Best acts I've seen this year have been Mount Kimbie, Darkstar, SBTRKT and James Blake (let's not get into that discussion again)...

I didn't know that people still did Myspace but there are loads of videos of these guys live if you look on YouTube:







Can't find any videos of Darkstar but I think I have a few I could upload...

Submotion Orchestra are fucking awesome. booked them to play recently, great guys as well.

October tour dates announced

A lot of cool things come from people experimenting with this sort of thing, but I don't know why anyone persists on tying it in to dubstep. It doesn't make any sense with live drums. The Submotion/EngineEarz stuff is cool, but generally I don't know why you'd limit yourself to half-time 140 stuff.

I don't know if I'd agree with it not making sense with live drums, I think it totally depends on who you're talking about. SBTRKT were quality with a combination of live drums and machines...

Ok I'm talking about really just replacing the drums in a dubstep tune with an acoustic kit. It's dance music, it's generally so reliant on tight punchy sounds, hence using triggers/pads to get those sounds.

Don't get me wrong, I love real drums and there's good stuff about, I guess I have Pendulum/C&S/Modestep in my head. Where they've got a drummer playing one pattern on a triggered drumkit all night, might as well not have bothered. I just often see submotion labelled as live dubstep, and to me it's nothng like dubstep it's just quite bassy, and that's not a criticism at all.
