Hi Guys

Film student here, made a short documentary about dubstep in Edinburgh as a part of my course. Feel free to like, comment, whatever!

Brilliant stuff. Enjoyable and interesting. Keep it up.

What is that lass on about "Glasgow doesn't have dubstep"?!...

Very nice, a good perspective on things. Also do have a list of the tracks you used in the film? there were 1 or 2 i'd like to know, thanks.

Nice work

couldnt have used any better a city

LOL

Cool film, but what's wrong with garage exactly?

lol @ the bong left out on the table

lol blonde burd flexing her 2 months dubstep experience and her knowledge on the electronic dance music scene in the UK.

no mention of DFRNT or paranoise?

I'm a foreigner - but I'm assuming there's more to dubstep in Edinburgh than a bunch of trendy forward thinking yout

Very cool. Whats the tune @ 0:45?

Cheers for all the support you lot!

That would be Tactus - Jackals, ABAGA records, one of the local boys

Sure thing, you can check out ABAGA records on myspace music to find the tracks, that's where I got most of them. Alternatively just give me the time and I will tell you!

I'm sure there is but you'd be surprised how hard it is to get people involved on a zero budget production, would have loved to get some bigger names on there.



If anyone has NOT been to the bongo club in Edinburgh I recommend getting down there ASAP, awesome dubstep scene, awesome people.. again thanks for the support!

very nice, much respect to my scottish brothers

Honestly, I'm not sure about this...

This is a slightly off-centre representation of "dubstep" as a genre/scene. And more-so, a disappointing portrait of Edinburgh's scene.

"There wasn't that much happening to represent dubstep in Edinburgh" - I'm not sure how much I agree with this - there's a bunch of nights, one almost every day of the week now, as well as a host of good producers. No word in the doc of Paranoise, Morphamish, Akira Kiteshi or Neil Landstrumm. No mention of Volume, Coalition, Innuendub or Xplicit. it felt a little like an advert for Abaga and Jungledub. Hardly a fair representation.

From the outset, I don't think the "garagey drumloops" are all UK garage had to contribute to "dubstep" to be fair.

The bongo club is good but it's not a "dubstep club" per say. They have plenty other genres and nights on offer. No mention of the top class messenger Soundsystem hosted there either.

"Glenrothes and Glasgow don't have dubstep" - it's disappointing to hear ill informed pointless vox-pops from pissed-up punters who clearly haven't got much of a clue.

I'm not anti-drugs, but I'm disappointed that they're hyped up so much in relation to a documentary that was seemingly meant to be about the apparent state of dubstep in Edinburgh.
