Hey guys - I'm playing directly after a tearout Dubstep DJ at a decent rave pretty soon and I'm playing funky/house/nighslugs biz.

Any suggestions on tunes that aren't gonna absolutely clear the dancefloor after an hour of doctor p biz?

Thinking about starting on L-vis 1990 Compass and going from there.

play some untold,brackles,shortstuff,ramadaman,micky pearce,trigga,boyce,girl unit,greena,scratcha dva,ur,maw,antony'shake' shakir,martyn,kode9,mr fingers etc

Lol.

that'll clear the floor without doubt man, gonna have to hit pretty hard.

start with that fis t - nighthunter track, that's the most tearout funky tune i've heard

Tunes i currently drop at dubstep nights that go down well are:-

The Brockout - Shake Down
Redlight - Stupid
Platnum - Trippin (Redlight Remix)
SHM - One (Barletta Remix)
Zinc & Benga - My DJ
Zinc & Dynamite - Wile Out

I know theres not really alot of funky etc in there, and probably a bit too commercial some of that, but the dubstep heads seem to accept it.

was going to suggest that, and emvee's glitch dub is fairly hard too. i know some of geeneus' new tunes have got digi releases but I don't buy digi stuff so i've got no idea what's actually available

scratcha's remix of girl unit maybe? depends if you want hard in terms of drums or in the general feel of the tunes (probably the latter if after tearout dubstep?)

i know you said that untold would clear the dancefloor but if you played some of his harder stuff with the grimy basslines i could see that working, and i wouldn't always assume that everyone in a tearout dubstep crowd has no interest in other kinds of music - you might be pleasantly surprised

edit: oh and riot music by donaeo would be ideal

Stupid's definitely in the bag!

Solar Disco (Untold Remix) is too.

Geenous - Ultrafunkula

anything else?

that venom - deeper track is in there too when i get that rekkid!

Just looking for some impact tracks for the first few tunes then take it a bit deeper/less tear out.

Just don't really wanna clear the rave or compromise the sound I want to play

where can you get this tune?? love this one been trying to find it for a while. i think it was on juno a whiles back or something but it ain't there anymore.

I think I'd start with this old classic, the vocal says it all "Please do not be alarmed, remain calm. Do not attempt to leave the dancefloor!"

kingdom could be a good bridge between dubstep and funky

hmm, i got on from either itunes or juno, but isn't on either anymore

Chances are you'll clear the floor anyway playing at 130 rather than 145 as most tear out dickheads seem to play. I'd probably play rat alert

knackers. maybe it's getting a new release on a different label or something.

just play Ikonika - Psoriasis, everything will be okay from there out.

edit* but dont speed it up to 140, play it at the normal speed. slow those gurning trolls down.

egyptrixx - everybody's bleeding has a pretty hard build up

Start with this, it'll appeal to 4x4 fans and the bros.

Play some Deadboy, educate those twots

sometimes turning down a booking is the best way to secure future bookings

edit- nope, not giving that tune ID away

Redlight - Stupid is a good shout....

That, or Lil Silva - Pulse vs Flex...
