First night: Some random set in a bar I was working at in 2007
First Big name:Digital Mystikz at Electric Picnic in 2008. Great set but they were forced to turn it down half way through iirc.

probably the best dubstep night i've been to aswell. soundsystem that night absolutely smashed it.

made me wonder why i hadn't pulled my finger out and went to a dubstep night in glasgow before that. was pretty much done with going to dnb night by that point. no chance i was missing loefah tho.
That was such a wicked night. Man, I miss the Art School...

My first dubstep night was actually the first ever in Los Angeles. It was April 26, 2006- the first SMOG Sessions.

DJs for the night were Matty G, Nick Argon, Subcode, Unit, and Knife Dreams. I remember first hearing loefah tunes on a system that night, and Matty G's tunes! My life has not been the same since.

Oh how times have changed/ :(

acronym wrote:Technically, a local DJ named Bowzer (I think he's on here actually, but no idea if he still comes on). I'd booked him for a closing set of a party I was throwing in 2007 without understanding what dubstep was, and watched a few minutes of his set before wandering off to do something. Treated it like more of a curiosity, really.
yes! big up boozer. I used to lock into all of his streams a few years back.

Took me awhile to get to an actual show, had been listening for a year or so before I actually made the effort and it was a big effort.

Kromestar in Mungos Arena at Outlook 2010.

Still best sound system I've ever heard.

It was November 2010 and my first night at the TP, they had upstairs, some DnB outfit had downstairs and we're really good but Pinch was fucking magnificent

DMZ played last March as well come to think of it with drlego playing support. They love Ireland so hopefully we can get them back soo enough
