Just wondering about this.
Do mastering engineers have the right (or is it possible to arrange something with them) to let you cut a dubplate of something that has come through their studio. Presumably they will be in contact with the artist so they could get permission for it. For example would it be possible to pay the normal price for a 12" dubplate at Transition and get a cut of Goblin say.
This is purely hypothetical, I'm not interested in doing it and I'm guessing they wouldn't be allowed anyway, I was just wondering if it was possible (it might be a way to get hold of some of those tasty rare dubs that won't get general release

).

they're about £5. 18" acetate, shaped like mala's head. if you whistle throught the hole in the middle it plays "jus a beat".

if they wanted to make sure that all their clients immediately fucked off to a different cutting house then yeah!

I was thinkin about how to get those unreleased dubs, and am I right in thinking that the only way you will ever get near them is if you know the producer?

I guess so. Only a handful of people have them, so the producers only give them to who they want to have them. Ah well thought it might be an idea

Do producers get the plates cut themselves and then hand them out? Or do they give their DJ homies a digital file that they can then cut if they want?
Just curious...

you send the producers the tracks and then it's entirely up to the DJ/producer if they want to get it cut.
I've heard that handing a DJ a dubplate is one of the worst things you can do because it just goes in the bag and then never played, where as send them a download link is less invasive..... just what i've heard though.

if you write your own tunes and get them cut to dub it brings the tune to the next level sound wise
u can really tell the difference between your digital version and the dub, and it is pretty sweet having your tune on a fresh dubplate

or go robbing.
I can see the news...
Underground Dance music artist Skream, best known for his song Midnight Request Line, has had his house regulary robbed every month, systematically. Mystery surrounds the case however as it only seems to be his record bag that is stolen every time...
BOOMsHaNKA!an interception!
.....But that’s always the chance you take.
