To my knowledge, dubstep has yet to be played by any dj in Seoul. Because of this, when I play out, I want to make sure that I give the crowd the quintessential dubstep; the pure, concentrated essence and embodiment of dubstep in one mix. What tunes would you include in such a mix?

Pinch - Qawwali
Skream - Midnight Request Line
Skream - Angry / Traitor
Digital Mystikz - Haunted / Anti War Dub
Digital Mystikz - Neverland
Cay's Crays - Fat Freddy's Drop (Digital Mysitkz remix)
Loefah - Mud
Loefah - Horror Show
Skream - I (Loefah remix)
Distance - Fallen


10 recent classics, you should be able to buy all of them on either vinyl/mp3.

My first dubstep purchase right there. Didn't know it was dubstep at the time, just thought it was a choooone. Still sounds fresh to my ears.

Anything on Hyperdub/Tempa or DMZ and you can't go far wrong

Knowledge - Toasty (Hotflush). This tune just gets better with time and it was great to start with.

The very most qunintessentialist riddim, for me, is Ancient Memories by Mystikz, not the rmx. Stunning track. I wish it were played more.

Digital Mystikz - Anti War Dub
Loefah - System

Juju - Punks

Skream - Dutch Flowers (Probably one of the best when played at a club)

I don't know what the dance music scene is like at all in S. Korea, is there much DnB or House or Techno or Breaks or anything?

Good luck you sound like a true frontline pioneer. Tell us how everything goes.
