Anyone who cranks out some wax, hit me up for distribution. We do the Lo Dubs gear and we're pressing up some stuff for Starkey's Philly gang. We're plugged straight in to Hyperdub's distributor for UK and do hella business in Japan too.

dont mean to sound uber negative but if u ever wanna move forward, consider moving out of Sac.

just my 2 cents... good luck with what you are doing tho.

I'm writing from Texas, and I can't turn any of my friends onto dubstep.

Regardless... I love the dubstep - have not listened to anything else in the past 3 months

I'd love to hear from any of the US gang into dubstep.

-Drew

Generally we as American live in a culture devoid of any interest in EDM what-so-ever. I mean I stopped trying YEARS ago to turn heads onto techno, dnb, or even house music. Dubstep is generally so much more abstract than even those musical genres that I don't even bother with it. Not many of my old dnb friends like it and you know what? It doesn't dissapoint me really. I stopped raving years ago and now I only listen to the music. So what if no one else likes my tastes?! There's no club scene here* so fuck it!

On the flip, don't get me wrong I wish genres like this were a little more popular but the reality is that Americans want rock 'n' roll and hip hop and that's about it. "music with words, man" is what I get mostly. I get away with playing a lot of downtempo and trip hop to my non-edm friends because there's a lot of human feeling in that sound, lyrics, real instruments, real drums etc...

*here is Asheville, NC if you wanted to make an argument. I realize that there's an actual club scene in places like ATL, and NYC...
