Yes and no.

there's one tune, name escapes me, that really is a perfect example of 'proto-dubstep'.
would that be stereotyp ft. tikiman 'jahman'?

haven't we learnt that things don't 'just happen' yet? things evolve, mutate, influence, get interpreted etc. drawing lines in the sand as starting points is arbitrary.

Already done this a couple of times.....
Dubstep Roots - What are yours? The debate...
I put it to you that Muslimgauze invented Dubstep in 1995

Re: Stereotyp, some of his early instrumental remixes like Juryman's The Ethiopian, Keen by Microfish (and their later collaboration Who Me) & Question by Fauna Flash were more influential for me than the My Sound LP- which is great, but I wish he'd done some dubs of those sweet tracks that were completely ruined by cheesy vocals!

good call, but are you sure about the '92 part?
i find that hard to believe seeing as this tracks fit perfectly in the sound of bitasweet around that time (2002) + the production seems to be better than 4hero's first R records... however i gotta give it to you that with dego anything is possible

on a side note, i read on the omniverse board that dego is now trying to make us believe he is not Nutmeg

It was the music written for a film released in the early 90s called Exotica, i've heard the vocals used in some actual dubstep tracks too.
