I'd like to see someone trying to play live like Underworld do, but then again, that kind of equipment doesn't come cheap.

2008 will be all about strippers dancing to 'night'

Wow haven't heard that name in a while, loved their stuff back in the day. They used to put quite a lot of the live improvs on the b-sides of their singles and damn good they were too. Think Darren Emerson's really underrated as a producer

sorry about that fucking glasgow show, i don't travel with a bass or guitar cos i don't have a flight case for mine, it's normally not a problem but the glasgow promoters hadn't hired one for me for that show. the one they got me at the last minute was pretty much unplayable (as you'd have saw), it only arrived when soundcheck was over so i never got to hear how weak it was, the action of the bottom string was about an inch and half! so far away from the pickup it wasn't even audible. i wasn't controlling the mixer levels either, they seemed a bit all over the show when i was starting up. it's depressing cos it leaves me looking like a dickhead.

same thing happened me in brighton a few weeks ago as well, 50 quid bass and completely fucked mixer to run everything through, with no soundcheck cos the actual soundsystem never arrived til the doors had opened.

hopefully do it better next time! thanks for coming out to the gig anyway.

oh aye - ace live sets in dubstep (as loosely defined)

from what i've seen -

elemental
geiom
milanese
vex'd

and i really wanna see bass clef at some point! plus loads others

What an encouraging thread this is. Seems everyone is looking forward to the good stuff.

Bass Clef is playing Brighton at the Freebutt on the 22nd of this month by the way, for all those that can make it. 8 - 1am, £4.

Im hoping for the scene to be a bit more fun and no, I don't mean more childish basslines.

For me its:

Jazzsteppa
Nyabingi
2562
Untold
Martyn
Clouds
iTAL tEK
Peverelist
Headhunter
TRG
Marlow
Vaccine
Vex'd (New material very soon from what Im hearing)

surgeon FTW, big list there and so true.

Yes mate, needs more cheeky and less serious/moronic. There is a lot of middle ground which isn't being covered (well, not in dubstep anyway).

Oh and PK to get his tunes out, have some faith in yourself fella, it's exactly what's needed now

hopefully less negative attitudes, more fun in the raves

Yes! + 1 million

Martyn

Late
Sully
Peverelist
Forsaken
Appleblim
TRG

+ all the usuals...

yes very much looking forward to the new VEX'D album coming soon. and then there's -21 Jan 2008 VEX'D - 3RD CHOICE/LOEFAH REMIX 12" ZIQ155-

^cant imagine how big that tune is.

And that Benga's new album too, finally its coming out in Feb. 08

Some silly record label picking up a good tune, ruining it by trying to put a vocal on it and then releasing it into the charts?! I can see this happeneing!

nae worries man, was a good show regardless.

bring the sickness with something else from producers, i think were in for one hell of a ride for tunes in 2008, so many releases at the mo. Just excited for some more huge dances and next DMZ haha. Peace
