Dude! What the HELL are you talking about?!!?!?!?! Everyone knows that Denver is responsible for the genesis of every so called 'UK-urban' music scene there's been since 1643. Christ, I'm surprised you even know how to tie your shoe laces.



EDIT: Sorry, it's been a long day.

I agree with this statement fully.
Also i find it funny how 'naked' by shackleton (dont me wrong i think both the drop and Skull Disco are killer) is used to illustrate a dubstep bass drop, when shackleton has never said he was dubstep (i do think he is tho) and plays a sound quite removed from the average dubstep sound.
Finally i think the Exodus night in Leeds should be added as well in the 'growth' section of the artical, for reasons which i think should be obvious. Just a mention would be fine no links need to be added, people should be intelligent enough to do that on their own behalf.
If reference is needed for that i think in an old issue of dj mag there is a fair few lines bigging it up, or the fact it is also the 'northern dmz'

I aint read this since it was 1st posted but i dont think im mentioned in it either. Considering i was one of the 1st dj & producers invloved with the scene what does it matter.

and how could there be no mention whatsoever on dubstep and it's direct relation to ladies straight dropping their panties???

thanks martyn, and yeah i appreciate the oddness of using a shackleton track there. bit of a personal bias cos he's one of the people really pushing the envelope imo, one of my favourite artists full stop let alone dubstep artists.

it is a massive drop though, isn't it?

cyrus, i've added you to list of dubstep artists, which is a compromise for the time being. really enjoyed from the shadows btw. also it's not an excuse to add everyone with a myspace page and no record deal to that page (notability in effect again). now all someone needs to do is write the random trio article...

i really want people from here to contribute to the article.

to that end, i thought an 'essential reading' list would be a good thing to post. at the moment, people seem to be of the mindset that one or two people 'own' the article. to make a really bad dubstep pun, no one is the gatekeeper

so contribute away! but PLEASE read these first:

notability
verifiability
no original research
neutral point of view
writing an article about yourself = bad idea.

Where's that Guardian article about how important Corpsey has been to the downfall of dubstep and western society in general?

And the mentioning of Angelina Jolie's tits

''DUBSTEP: ROOTS''

Corpsey invented dubstep in 2001 by farting onto the surface of a balloon while listening to Lee Scratch Perry. He passed El-B and Benny Ill a couple of balloons, a Lee Scratch Perry CD and a can of extra spicy beans two weeks later and history was made.
