Rites of Spring by Stravinsky - using minor seconds in the bass part was the original orchestra equivalent of the reese

Or whichever caveman found the bass log and started hittin it

Exactamundo!

Check the 'My Sound' LP from a few years back. I heard Stereotyp waaaay before I heard dubstep being termed as dubstep so to speak. Hughly influential producer imo. Also you NEED to check Al Haca

Mr Oizo's Flat Beat is a good shout mind! I've got a wicked mashup of that & Capleton's 'Tour' on dub

Sterotyp was just doing his take on dancehall though, no?

Yes and no.

there's one tune, name escapes me, that really is a perfect example of 'proto-dubstep'. And to me, it sounds like an intentional mixing of styles/sounds, as opposed to a one-off chance thing that would eventually end up becoming a genre of its own further down the line.

I'd also volunteer This Ain't Tom & Jerry by Cousin Cockroach - came out on Bitasweet in 2002 but apparently written about 10 years early. Not really dubstep I guess, but way ahead of its time and certainly fits in somewhere.

What about "Black Puppet" by Groove Chronicles? It contains virtually all the elements of today`s sound -

Sterotyp made a heavy LP. Thanks to Conspira for enlightening me

would that be stereotyp ft. tikiman 'jahman'?

haven't we learnt that things don't 'just happen' yet? things evolve, mutate, influence, get interpreted etc. drawing lines in the sand as starting points is arbitrary.

welcome along though
