Does dubstep still have much cultural influence? Seem to remember it started getting ‘cerebral’ with 6music and the like playing SBTRKT etc and saying stuff like, “it’s got its first proper LPs now” - almost like how Prodigy etc legitimised edm or whatever
yes, it’s 2011 again!
(all this cos i just put katy b on)
Pendulum are still mad big (at Reading).
are they dubstep? always had them down as like, idk, dance metal
Dubstep has split up
Pendulum are/were DnB
I think anything with a drop or a bit of wobble gets classed as dubstep these days. It’s annoying.
Pendulum are pop drum& bass
Was an exciting time. I think it morphed into something a bit naff though. I still listen to the Dubstep Allstars mixes pretty regularly. Have fond memories of nights like FWD>> at Plastic People.
Charli is helping to bring dubstep back
Landfill jock trance
There was a dubstep thread wasn’t there… Lots of classic tracks posted in there.
There is, can’t find it though
I remember someone on the old boards posted like 5 or 6 essential Dubstep records and I really enjoyed them a lot but can’t for the life of me remember what they were now or who posted.
I know Boxcutter was one?
Weird, I can only find these two, the main one seems to have gone
I think I discovered dubstep
Still some great dubstep being made, check these labels
System Music and Deep Medi are still putting out regular releases too
Listen to Fasten your seatbelts by Pendulum and tell me if isn’t clownstep
The ramadanman and chef mixes of these were one of the first things that got me into dubstep
