Dis'n'Dat at Kaisaniemi Metro station (walk away from central railway station) also sells some Dubstep... not a huge selection but worth checking out!

really easy to find, selection has grown better and better!
but i think Lifesaver has the best selection of records..

Lifesaver is easy to find too, just hop on to the 3T-tram (from central railway station) and get of at "VIISIKULMA"-stop. (there are about 5 records shops near lifesaver, if your looking for jazz,reggae,soul,funk etc.

redrum's the club we have the hki parties in -- tonight is out in turku (another big city), at a music festival there ... going to be absolutely large.

redrum has really gone nuts recently. end of last year, pinch was putting down tune after quality to tune to about 60 guys, an absolutely desolate rosegarden. couple of months before, n-type played to 100 or so, if that. not 4 months later, chef's smacking the shit out of it, and the entire place is absolutely heaving, cannot move around for love nor money. every dance since then has been ramjam. big tings happening now, and an unstoppable vibe. :D

(not saying anything about pinch or type btw. great djs who came with great sets, just that not enough people came to see them.)

It's been really great to witness that ramjam effect fooishbar wrote about. Major vibes too! And big ups to all Step ahead crew, especially tes la, dead-o and all those who've been responsible for making it all this BIG! 8)

all hails to FOOISHBAR for making things roll so well up in here :D
thanks for the pictures!

all props goes to dead-o at first place, he brought dubstep to finland. after that its been spreaded by a bunch of people, mostly after dead-o we should thank tes la rok, dead kid, sire, roko, tmu, rpk/rrimöykk.. and the list goes on.

a big thank you goes out to the people who come to the partys and make them big everytime! with out "us" it would not work.. and no big names would be coming here to make us happy :)

its a family thing going on, and im proud of it! so lets keep it that way!?
