how do you get your dubstep from your ears to your computer?

[MissInk]

i've been able to find discographies of the big names like Rusko and Emalkay, but there's a huge amount of DJ's who's shit i can't seem to find anywhere. like i reeeeeally want to get all the Doctor P i can to play around with in traktor, but i'm having the hardest time finding him anywhere on this great wide webz.

where do you get your dubstep from? is there like a secret site that i'm missing?

I go to a record shop...


but online wise;
redeyerecords.co.uk for vinyl
boomkat.com / Bleep.com / junodownload.com / beatport.com for wavs

a lot o stuff is unreleased though

i second boomkat.com for mp3s / wavs. i buy a lot from Beatport, too.

if youre trying to buy vinyl, id suggest googling Gramaphone Records in Chicago - they've got a pretty decent dubstep bin and if you're stateside it might be cheaper than buying from juno or any of the UK record shops.

or try Discogs - theres not a lot of American sellers, but you might get lucky.

I think you have it backwards... Dubstep does not come out of ears. You have it on your computer if you are posting here. Try taking it from your computer and feeding it into your ears. [use a 1/4 inch stereo plug, make sure you stick the plug all the way into your favorite ear canal]

record shops! its beens said before.

if you're living in the UK, go to www.chemicalrecords.co.uk
the best one in my opinion, better than redeye etc

lol.

I imagine you'll probably just end up ignoring every saying GOTO TEH RECORD SHOPZ! In that eventuality, TorrentTech has pretty much every dubstep release - but you do need an invite.

Soulseek is another good bet (p2p).

Thats not good advice at all, homie. If you wanna be a good DJ and spin quality stuff, stick to the record shops and online sites (beatport,bleep,boomkat.com etc.) you dont wanna have low quality baffoonery pumpin outta your speakers. spend a little money to make money.

as for VINYL? I have to agree with http://www.chemical-records.co.uk they often have a lot shit thats sold out in other spots.
