Later, as we lay together on the hood, watching the constellations twinkle in that eternal blackness, Dubstep nibbled my ear and told me that it would always look after me, that I was 'special'.

Nowadays Dubstep won't even return my calls.

lol

And yet you've jumped straight in the back of Funky's Vauxhall Nova.

When will you learn, you slut?

Oh and it was the drums for me, I was so used to dnb breaks and garage that a bit of actual variation blew me away. Zomby said in a thread something like 'the best dubstep tunes are the ones that constantly sound like they're about to break into 2-step but never do'.

I think he threatened someone's life in the next sentence, but the point still stands

the tune which sparked my intense interest/addiction was Digital Mystikz - Mawo Dub

i was aware of stuff before that but 'Mawo Dub' was the first 'Dubstep' tune that really made me sit up and get excited...

highlights after that were...

- Dubstep Warz on MAH

- standing in a dark room with a zoot listening to Loefah's 'System'

- my first FWD>> @ Plastic People

2005, after recovering of "Boy In Da Corner" by Dizzee Rascal i was lookin for everything that was called "grime". So listened to Rephlex compilation "Grime" and liked it. A friend of mine knew that i had fine tastes in music and wanted me to give him an advice cuz he wanted to buy something new. We were in Barcelona, in a record shop and i saw, Mark One's "One Way". I told him that this guy was dope, never listened to his album but heard some tunes. My friend bought it but didn't like this album... I did!!

When it's about music, I have to mention my mate Skar cuz we've musically evolved together. So we saw that Plastician, Mark One and Digital Mystikz were playing for free in Brussels alongside Skepta and JME if I remember good. And we were like ":o" After that, my mate DJ Skar started to buy some of this instrumental cold bass music we called grime. Downloading mixes. I remember a mix by Marsellus Wallace and Kaliba (now know as Grimelock) where there was a tune I had heard played by the 3 DJ i mentioned... Skar told me "Man, this tune is called "Midnight Request Line" and it's made by a 20 year old young English, his name is Skream"...

Few months passes, listening to some Marsellus and Kaliba mixes, Skar mixes, still calling it grime

Then, 2006, the name was dubstep: Loefah "Ruffage", Kode9 "Nine Samurai", Kromestar "Kalawanji", Skar's mixes, and most of all, most most most of all BunZer0's mix "X". That's when i fell in love with the sound, i was officialy in love with it.

So big thanks to Skar, Grimelock, BunZer0, Skream, Loefah, Kode9, DMZ

I know what made me like it, but what made me love it was hearing it on a big system for the first time. Was kinda like "ooooooooh riiiiight, I get it".
