been into drum'n'bass/jungle since 1995, ffollowed the bass through speed garage, 2step, breakstep, and then heard the one like joenice on gourmet beats radio with mc twisty toasting in january 2005. hit the first few dubwars at sputnik, been down ever since. the feeling is a lot like d'n'b was in 96-97.

Got bored of what I had been listening to. So I went up to Rooted and bought one of the Dubstep Allstars CDs. 5 mins later I've bust my car speakers but I'm very happy

My brother-in law played me Stagger by Skream and a few bits by Vex'd, I think it was the summer of 2006. The rest is history!

I was mixing DNB on ketamine in my room one night and I passed out on top of one of the records, slowing it down to a speed of about 20bpm. When I came to several minutes later, I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

For me it was a natural progression...I was into Jungle, then D&B, then I used to play dark UK Garage, like Zed Bias, Oris Jay, Ghost etc... on a couple of pirates, and slowly slowly....BANG!! Dubstep was there...

The rest is history.

This,

In 2006 Tayo ruled the 'in new dj's we trust' show on bbc as I was really into nu skool breakbeat. I heard him play Skream - Dutch Flowerz mixed with Rusko - Hornz Cru.. after that I was hooked.
