new to dubstep

Post by djslyde » Sat Jul 19, 2008 11:55 pm

hello,

although I'd heard about dubstep a while ago I've recently started to take a real liking to it through hearing the odd track dropped into drum n bass sets whilst out at various clubs/raves.

So I googled the word dubstep and this was the first link that came up. If anybody on here could just post general info in this thread for me about which artists dj's etc to look out for so that I can get a better feel for this great music and maybe incorporate it into my dj'ing it would be very much appreciated!!

thanks in advance

thanks for that! I sort of guessed there may be a few threads similar to this when I posted this and I apologise but I'm just a bit impatient! thats a good start for me anyway cheers!

I'm going to have a little nose around the rest of the forum, if anybody else would like to comment again it would be much appreciated...

digital mystiks, both coki and mala are pretty definitive in some of the styles of dubstep.

just listen to radio sets, u will hear the most variety with them.

Pistons classification of the differint types of dubstep is so true.
www.dubstep.fm has really helped me getting into dubstep, but it's kind of hard to of know who the names the artists and tunes are, but still there's hours of really nice dubstep there, which is always nice.
