track suggestions for newbies

Post by 2nd_son » Thu Dec 03, 2009 7:41 pm

[first time poster]

I've been listening to dubstep for the past year and a half now - maybe a little more - and it drives me crazy that it's not played in the college city I live in (Columbus, OH; home to Ohio State University). I'm thinking about making two different CDs with dubstep tracks to pass around the city, see if any coffee shops, record stores or hookah bars will play them around here. Although, I still feel new to the sound, and don't know that many dubstep bangers (barely any clubs in Ohio play dubstep, so my only knowledge of it comes from digging tracks on iTunes mainly). So I was wondering if anyone here could give me any suggestions on what tracks would be best to present the dubstep sound to a mainstream city.

The main tracks I have so far:
Chase & Status - Eastern Jam
Ital Tek - Wind Tunnel
Wu-Tang Clan - Let's Get It (Evol Intent remix)
Wu-Tang Clan - Love Don't Cost a Thing / Still Grimey (Nebulla & Dore remixes)
The Game feat. Lil Wayne - My Life (Chimpo remix)

I figure the best way to turn dubstep on to new people would be to find remixes of pop songs, so if you know any dope remixes, that'd be cool too.
I was trying to find Rusko's Katy Perry "I Kissed a Girl" remix, but I don't think it's out yet.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Peace.

You could obviously post tracks that crossover to the mainstream in England. :)
For example: Benga & Coki - Night
Skream - Midnight Request Line

I am a huge fan of the filthier side of dubstep,
but i don't think it would be as accessible to someone who's never heard of the genre

just trying to get a diverse list (not posting only "pure" dubstep here):

Pangaea - "Memories"
Silkie - "Planet X"
Clubroot - "Embryo"
Burial - "Versus"
The Bug - "Insane"
El-B - "Buck & Bury"
Jamie Vex'd - "Radiant Industry"
Shackleton - "You Bring Me Down"
2562 - "Enforcers"
Untold - "Dante"
Sully Shanks - "Give Me Up"
Twisted - "Contact"

maybe toss in some Breakage - "Morning Star" or summat.
whatever tho this list goes on and on.
could keep posting shit for 3 years, so you'll figure it out soon enough and find your own sound of dubstep that fits you the best ;)
