That 'first' Dubstep song that got you into the genre?

we had this thread so many times but it's always fun to reminesce

but it was kokney thug at the time it was released. such a feel! so weird cuz it was something totally new. i had never heard anything even remotely like it. i was totally unfamiliar with garage or dnb so i had never even head wobble bass or anything befor that tune. shit was mindblowing. it was also fun cause at least here a few knew what dubstep was so i had this thing "of my own", which has always been a big thing for me in music, at least when i was younger. to have your "own ting"

Not the first tune I heard, but the one that made me want to find more.

Ramadanman - Blimey.

I think it was Twissup? I didn't know the tune at the time had heard it on a 2005 mix from Youngsta at FWD>>. Was sold instantly though.

Skream - Dub Period and Dutch Flowers, both featured on the Dubstep Allstars vol. 4 compilation which was one of the first dubstep records I got a hold of

Joker & Rustie - Play Doe was also a big one for me early on

Love all three of them still!

first dubstep tune i heard was either rubber chicken or anti-war dub. i heard some dnb dj play anti war dub and my mate showed my fabric live 37 must be 6 or 7 years ago now

actually yeah this for me too, Rubber Chicken was the first dubstep tune I ever heard which I thought was pretty cool because it sounded like really lazy/stoned dnb, my mate then lent me Fabriclive 37, by the time it got to Girl From Codeine City I was 100% sold.

yh tbh it was all of fabriclive 37 but girl from codeine city was definitely my favourite

I was pretty late to the game, being a young un. I had been listening to some tear-out brosteppy rubbish, but I remember hearing this on Rinse before it came out and thinking "This is it." I texted in asking for ID but didn't get one, took me ages to find it.

Benga - 26 Basslines

Datsik - Gizmo & Havoc

Sukh Knight-Gangja Dub

These were the tunes that piqued my interest the most when i was first getting into it. From there I slowly started listening to Distance, Cluekid, Kromestar, Tunnidge and eventually Kryptic Minds..
