minimal dubstep

Post by yellowhighlighter » Wed Apr 22, 2009 12:26 pm

i'm kind of new to the dubstep genre. i'm primarily into hip-hop but have overtime become more into the musical part of it and obviously because of that was drawn to artists like j-dilla and now flying lotus and the like. i kind of like all sorts of electronic music and dubstep seems to be pretty popular nowadays and it's influence is kind of in a lot of hip-hop beats.

so obviously i've checked out the "wonky" dubstep artists and hyperdub and the like but i haven't come across much minimal dubstep. does it even exist?

all i've found is 2562 but that's really it.

are there any other artists like that or is there any other artists similar or anybody doing minimal dubstep themselves?

agree with the newer techy side of dubstep (martyn, 2562 etc).
but as already mentioned you should also check out stuff like

early (and some new) skream
dubstep allstars v.2 compilation
mala
kromestar
scuba
rephlex - grime 2 compilation

theres loads of minimal dubstep with a lot of energy in it

I'd nominate mid period Loefah and this, "Basic G" from Artwork in 2003, pretty much early dubstep crossed with Jeff Mills' Purpose Maker sound...
