Might be wrong section, sorry 'bout that.

Warrior Dubz only came to my attention a day or two ago, realised I might have missed some essential listening first time around, how about listing some albums (solo or not) that no one should be without.

I'll start off just for the sake of it;

Plastician - Beg to Differ
Vex'd - Degenerate
Benga - Diary of...
Dubstep Allstars 1-7?
James Blake - s/t
MAH presents Warrior Dubz
Skream - Skream!

Burial - s/t
V/A - Grime II (kode9, DMZ, Loefah)

the rest should all still be fresh in your memories

Gonna have to say

Of course, how could I forget these? Definite listen for people interested in where the sound came from. Think when the Hotflush Back And Forth compilation comes out, that can be added to this list.

Deep Medi Releases Volume 1 CD
Horsepower Productions - In Fine Style
Kode9 & The Space Ape - Memories of the Future
Boxcutter - Oneiric

Have all been added to the need-right-now list, thread delivers already.

This could become a list of all the dubstep albums ever made but

Guido Anidea
Martyn Great Lengths
Shackelton et al Soundboy Punishments
Peverelist Jarvik Midstate

Pinch - Underwater Dancehall
Box of Dub 1 & 2
