Need Recommendations for Early Dubstep Tracks

Post by hiat » Sat Nov 20, 2010 5:27 am

I'm playing an event in a couple months in which the promoter wants early dubstep tracks to be played. I've been a vinyl DJ for 12 years and got into dubstep about three years ago. I'm looking for some tunes that kinda marked the beginning of dubstep from dub tunes. Obviously I will be downloading these tunes (if possible) since I can assume most older tunes are out of print and I'll be using Serato or whatever software my tag partner is using for the event. Any recommendations are much appreciated.

who is the promoter?
why is he/she getting you to play other than you usually do...
to educate you or meet their own tastes?
presumably you play tearout usually...

anyway:
Benny Ill & Dinesh On tha Run
Mark One Sholay
D1 Warning
Kode 9 Swarm
Caspar Cockney Flute
DJ Hatcha Conga Therapy

all on vinyl & all from round 04 to 06

- It's what the promoter wants for the event. He has his reasons for wanting this so I'm gonna do my best to cater to that. There's a couple other old school sets going down for this too but it's not necessarily an old school party. I'm sure that he wants this set to educate the crowd on early dubstep - not for him or myself. The theme of the set is called "Origins of Dubstep" in which I'm tagging with another DJ.

No - I typically play the deep stuff (DJG, F, Headhunter, Madd, Scuba, etc) Tearout material only comes out if necessary.
