Hey, I haven't been following the scene for the past few months. Recently got a chance to listen to Eleven Tigers' "Clouds are Mountains" and then was also recommended Clubroot's debut "II MMX" which surprised me in its quality release. Also been looping Ikonika's XLR8R mix which is bomb. Looking for more similar stuff based on those three works. But apart from that, wanna know what else has been making the waves hot?
Thanks everyone

II MMX is Clubroot's 2nd album, his debut was self-titled.

Dude I feel ya.
Sepalcure's Hotflush debut is stunning. All 4 tracks are huge.
Immerse Records doin it too. That Planas release was wicked, ditto Asusu, and forthcoming Kontext album if I'm not mistaken?
I still rinse Roof Light's offering on L2S too. Absolute quality beat-wise and melody-wise.

Listened to most of the suggestions here.
Pleasantly surprised with
Gyu "Purified"EP
Sepalcure "Love Pressure" EP
Addison Groove "Footcrab / Dumbshit" (especially love Footcrab)
Ital Tek's "Spectrum Falls / Giga" rocks too
also on my own Spectrasoul's "Glimpse / Abstentis (love this)"
and listened to Loefah's B.LOW (1st Anniversary) mix which was filled with goodness - amazing start with Footcrab and Kryptic Minds tune just blend so well
listened to Joe's Claptrap.. interesting, still have to listen to Blawan and the other Joe release.
anything else anybody wants to recommend?

Seeing as your leaning towards 'that' music (much respect for it btw) check out Pariah, Orpheus is a badman tune.

Oh yeah ashley! thanks for that, the first drop sealed the tune for me. I like more futuristic sounding dubstep. I also like techy, dark, atmosphere layered ones as well. Kryptic Minds caught my attention from Loefah's B.LOW mix
