Benga's album on Benga Beats, the two Grime compilations on Rephlex... Horsepower productions and the Tempa mixes.

I think thats about it for albums at the moment.

Maddslinky is somewhere between 2-step and D&B,
but i wouldn't call it Dubstep... far too light on the bass.

Same goes for Phuturistix - they're more like pioneers
of the broken beat scene (sort of 2-step / nu-jazz).


excellent albums all the same. 8)

i dunno man, that Maddslinky LP might be a bit broken, but it's still pretty 2steppy. it's got that swing...

And where is Dave Jones?

Anyway, I'd have to agree that both the Maddslinky and Phuturistix albums aren't strictly dubstep, but they are within 6 degrees (probably more like 2) of separation - in that hazy realm of broken beat where it's not quite like anything else.

That said, they're both killer albums and if you wanted to start a night off in fine style (haha - pun completely intended), broken beat could lead into full on dubstep nicely if done right.

Exactly. 2 degrees of separation is where my mind was at, too. And hazy's gotta be right -
My Maddslinky album's ended up in my D&B folder, out of pure indecision! :)



These days I'd mix Phuturistix with the likes of Bugz In The Attic, Mark de Clive Lowe, Jazztronik
& all that. Which is another scene I'm hugely into, but I (mentally at least) keep them separate.
