pressure. I highly doubt Westwood had it removed as this probably isn't even a big deal for him, it was a bit of fun and a payback for Plan B running his mouth. Plus he has tons of interviews where he rips it into people he thinks aren't keeping it real, are manufactured artists (Asher Roth, Chipmunk etc.) or whatever his beef is.

Commercial censorship = FAIL BBC.

There isn't a copy left on the net but managed to save it to my desktop yesterday.

Maybe I'm being slightly out of line here, but wouldn't anybody else like to see Westwood destroying Chase and Status' greased anuses with a 17" strap on phallus?

Westwood could nick his dad's bishop garms and I'm sure C+S could get hold of some nun outfits?

Just me?

The "people dance to it therefore it's good" thing doesn't strike with me, no disrespect plastician you as a DJ actually got me into dubstep, if it wasn't for you I wouldn't be here!

Kode 9: I suppose over the last couple of years I’ve been interested in … don’t release the tension until it’s worth releasing. I’ve enjoyed DJ sets recently where the tension just swells and swells and swells, and don’t allow a release… until.. you’re allowed two or three releases in the whole set. But you’re not just climaxing every two seconds. Because that’s not a climax, that’s just deflation, every two or three seconds. It’s just irritating to be honest, stop start. It’s simple for me, I like dark rooms, I like to be in complete darkness when I play, I like that feeling of intimacy in a room, it doesn’t matter how big the room is, but when it’s dark, and you’re not stopping and starting all the time, you build up this tense energy in the room that makes quite an intimate situation, and makes everyone really sensitive to what’s going on. Whereas if it’s all beer bottles in the air and shouting every three minutres because someone’s just rewound the tune, and moshpits, which is quite common in dubstep these days. I don’t find that particularly intimate.
Thats the thing I'm talking about. That is why I don't like C&S, because it's music made clearly just for effect, but it's quite often played all night and it loses that effect. Eastern Jam is actually a big tune, but it's not a big tune if it's played straight after spongebob and bar9. 1 really hype tune an hour at a night is fucking perfect I aint gonna walk of the dance-floor because if the DJs have been building tension up and then drop a big tune at the end then it was worth releasing that tension. Only time I ever been to FWD I seen two amazing DJ sets, Benny Ill played Eyez, Level 9, His new tunes and stuff like that for 50 mins then played one of them Coki tunes (one of the spongebob like ones - maybe was spongebob i'm not too sure) and after all that time playing dark, minimal stuff it really worked but if he had played Brostep all set and then finished with that tuen it wouldn't have had an effect (on me!). Same with geeneus, played Deep/Tech house (whcih i'm not a super fan off but it was still good) for an hour then ended with Proxy - Raven (a kinda Crack/Fidget house tune) and it really had a devastating effect for me.

In contrast Skream (no disrespect seriously one of my favourite producers and radio show is mint!) played when I look at you and rewound it, and played What are you looking at? etc. the crowd loved it, sure, but I personally wasn't feeling it as much. The thing is more people might like it - but there are still enough people who don't to warrant nights without that kind of stuff being played. A few years ago this kind of dubstep didn't really exist and so a night was full of good music with the occasional peak (Haunted. Glamma etc.) where as now it's brostep all night which really grates that is why people are complaining, I think. It may appeal to more people, but it's alienating some dubstep fans which is why people are upset.
