Female singers in Dubstep

In my opinion nothing sounds better and more sexy than a beautiful voice singing over a filthy tune. Perfect example, Belle Humble. For those of you that don't know, she's the voice from Freestylers "Cracks" and more recently 501's "Headrush". Absolutely perfect voice for dubstep. :4: You guys got any preferred singers in EDM right now?

The most beautiful voice I've ever heard in EDM has been "Savvy" some un-named girl who only ever works with canadian producer Ben Sage (Drum & Bass)...





[/video]

She's never worked with anyone else and I over the years I've never been able to find out anything else about her... Not even on Discogs...

She does have a really good voice Ketamine! I've never heard of Ben Sage either, but he's pretty good. :)

I don't know why but any dubstep with female vocals in it repulses me.

hmmm

i don't really like the whole angelic/squeaky thing a lot of people have going, gotta have some personality and depth



im also not a fan the bizarre love affair people have with putting squeaky/angelic vocals over "filth", it don't work in metal and it don't work here imo. "go away" by katy b remains one of my favourite tunes pretty much ever, allow filth

those tracks you mentioned in the OP though are... not my thing :|

like wiener that much eh? :lol: I'm kiddin. That surprises me though. That's one thing I can honestly say, I don't see how you couldn't like it, it goes perfectly with it and adds a new layer of inflection and tension as the beat progresses. I can't stand it when theirs TOO much singing though, THAT'S annoying. Don't get me wrong though, I love a lot of dub without any singing or voices at all, but when a good producer and good singer come together it's fuckin beautiful! :i:

Sorry about that then. :oops: As you can see, I wasn't here 6 months ago and it just seemed like a good topic to discuss since I didn't see it.

I figure she must be either his sister or wife/gf and he's protective... I remember us outright asking him on DOA Forum before and he never addressed it...
