been in to electronic stuff since '93. aphex/black dog/orb etc. always been into techno. was heavily into jungle/dnb. I always thought 2step was going to evolve into something darker, more 'techno'. heard andrew weatherall playing some dark techy 2step stuff in 2001/2002, started watching kode9's show on groovetech around that time. but its taken me a while to get my DMZ wings etc as it were. Only really started playing the stuff when rephlex's compilation came out.

through rinse.....i do have a lot of the ghost stuff....then came the slimzee era b4 he went darker.....all the naughty and texture and bingo and big apple stuff..........."the judgement" and "shockwave" by plastician were my 1st 2 dubstep tunes

Seeing Lombardo when he played here a few years ago blew my mind. The shit sounded so good and a big sound system. The bass blew me away

June of this year. Skream in Avalon, NY.

I live on well street.. but i dont understand what u mean by dat.

Was into 4hero and the broken beat scene after i got bored of the constraints of house. Liked some of the 2step but never saw a lot of it round these parts. Loved "Red" by artwork off the Bugz in the attic mix cd. Saw dubstep allstars vol1, thought "must check this out when i'm flush". Forgot. Started downloading mixes; Grime/dubstep was the same to me then. Came across Gutterbreakz blog. BIG UP GUTTER!! Found DMZ3 in local record shop. Met appleblim working in Bath Fopp. Went to Subloaded then DMZ at 3rd base. And that sealed it really...

you try to explain this to the tech step kids, but they're all "ZOMG dark dnb is the hardest thing in the world!!". Sorry kids, but Vex'd own the piss out of Evol Intent.

I mean, what is speed anyway? you know who else isn't fast? Godzilla. Does his slowness stop him from crushing cities? nope, not at all. I don't understand why music needs to be fast.

hatch made up the name? he really influenced the sound but i'm 100% it was neil tempa who made up the name. i even heard that hatcha was telling people i made up the name, which isn't true at all...

john peel.

had been into techno n freeparty business for years, n as i was starting to discover peeps like tech itch n kryptic minds as well as the whole grime thing i heard some digital mystiks on the breezeblock n was pretty taken back. then 'lion' was played a few weeks later and i was absolutely screwing. has seriously dominated me musical interest since.

Distance and Mark One stuff played on the Peel show, early 2004 I think

irc ... lol

FWD>> at Velvet Room
Martin Clark playing me a promo of In Fine Style in Tuscany, summer 2001 (maybe 2002, my memory ain't up to much)
Hype releasing Pussy Track Remix
And me not getting a copy of Zed Bias's remix of E2E4, which pissed me off massively...

.... that pretty much convinced me.

I found dubstep in the course of my greater search for the rarest of bass notes that can raise my concsiousness to a state of pure bliss...

....or to put it another way, I stumbled across Horsepower Production's 'In Fine Style' in the garage section at Phonica Records.
