Don't let the crap name put you off. This is really interesting atmospheric stuff. Adds a different vibe to some well known tunes,

worst name ever. the thinking being, how can we turn off potential listeners the fastest way possible....hmmm, let's combine death with another hyped up genre of the moment. We all like moody music, but will you ever find 300 people to come out and support a deathstepper event? If I've never heard of deathstep before, and I see it on a flyer, am I going to be able to call up my girl and say...hey..will you come out to the deathstep night with me?

Just my 2cents. I'm a big fan of rock, and heavy metal, so don't blow a fuse over me being a bit skeptical.

lol init.

llllllow it tbh.

ive never really been into rock and heavy metal, maybe the odd track here n there...

but i like stuff that distance does, but i think thats as far as it can go.

lets keep it dancey and skankable.

Alright everyone calm down! It's just a very occasional night in Oslo that a couple of dudes with backgrounds in weird-rock decided to do because they were asked. Noone is ever gonna invite them to play at Fabric or Ministry of Sound - It doesn't mean the end of dance music. Carry on enjoying your Prodigy and emotionless purist Dubstep for girls, I dont think there's gonna be a Deathstep English invasion anytime soon.

I downloaded "DEATHSTEP MIX # 1 - BLÅ, OCTOBER 4th 2007" - listening to it right now. There's some great moments and some very cheesy ones too. Was hugely stunned to hear the track "Ghosty" by Isabella Azaroff lurking in the background - a track which I thought no-one really knew about, created as it was by an eight-year-old girl for a school project. For some reason though it's credited to 'Da Hip Hop Rascals'.

How about Scorn?

I still remember the chill that crept up my spine when I heard John Peel play Scorn's "Night Tide" back in the early 90s. Great that they're still doing good things.

I'd love to hear some Nadja stuff remixed by dubstep producers, personally.
you seen this:

Nadja : Alien In My Own Skin (Vex'd RMX 4b)

its on this Lo Dubs comp:
Analog Clash : mixed by 6Blocc

no melodies.
no harmonies.
no rhythm.
no bullshit.

Shit, there you go! Cue Martin Clark and Simon Reynolds blogging about the dilution of Dubstep and their nostalgia for 2-Step etc etc.... Now I'm gonna call up my chick and asked her if she wants to come to a Drugstep night with me.

There was Venetian Snares' Black Sabbath dubstep remix too. That was funny.
