your beats are great

The birds is heavy, any chance of a 320? Cartainly will give it a play

Also, the dub in dubstep comes from the dub basslines which jungle and garage adopted. This is where El-B, horsepower and Mala etc got their inspiration from

Loads of that stuff about, Hessle Audio, Apple Pips, Hemlock, Punch Drunk, Tectonic, to name but a few decent labels.

Although if you want directly dub inspired stuff, Mungo's Hi Fi & RSD are big in the game.

* the godfathers of the scene skream, burial, and whoever thinks they're legendary will stop caring about the music and care about being a 'big name' getitng lots of £££$$$, appearing on flyers that the teens at the time will recognise as being "dubstep legends"

*the music will some how become formulated and all sounding the same (allready begining to happen)

* you'll have adverts on tv for "dubstep 2006-2008 the CLASSICS' avaliable at Tescos

*you'll have very bad remakes of 'classic 06-08 dubstep' in here AND/OR [insert new musical genre here] remixes of 'classic 06-08 dubstep'

* if youtube is still going in 2020, we'll be the ones with the grey hair commenting: "it isn't like it used to be, i remember the days of 06-08, everything after was shit, these teenagers don't know shit!!"

I think you need a hobby mate

i hate it when people say

"music genre" is dead

death is a state that cant really be applied to something that was never alive

jonnyrebel · Post by **jonnyrebel** » Mon Jun 08, 2009 9:28 pm

its not dead its just 90% shit at the moment. Nothing is getting released

and the stuff you want to play you cant even play at a dubstep rave anymore

because people demand 26 basslines and not broken note, shackleton, ikonika, marlow, reso etc

you can't even play a lot of older stuff now to the post caspa/rusko/chase & status crowd because to them dubstep is something different to where it began

exactly... even in bigger raves the crowd just isnt into the same thing anymore. Although if the techno sound gets a lot tougher its onto a winner imo. Headhunter and pinch still smash the clubs for me

All Im gonna say is Im glad I live in Bristol, and all you DJs should play what the fuck you want to play.

Jonnyrebel, check out the b side to the new Compound One release

Dark techy 4x4 shit. Last time I saw Headhunter in Bristol he played almost a full set of his own 4x4 140 stuff, had to convince the guy ravin next to me it was actually dubstep! Doubt he'd do that to the wobble crowds elsewhere unfortunately. Fucking heavy though, thats my kinda ravey dubstep for sure.

jonnyrebel · Post by **jonnyrebel** » Tue Jun 09, 2009 4:27 pm

hessel audio and yes definately feeling that compound release. I have sooo much time for the tough 4x4 stuff, it just seems like people are more consistant with the production as well as the actual tune.

Wigflex also gets my vote everytime
