Dubstep in your area...

is there a scene?

whats it like?

do people buy the stuff? is there a shop that stocks beats?

I'll start:

In west London there is hardly any scene - there is me, d1, soundproof, quiet storm heny g and a few other bods playin the game. I dont think there are any shops that stock the stuff either - its more breakbeat orientated - oh and broken beat.

Nuffin down my way...

Got no shops selling, no nights reppin, sweet foooccckkk all

BUT

I live 20mins from the heart of Dub so I dont mind getting on a train!

So apart from me and the studio guys we are all alone!

would be a joke to call it a "scene" over here (sweden). It´s minimal. Me and L-Wiz (BIG up matey!)...hehehe!

At least you got Wiz!

Without rubbing it in people's faces, Bristol seems to be really running things, there's countless people I know and respect doing thier thing in Bristol. The biggest dubstep night being Subloaded and smaller nights pushing dubstep and alike with bigger nights and a lot of dnb nights doing it in the second room.

A couple of good record stores stock beats like Rooted and Eat the Beat.

Pinch, Thinking, Blazey, DubBoy and Gutterbreakz are the first names that pop into my head.

I dont mind cos I dont have to travel to get to DMZ...BlackSheep n all dat

But Bristol is reppin it hard at the mo.

If anyone form here lives near Gatwick then lets get something done init!

Belgium is tiny...but growing I think...Bxl taking it strong withsome gigs last summer and a few things are lined up for the future...Vex'd amongst others coming down..

reckon it'll grow in the next year or so...

here in Hungary:
-cOp, Paragi Rudolf (my mate - he is offline), Ekaros (some tracks and forthcoming corporation maybe) and me...
-there was a Dubstep Party in Pecs by cOp with ElSid in April
-my radio-show
-some people show interest for the sound

Need some of that manz beatz

Fuck all going on round my way...but then im an hour on the train from London which is where i spend most weekends.

yeah, props to hungary! my mother is from budapest

here in switzerland there's plain nothing... no scene, no dj's playing this sound. and no shops with stock, so i just know this sound from countless heavy mixes (no money at the mo' for orders from boomkat).

even the heads who are deep in jungle/drum'n'bass just don't know what dubstep is all about - i was pretty disapointed when i found out.

sorry for my english...

init!

To be honest that and Destructive are the two nights I want to be able to hit, but can't

Missed Destructive had family issues BUT I'll all fired up for the next one. Bigup S&D N QS for that

DMZ is gonna be a killa cos it always is AND the Manni manz r in town again!

All about Rooted for me. I popped in Eat the Beat earlier this week for a look around but they didn't have much there. To be fair, the guy has tried stocking dubstep in the past but it ain't sellin'.

Replay on Park Street has a very small dubstep section too.

Blatantly, Bristol doesn't really have a big night like that (Subloaded is more akin to DMZ), that pushes the more breaky stuff.

Fortunately a new night Noir is kicking off, should be good fun, but another night would be more than welcome!

Nick - Yeah to be honest I don't really go in to ETB, I know a couple of people who have bought the odd release in there. But I guess it is more known for dnb, breaks and hiphop. Rooted is the shit anyway, if not just for the staff

as far as i know i'm the only one regulary playing dubstep on parties in poland
and as far as i know i'm the only polish dubstep producer
no shops, no records, no scene
but people are more and more enthusiastic about the sound on the parties - especially girls

Eindhoven, Holland

theres not much of a scene hier, But I'm trying to do sumthing about that.

theres a few hardcore fan's running around hier got 1 producer(and he's fliping good to,.. but there's no party's, radio's rather spin grime then dubstep.. & the grime Dj's only spin 1 or 2 dub's at raves

so U could say it's crap but it's geting beter..


I'm trying to get a party goning but theres no dutch dubstep dj's so if any of you UK dj's wanna cum by spin sum dub's smoke sum of the best weed for not a lot of cash

contact me at deepfreeze@wick-it.com

^^^I'll come ova^^^

Going ova in abit with Borg for some Dark FM thingy

Well over here in US there are pockets of the scene.
We all know the man like Joe Nice reppin Baltimore
Seckle is on the NewYork scene
Soul Champion crew out of Boston
Tha Megatron covering the west coast.

I think mostly there's the odd party/gig/radio going on there.

I'm between Boston and NY and have finally scored a monthly where I'll be playing along side local live acts like Psylab out of Boston and DJ's like DJ C from Mashit Records, again out of Boston.
I'm actually part of trying to set up a Low Power FM station here too - first legal pirate really - so as soon as thats up there will be a solid radio show.

It's happening, regardless of the size, that's the most important thing.

Big Up Everyone that's involved and pushing things fwd
