Global Steps is finally coming out???? We signed up "Backwater Dub" 2 years ago, before we'd solidified the Sub Swara naming plan. Koli Stance isn't on there but there's some fantastic, fantastic deep dubstep on that comp. Couple of tunes that fell thru the cracks, as well, should hopefully get a 2nd chance.

I signed one of my old tunes to it would be good if it ever came out!

tbf, drum & bass as an idea is silly, dubstep is a bit of an odd name too, and I daren't even open the can of worms that is 'w*nky'...

a name is just a name, if it helps people talk about things and understand each other then it will have to do. Not everyone knows about loads and loads of different types of music from other countries and cultures.

Highland Spring always reminds me of Brick Lane; Peoples Culture meets Music Culture.

they dont have to know loads of names i agree.
But "world" is just plain ignorance though. Putting all music that isnt western in one catorgrey because it isnt "western" is wrong.

You do have to credit those trailblazers Horsepower for adding both an Eastern/South Asian and also the cinematic samples edge. However, it should be noted that Jamaican dub masters like Augustus Pablo and Mad Professor have also incorporated African, South Asian and other world influences into their music. But truthfully, dubstep is the ultimate of fusions: its jagged-half step beats owe something to Timbaland, who in turn was sampling Lata Mangeshkar etc...hindipop, bhangra etc..., but it owes to dub that gets its percussion elements from Africa and the Caribbean. Not to mention global music of all kinds is reaching a larger audience. Cultures influencing each other non-exclusively as far as I can see.

Timbaland dubstep??? On the furthest page on dsf?

its wicked when people start using different samples than the norm for something as strict with its formula as dubstep is, keeps it interesting, but the trend seems to be that world music means asian a lot of the time

There must be lots of good of dubstep tracks with samba or south american samples?
