Eighteen put together this mix for Drowned in Sound as part of their 10 years of ... Dubstep week. Probably missing a few obvious tracks but pretty dope nonetheless:

Info and download: http://drownedinsound.com/in_depth/414073125 Tracks, then, is an attempt to put together a mix that encompasses as many of the genre’s myriad shifts as possible, over the course of an hour. It’s never going to be comprehensive, and there are doubtless gaping holes where individual artists and sounds ought to be, but the aim is to provide a mostly chronological map of its development – all the way from the dark garage of El-B and Horsepower Productions to the many hybrid forms battling for attention today. It splits in two towards the middle and heads off in a techno heavy direction first, before reaching the simultaneous development of synth-driven hybrids like Ikonika and Joker. In 2010 these threads are converging again, with Joy Orbison, Scuba and Brackles reaching for new heights of assimilation and compositional nous.
