I'm seconding all the Dubstep Allstars comps for sure, tons of get tracks on each of 'em. It's pretty helpful with all the varied artists to sift through when you find a track that's up your alley

check out Boxcutter - Oneiric and Rinse 06 (mixed by Plastician)

i listen to many genres of music. pop, rock, metal, hardcore, thrash, death metal, trance, alternative, soft rock, hard rock, classical, rap, rnb, dnb, dance and a f*** load more. i listen to a show on a radio station that plays all dubstep, experimental, and even what i can guess is ambient sounds of things nature and the like. so i am pretty sure i am already liking dubstep... :)

and all you cool kids thanks heaps for the suggestions!
that list is getting bigger and bigger, thats well enough stuff for me to check out haha

PEACE.

a personal favourite of mine is martyn's great lengths.

also, it might be a bit early to announce it a classic, since it only just came out, but jack sparrow - circadian. incredible music. full stop.

also, if the whole techy side of things tickles your fancy, then scuba's sub:stance mix is also top notch.

as for another undeniable classic (till now not mentioned i think), mary anne hobbes - warrior dubz. MUD VIP :o :o :o
