He still does, he hasn't produced any dubstep to date that's unless you subscribe to the anything '140bpm with bass' way of thinking.
A few of his beats have been included in mixes from notable producers/dj's within the scene though.

Wreckage, Three Crows & Thug by Maniac would all fall into the grey area.
Phat Pat i'm not sure what mix you mean but if it's the one from May 2006 the following still produce Grime.
Terror Danjah - has just released Zip Files Vol. I a collection of instrumentals from himself, D.O.K, Loudmouth and Swindle from the Aftershock era.
Spyro - Still very much a part of the grime scene i heard he is producing some funky to.
Jammer - Albeit sporadically. His made/making a funky album with C.Gritz (also of Neckle Camp) as well.
Wiley
Scratchy - His started to make funky as well under the name Johnny Skeng
Rossi B & Luca - Dubstep/Grime their on it.
Geeneus produces funky now and has just put out an album. Imperial not a clue? Haha

Lots of grime producers are trying funky, but there's still far more who aren't. The main focus is now mixtapes and mix CDs. Check

would love to hear some new alias stuff, although it probably wont happen..
Jon E Cash used to smack it although i think most of the heads are on funky now, as already stated...
Aftershock used to kill it...that label was too deep..who knows about BIG E D
also Wonder still makes dubstep, check his new mix here Myspace.com/djwonder

At the moment I'm feeling
DOK
Maniac
Rude Kid
DVA
Dot Rotten
Check out the Earth 616 Samplers on Logan Sama's label for some 12" action. He is apparently going to release about 12 x 12" this year of instrumental EP's for the DJ's. I'm hoping for more grimey dubstep this year as well I love it when they cross over.

Most grime producers are all still about, if your looking for released stuff then, browse,
www.uptownrecords.com
www.ukrecordshop.com
www.avalanchemusichut.com
www.mixingrecords.com
www.grimestore.com
Grime is also a scene, where producers would rather keep their stuff to themselves, and never release it....

Capital J suggested to me to look under U.K. hip-hop for grime tunes. We had the same discussion about the lack of new grime..... I haven't followed his lead yet, but I'm sure you can find stuff. I just saw an advert for a new grime cd called " ministers of grime" I'll get back with a link...........peace!
