Dubstepcoin

In the ever-exploding alternative cryptocurrency shadow markets, there once existed such a coin. Then it had some bugs and went away for awhile. Then it overcame all obstacles to return, except this time nobody cared. This story took place back in the uncertain days of January 2014. I was going to w...

Re: THE NEW STEP // 2003 early Dubstep and Grime Documentary

Not sure if any of you have heard this but I gave it an upload to youtube ;) old BBC Radio 1 documentary from 2003 exploring the emergence of 8-bar Grime and Dubstep from the UK Garage scene in London. and what's better than a 17 year old Benga making a Grime beat on Playstation music 2000. "1...

Re: Mixdown help request for hiphop dubstep track

TRy this though for now. I had to completely push the phase of the vocal to the edges of the mix to go for a somewhat stereo vocal. If I had the dry vocals I could slot them right in the middle and it would sound awesome but right now the vox you gave is too wet with effects. So... I know its been ...

Bassweight excerpt: dubplates, masters and mastering

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTOhlvWNpiA I thought it was pretty cool to see how dubplates actually got cut... But I have a question for you linguistic afficionados: so its true that "dubplates" are specifically masters with microscopic defects? I always thought they were just one-off p...

Finally listened to the Silkie & Quest Outlook Festival set, amazing set list. Quite possibly my favorite podcast of the year, but I'm always about 2 months behind. Highly recommended if you prefer your bangers smooth & classy: http://www.getdarker.com/audio/podcasts/silkie-quest-outlook-fes...

Re: whats the worst djing experience youve ever had?

wtf is an airport rave? Like, a rave in an actual functioning airport with the public coming in and going out of flights as the rave is going down? :corntard: Hah! That would have been much more interesting. Instead I'm just referring to this industrial area of town adjacent to the airport. We did ...

Re: whats the worst djing experience youve ever had?

Watching clusters of 15-18 y/o's do entirely too much MDMA at an airport rave, wondering man how the hell are they ever going to make it past minimum wage. Totally sweat-ridden, zombified, overtly sexual and sloppified beasts of young people. There's definitely an age you shouldn't do that drug befo...

Re: Pinch & RSD in Nigeria collab

it's the good version ;-) love that compilation, especially the tune "Ohye Atar Gyan" stands out for me. not on the web apparently I like the version that Homeboy Sandman played on Gilles Peterson's show a while back -- it sounds a lot like this one but I don't think they're the same tune...

I am talking specifically about a chronologically-arranged collection of some of the definitive originators of the genre, AKA Coki, Mala...

Mixdown help request for hiphop dubstep track

Howzit all, I could really use some help doing a proper mixdown using an mp3-sourced, plugin-mastered instrumental with a pretty clean vocal WAV. I gave it my best shot and put it on SoundCloud (you can also download it thru there), but I'd be really appreciative if anybody wanted to take it upon th...
