So.. My name is Yuri, and I'm from Latvia, near Baltic Sea. I love dubstep from 2010 year, many will think that I am brostep kid etc, but I really got into dubstep, last year i've discovered that this is really my music, long time I was trying to promote dubstep as itself in Latvia, and I had success with that, around 35000 downloads of mixes etc.

At the end of the year 2010, I was playing a bit with fruity loops, didn't knew all this software yet, and so on, but I made my first track, than in producing "career", I took big break, and started to produce again in 2011, August, after my birthday party - I don't know how these events are equal to each other, but that happened after my birthday. I wasn't so good at all, but than came September, and I was spending most of my time to make music I love, and now I even wan't to release my album, 2 tracks to finish.

P.S. Sorry for my bad english.

Newest track:
Soundcloud

I will be releasing album on 9th December 2011, I don't know - will it be independent or it will be signed on label, time will show, now I'm searching for label :)

Hope you enjoy my music :)

Peace to ya'll dubheadz!

and jsut to re-iterate. you've been producing properly since august of this year and you're looknig to release an album, and you only have 2 tracks left. so between now august/september and now you have produced a certain amount of tracks that you consider of album quality.
big dreams kid!

i've lsitened to the one track you mentioned, yes, it sounds good, but before releasing an album surely its best to get yourself well known in the dubstep scene. i.e drop a couple of tunes, maybe a 4 track LP. then when you've got the buzz aronud your name and a label to back you then drop an album.

I know.. But how to fckin do that? :(
Guides not helping ;/
Easiest way would be to be in contact with some big names, for example - like Kill The Noize has done, I didn't knew who the fuck he is, before he made collaboration with Skrillex and KoRn.

send your tracks to djs, don't get off put if they don't reply. if they like em they will play. i was reading an interview with joker, who said he sent new tracks to plastician every week or something, eventually plastician siad oh yeah i like tihs, palyed it and boom look where he is now.

Kill The Noise have been releasing tunes since at least 2007, so it's not like they've 'suddenly' appeared on the scene.

i hated your dubstep but the DnB track was great. btw "dopestep" and "epicstep" are NOT genres or even acceptable ways to describe music
