freq nasty on the buttons and I thought 'ez!! bit of DS' when i first heard it

hey whineo

yeah i guess yr right.

when i first heard the track i thought - hey here some vocal dubstep goodness - but then when i tried to mix it in its like 10bpm slower or something!! but you can make it work.

and yeah i know freqnasty has been in that zone sonically for over a decade but i would hesitate to class him as a dubstep producer - i mean i would LOVE IT if he made some dubstep - but i think he is still on that breaks/dubstep fringe....

anyway. Yeah, its definitely a debatable one - which i guess i spend about half my life looking for!

stuff on the edges of the genres is always the most interesting to me

Wasteland (DJ Scud + I-Sound)... essentially proto dubstep but I doubt many know about this act.

I love mixing booty bass / juke with dubstep.. for the latter DJ Slugo has some awesome tracks: http://myspace.com/djslugo

A dubstep refix of 'Pure Evil' would be immense

i used to buy techno records, and a lot of my drum track tunes fit in real nice. i have a bunch of old 4x4 (the label) that works really well, and even some oliver lieb/lsg. it's still really good music and adds a pretty good dynamic to a dubstep mix

AC/DC - Thunderstruck
you have to speed it up a tad, but it works!

Proper bassy tune

I've just started getting into The Cool Kids, some really good stuff. Is that tune around 140 bpm?

I'm not dropping any names but there are a handful of Björk tunes that go really well with the dub and the steps
