at a rave in a warehouse, trippin dick on 2 doses of some bomb as blotter, tagging a wall, ignoring the techno, and BAM the bass starts rattling the shit out of the tin walls, i look over and there is this little dude in this crazy getup, wearing a gasmask with striped socks on his arms, with his set up pulled into the middle of the dancefloor area, with all kinds of equipment turning knobs and pushing buttons, playing a live p.a. dubstep set.

later found out this guy is called Zapper from north Cali, cool moddafucka.

anyways, the first track he played was called "Krishna Kush" i believe, great piece of music.

i'd like to hear that

Probably the same as loads of people.

Midnight Request Line on Skream's myspace two and bit years ago.

Heard a few of Skream's tracks off his Skream! album... thought they were cool... bassy... but thats about it. Wasn't until I heard Skream's June 2007 Essential Mix that I fell in love. Still one of my favourite dubstep mixes tbh.

To top it off, hearing Skream's set (and any other dubstep for that matter) played on pK's village speakers at Shambhala 2007 basically engrained dubstep into my soul from there on... only to happen again and again at Sham 08, 09.

Bahl Forward, Rufage amongst a loada grime on my mates mp3 and tinny speakers whilst blazing in a graveyard, maybe about 06-07 was still more into jungle and dnb back then.

down my local record shop , which is now shut . i knew nothing about dubstep or what it was the owners son was in there im down there buyin my usual drum n bass and he showed me a dubstep tune i didnt like it i sed it was too slow and how can u dance to this and he told me you need to hear it in a club the warm bass around ya it makes the atmosphere what eva he played me was really dark and deep but to this day i will neva know what he played me

used to spend a lot of time on the independance website listening out 4 tunes, and just clicked on 'skream - midnight request line' randomly.even wearing headphones i was instantly intrigued by the sound, but the mix that really hit me were the dubstep cuts in plasticians 06 mix.after then, hooked

in june 2007


i had been up all night on pills

went from a club str8 to the airport to go on holiday with all my mates


on the plane there my mate shows me warrior dubz (the m.a.h cd)


and slowly started getting into the murk


best plane journey ever

Other than hearing Skreams - Midnight Request Line being used in various things like that Souljaboy remix. I would have to say the first time I heard a dubstep track and was like "HOLY FUCK, WHAT IS THIS!!" was when one of my friends was DJing and threw down Bar 9 - Untitled Symphony/ Murda Sound.

on some boat docked on the river thames ages ago, with orien headlining, bass made the boat rock... too sick, first live night, been stepping for longer though

Couple years ago; went to a Playaz night at Fabric, walked into the second room where there was this guy called 'Skream' and he was playing this stuff called 'dubstep'

walked in and just went "woah"

since then its been like a heroin addiction

And also barefiles.com (before they 'sold out'). Wow, they had the greatest mixes ever, XI's mix was "Barefile mix of the week" or something, and a Viral Radio show featuring U Dub b2b T-Mus b2b Myrkur b2b + b2b Èw00t (27-Jan-2008) in SWEDISH, a language I don't even SPEAK!
Sigh, nostalgic times... Still have them; in my iPod, here's the tracklistings

Viral Radio is dutch . Aswell all the djs in that mix.

Yea, I know. I always fail to remember =\

some one showed me midnight request line on their ipod, rest is history

Skream & Distance - Bahl Fwd, i was like.. whaaa! bought a sub.. rest is history

Hijak - Babylon Timewarp (roots dedication mix)

1989 - Club Strawberry(Miami bch)owned by Luke F of 2 live crew taught me what bass music was. Never looked back.

I heard Skream on a shithouse car stereo in 2007 and did not really take to it. I heard Scorn's Stealth Album last year and loved it, which led onto dubstep. I moved onto Loefah, Vex'd and the likes from there. I appreciate Skream quite a bit more now, with tracks like Filth who couldn't.

Bread Get Bun By Rusko And Caspa What A Fucking Tune!

I Was Round My Mates At A Party And He Put It On I Heard Of Drum And Bass Before But Not Dubstep It Was Like An Orgasm To The Ear

Listening to Radio 1 over t'interweb when living in Vancouver in 2006 and hearing MAH's Dubstep Warz while making some dinner (when I say dinner, I mean mixing bowl full of frosties and milk cos I was too baked too see straight )

Couple of days later, Rogue State hooked me up with some free tunes and been hooked ever since.

my first experiance was at a playaz night @fabric about 2/2.5 years ago. i had wondered into room 3 after getting a tad lost and just heard this mental sound oooozing out the walls and floor. this was my first glimpse at dubstep. ive got no idea who was on the decks though.

after this, i met up with the people id lost and explained my discovery. no one had heard of it but we did some research the next day and found out that it was dubstep.
