Bass. I love the stuff. If it was a bird, I'd probably marry the bitch.

1. Quiet Storm filling in for Jay Da Flex on 1Xtra one time. Amazing show.
2. Toasty - Knowledge. when it dropped i felt like i was coming up on a pill. total adrenaline rush...

the bass, the beats, the atmosphere, the feeling of the cold plastic dubstep vinyl rubbing up against my erect nipples

Junior year of highschool a friend of mine runs into my room (it was a boarding school). He says, "You've got to hear this" and plays me a bit of a dubstep mix from SubFm. Shit blew my mind. I was a metalhead at the time and the heavy bass and the dark, heavy industrial groove really turned me on.

me + marijuana + Scuba's Twista = love
I had been an electro/minimal tech. DJ up until that point and I started originally DJing with old dub records, so the combo was pretty much a given love for me...
