Raves are absolutley livid !
It gets to the point where u wana go to every dub event going.
Even jugglin btween 2 venues a night @ times
Quite a bit gets released, saleswise; im sure its VERY healthy.
Dubtep's also doing very well outside LDN & Internationally.. so much support.
Hope this helps

i'd say the raves aren't MANY yet, aside from london. but they're fucking addicting.
i think the only places where dubstep is getting popular other than london is NYC and perhaps sweden, as far as i know.
record sales seem to be doing real well considering the fact that whenever i want to find a hot record it usually sells out within a day or less from all the stores, the problem in my opinion is they aren't making enough of them.

BC's got a wicked little scene going and it seems about to blow up...
All underground mostly warehouse events, lots of local producers and mad support.

on the events page there is NOTHING FOR CHICAGO.
i would be happy to get this started, 'cept as a gallery owner who has just reached my first year anniversary, i cant afford to buy records and start spinning myself.
i should be an agent of sorts and get something started.

You can hear Dubstep most nights of the week in Bristol, be it a full Dubstep night, at a bar, or a an hour set at a Reggae/Dubstep/Jungle night. Leeds is big aswell, its not just healthy in London. Most of the UK has some idea of what it is.

East london too.
this area has a reputation for being really wanky and poncey
And it is true
But there are a select few of us who know the beats and are in to the riddm
And that is where the dubstep kicks in.
I live about 50metres from plastic people. How fucking nice is that. FWD. is like going from the living room to the kitchen to get another dragon stout.
