but i'm with ya, if there is somethin goin on down there i wanna know!

What about the UR lot? Some of the stuff I've heard from Suburban Knight recently is pretty dubstep-y.

D-town dubstep! Now that would be pretty special. Keep us updated on this one, Mr E Lansing.

Flat, Black, and Circular has dubstep? (I am assuming that is the shop you speak of)

There was some guy playing dubstep at the last Tech Itch show in Ann Arbor, that is all I know of so far.

Someone force Carl Craig to do a dubstep tune, that'd be sick.
Alternatively i could just continue to listen to the new Peverelist 12"

the 2-step/US garage flavour has infiltrated UR by the sounds of it...

probs about as close as you'll get to dubstep from these guys.

FBC indeed. they have a fairly decent chunk; at least more than i expected when i went in there last year.. and not just Tempa stuff. its still under the label "grime/broken beat" (though the dubstep now outnumbers the grime in that section) and planet mu has its own section, but its there.

I guess we will have to wait for the DEMF to see. I submitted my picks to someone who was asking about it for the festival. If they only choose one it will be large. My choices were Skream S&D Loefah and Kode 9 w/SpaceAPE.

detroit has always been a city that influences...well, just about everything.

motown and techno

those 2 things alone id say did more influencing than any of us could ever care to count in our lifetimes.
