Dubstep

[Aakon_Keetreh]

Anybody listen to dubstep? or do you all suck

[Carl Sagan]

little late for the bandwagon there

[Interstate]

Lol just a tad.

[Iai]

I'm still listening, even though the /mu/ crowd are turning against it for some reason.

[Wish]

I do.

[Carl Sagan]

lol /mu/

[DhA]

what's /mu/?

[planewreck]

I still listen to Burial a bunch but I don't even know if that constitutes anymore. Looking for good recs if anyone has them.

[Carl Sagan]

burial is the only good dubstep

[planewreck]

Nicky you're holding out on me

[Carl Sagan]

[Kyle]

[Carl Sagan]

[Arucard]

[Iai]

Time for The Drop, son.

[Wish]

Speaking of which, I just ordered CHST003 and CHST007. Gleaming.

[zaynus]

saw skream last week and it blew my mind

[Arucard]

you know your leet when you refer to songs with their white label reference number

[Wish]

It's easier than saying "V / Present Day" and "Twilight / V (Pinch RMX)". But I did anyway, so...

[Arucard]

yeah it was actaully a compliment aha i wasn't being sarcastic.

i need to get a copy of the numbernin6 remix of breathe on vinyl..

[Txus]

Dubstep has been dominating my listenings lately.

[2muchket!]

[Interstate]

Skream, Benga and Rusko on the 23rd in newcastle.

Can't wait.

Man that's gonna be ****ing ace.

[Txus]

Any of you guys into Scuba?

[Arucard]

im not sure whos playing with rusko on the 20th, it could be caspa but i have no idea

[Arucard]

sorry for double post, its Rusko, Caspa and Unitz!

deeeeep

[C.O.A.]

Any of you guys into Scuba?
checked out his myspace, wasn't really my kinda ****.

[Wish]

Any of you guys into Scuba?He's great. Haven't heard a lot of his stuff but it's definitely something to chill out to.

[Txus]

Yes, it's a lot more "ambient" than a lot of the artists discussed here, but he is pretty awesome.

A Mutual Antipathy is such a good album, if you don't have it already Wish you should get it, or I can send it to you.

I've been listening to Martyn's new album (Great Lengths) which is quite good and Clubroot which is incredible.

[Wish]

Great Lengths is superb. Got Zomby and Kryptic Minds' albums the other day but haven't had the chance to listen to them.

Ahh, if you could send it to me that would be great. I'm gonna buy it away but for the time being it would be nice :)

[Txus]

One Foot Ahead of the Other? that's the Zomby one you're tlaking about? that one is great, I didn't like Where were u in 92 LP much, its good, but not as good as his other work.

Never heard Kryptic Minds.

Oh and check your last.fm inbox :)

[Wish]

One Foot Ahead of the Other, yeah. Looking forward to listening to it.

Got the link. Thanks a lot!

PS. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoabVM4DokQ / http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bZSeJlrxyc

[Txus]

Wow, that was really good. Very dark.

:D Will definitely look further into his stuff.

[2muchket!]

Boxcutter is the king of the minimal/ambient dubstep.

[Interstate]

Boxcutter is the king of the minimal/ambient dubstep.

Boxcutter is the shiz.

Been listening to alot of Vex'd lately, Degenerate is really growing on me.

[Wish]

Txus, that album is absolutely amazing. Thank you. As soon as I have more money I am buying it.

Vex'd are vv good, and their remix of "Fallen" is something else.

[Txus]

Vex'd rules, my favorite song of his is probably Bombardment of Saturn (****ing awesome name too) but yeah, Degenerate is a great album.

And I'm glad you enjoyed the album that much, Wish. It's quite a great one, very original. I would buy the album just for the artwork, I need to get my paycheck first.

[Iai]

Degenerate is awesome.

[Arucard]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FJBRC_PKJk

totally hilarious.. the dub is DEEP and the vocals are just great ahah. good remake of a classic cheese song, its fun to drop into sets to see peoples reactions.

this thread seems to be maintaining an unusually high standard of intelligence.. awesome

[Arucard]

aha this remix is going to be absolutely massive

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBFib9TWa2o

amazing.

[Wish]

Heard that somewhere but I don't know where.

Saw Bar9 on Friday. HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE. Gutted I didn't see Brackles b2b Shortstuff but Foreign Beggars couldn't be missed.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FJBRC_PKJk

I remember when Stenchman posted that on dubstepforum. Good times.

[Arucard]

I don't dare to post on the dubstep forums for fear of being shot down in flames.

[Wish]

Why?

[Arucard]

the knowledge level on those forums seems to be inhumanly high, they also seem like quite a tight knit group.

but i might give it a bash.

[wang masta flex]

UltraGore is a pretty sick dubstep label based out of Tel Aviv, good heavy ****

http://www.myspace.com/ultragoremusic

this dude Borgore .... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsaLpVDW6oI .... follow his instructions

[Arucard]

yeah the ultragore stuff is generally ill

anyone want to talk dnb in here as well? would save another thread.

also we got any Bar 9 fans in the house?

[Wish]

I've met Borgore. Super nice guy and a badman producer :)

Bar9 are huge. Saw them Friday and was blown away.
the knowledge level on those forums seems to be inhumanly high, they also seem like quite a tight knit group.
There are idiots there, trust me.

[Arucard]

Yeah Bar 9 are amazing, love their remix of the new Nic Correli track, its massive.

Aha alright, i'll sign up. It does look like it can be fun too.

[wang masta flex]

anyone dig Noisia?

[Wish]

GUYS GUYS GUYS

http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/654/dsc00231h.jpg

:D
anyone dig Noisia?
Not a big drum & bass fan tbh

[wang masta flex]

Noisia's different, man

[Ghostfire3]

If you're really looking for some womp ---> Bassnectar

[Arucard]

Noisia is the opposite of different, their tracks are so ridiculously generic it hurts. I really don't buy into generic dnb, i basically only listen to liquid stuff, so London Elektricity, High Contrast, older Chase And Status, Danny Bayrd etc.

The whole 'jungle' vibe has thankfully been put to rest.

[magicbus]

You guys into 16 Bit?

[Txus]

I've been listening to Milanese lately, dude is so good!

[2muchket!]

Chilled to Kryptic Minds new album earlier.

Love that style of Dubstep

[Txus]

Yeah, I really liked his new album

[Wish]

Kryptic Minds is brilliant.
You guys into 16 Bit?
Yeeessssssssssssssssss.

[Adash]

16 bit is good but generally dubstep is a bit last year, which is why me n a friend are making some avant doomstep

[Txus]

I'm completely stoned listening to the new kryptic minds album and holy **** secure lost is INTENSE

[Wish]

Wanted to fall asleep to that or Silkie's album last night after getting high but the person I was staying with stuck Untrue on instead. Can't complain.

[Txus]

Yeah, one can't complain to that. Great album.

[Roach]

http://soundcloud.com/fabric/caspa-promo-mix

[Wish]

Yeah, that's a pretty decent mix.

[Jaded]

little late for the bandwagon there

umm, not in the us. that sh*t is huge in europe but it's still getting popular here

[TimJim]

hey guys could you rec me some good dubstep that isnt very ambient and leans more towards hip hop.

im not sure how else to explain it other than in the general style of this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBugKse-BEg

sorry for not being clear!

[Wish]

Rusko
The Others

idk

[obZenz]

Do you guys listen to Level 67? I recently got an album, and it's absolutely incredible. I've been listening to it real late at night though, driving around, it's pretty deep. Dubstep is kind've a new thing for me as well, I'm getting a Kryptic Minds album right now - really pumped to hear the sounds.

Anybody recommend a decent site to get some stuff off of? Rapidshare seems to have a lot of the stuff, just hard to come across on your common sites like isohunt, etc. =)

[TimJim]

Rusko
The Others

idk
very nice!

I got chatting to a guy on YouTube and he sent me a load of tracks of producers he was promoting or whatever, and some of the tracks were by Level 67. I can't say I was too impressed but maybe they were early tracks or some of their/his/her worst.
very nice!
Glad you approve.

[Benzum]

Everyone sign this: http://rinse.fm/index.php/petition

No problem. Thanks for the recommendations you guys.

That list is insanely long so that'll be enough for now, for sure.

Getting in to Bar9 / Burial / Kryptic Minds at the moment, I'm gonna slowly move my way along using that list. Thanks buddy! =)

[Wish]

That's a good variation.

[2muchket!]

boxcutter is another good 'un

[Iai]

I checked out Kryptic Minds today, pretty good but it seems completely unfocused, like he doesn't really have any idea what he wants to sound like.

[TimJim]

boxcutter is another good 'un
theyre too ambient for me :(


or at least what i heard of them

[robertsona]

vex'd is really good


burial's obviously the best ive heard


OBVIOUSLY

[obZenz]

That's a good variation.

No doubt man, Bar9's Midnight is doing it for me at the moment..

[poopie]

the Dash EXP Dub Assassins III mix is amazing...

my friend and i put together this ambient dubstep track this weekend

http://www.extlabs.com/ishkabum/breadgum.mp3

and i worked on this track whenever i got tired of working on that one. its weirder

http://www.extlabs.com/ishkabum/ctc.mp3

[Correction]

so this hyperdub 5 album is ridiculously good, plan to check out a lot of the artists featured on their too

[poopie]

uh... another track of mine

http://www.extlabs.com/ishkabum/luckodraw.mp3

[Wish]

http://www.dmzuk.com/newsletter/002/images/DMZ-NOV2009.jpg

For anybody in London on the 7th. Huge line-up.

[poopie]

thats gona be a sick ****n show ... kryptic minds and digital mystikz i know rock, dont know the others

[2muchket!]

****ing sweet line-up.

I'd love to see Kromestar play a set. Same with Kryptic Minds.

[Arucard]

Wish i'll check the money situation and hopefully attend.

Saw Bar 9 in Swansea on Saturday in the smallest venue in the world, it was ****ing sick. I was off my face, he played his bootleg of Hip-Hop by Dead Prez and its amazing!

Also as a quick thing, does anyone know where i can buy a white label of Rusko ft Clipz - Scareware or Rusko - Do You Wanna Have A Party? Big basslines, good set material i think. Or just a good quality mp3.

[Wish]

I'm pretty sure neither have been released, so no.
****ing sweet line-up.

I'd love to see Kromestar play a set. Same with Kryptic Minds.
Indeed. Kromestar has played in Ipswich twice in the past year or so and I've missed both.
Wish i'll check the money situation and hopefully attend.
Yeah, I'd probably attend if I wasn't in France.

[Arucard]

Ah lame. What are you doing in France?

[2muchket!]

Stenchman is playing Middlesbrough later on this month. Can't wait for that.

[Wish]

Ah lame. What are you doing in France?
Just going for the day with people from work. Partial booze cruise/general piss-up I think.
Stenchman is playing Middlesbrough later on this month. Can't wait for that.
Niiiice. Seeing him and Borgore in Brighton in December.

[2muchket!]

Ahhh man it'd be sweet seeing them two in the same night.

[Aaron]

Hey, does Burial gig at all? Would love to see him live.

[TimJim]

been playing Cookie Monsta and DatsiK almost non stop

[Wish]

They're both good.
Ahhh man it'd be sweet seeing them two in the same night.

[Kyle]

Sure this has been mentioned, but has anybody got a copy of the Hyperdub: Five Years of Hyperdub box set?

Really digging it right now.

[StreetlightRock]

Yall need to check out DFRNT's latest - Metafiction. Deep as hell, really really chill, one of the best Echodub artists out there.

http://www.myspace.com/dfrntdubstep

[Wish]

Sure this has been mentioned, but has anybody got a copy of the Hyperdub: Five Years of Hyperdub box set?

Gonna pick it up soon. Love the new Burial track that's on it though. "Fostercare" or whatever.

[2muchket!]

Yeah heard that new track from him a few days ago. Absolutely quality.

[Surf]

the new hyperdub box set has got the mala track that i've been looking for for ages

the burial track is good, just seems quite standard burial

[Wish]

the new hyperdub box set has got the mala track that i've been looking for for ages
SWEET! I am bagging this ASAP then.

[Correction]

Sure this has been mentioned, but has anybody got a copy of the Hyperdub: Five Years of Hyperdub box set?

Really digging it right now.

yeah it's so quality

[kicked]

I've been diggin dubstep for a while now, especially Caspa, Rusko, Skream, and Bar9. Its just so brutal and powers right through with insane rhythm. Recently I've been noticing a lot of jam bands having side projects that are experimenting with a little dubstep. String Cheese Incident has a side project called Eoto which is ****in sick, its really experimental based on what dubstep I've heard. The Disco Biscuits also have a side project called M80 dubstation, I haven't listened to him yet but I'm going to see him on December 3rd, I'm def looking forward to it. I saw Lotus last night and they actually had two or three songs where they incorporated some dubstep sounding bass drops and riffs in there, real awesome. I just find it interesting that all these bands are kinda dropping into dubstep and experimenting with it.

[Arucard]

ever since i saw bar 9 i've been addicted to his stuff... strung out is so ****ing chilled

[TimJim]

broken note is legit, and excursion is as well

[kicked]

Murda Sound is pretty dope too, that **** is so heavy.

[beans]

dont know if its dubstep but i stumbled upon a group called Morcheeba today. Liking their stuff a lot so far

[Interstate]

Murda Sound is pretty dope too, that **** is so heavy.

Murda Sound is some heavy ****. Been listening to a few Mt Eden songs on youtube recently, mainly Sierra Leone. Really catchy stuff.

[AA-12]

in case you guys want more mt eden stuff, heres a link to his album

http://rapidshare.com/files/292344655/MtEden.rar

and its not piracy, he uploaded that himself and links it on his sites/profiles

[Iai]

dont know if its metal but i stumbled upon a group called Coldplay today. Liking their stuff a lot so far

[beans]

\m/

[Iai]

don't know if your post was a joke or not but yeah, morcheeba are pretty much just soft rock posing as trip-hop

[beans]

naw, im still getting into this style of music, so im sure ill come across some other duds here and there

im likin kryptic minds so far though

[2muchket!]

The list wish posted a few pages back is pretty comprehensive. Only other artists I'd add would probably be Borgore, Boxcutter and Stenchman.

[Arucard]

Definatley Borgore and Stenchman.

Stenchman is the biggest winner in the world.

[Wish]

"Powerful Magical" and "What the Future Holds" are his best tune (released) imo

[Arucard]

Agreed. Been listening to What The Future Holds ALOT, the pitch shifted Neo quote at the start is classic.

On another note, whenever i hear 'When I Look At You' by Emalkay in a set it makes me prang. Don't know what it is about that song but it just does it for me every time.

[Wish]

the new hyperdub box set has got the mala track that i've been looking for for ages

the burial track is good, just seems quite standard burial
Arrived today. So far so good. So glad it has "Digidesign" on it.

[kicked]

I'm sure most of you have heard Eastern Jam by Chase and Status, I was just wondering if you guys know of any other dubstep songs that have world music samples/influence incorporated into them, especially Indian music. I just love the scales of classical Indian music and I think it sounds dope when an ill bass drop in it, mixes it up to a modern time.

[Aakon_Keetreh]

anyone hear swagga by datsik?

[Skyler]

been listening to the new hyperdub comp as well. pretty decent.

[Wish]

anyone hear swagga by datsik?
Yes.

[HighandDriving]

Can anyone rec me some tracks that have a lot of womp, kinda like the Swagga.

[2muchket!]

What kinda stuff do you already know so I can rec ?

[HighandDriving]

Um like Bassnectar (going to see em next thursday), abunch of boring ambient stuff, bar 9, 16 bit.

Like I want tracks that REALLY bring the womp.

[2muchket!]

Off the top my head 26 basslines by benga brings the womp.

(Obvious I know but I've got a **** load of work and cba playing through all the dubstep I have)

[Wish]

What the **** is womp? Wobble?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsIPqFr_IhU
abunch of boring ambient stuff
Sigh.

[HighandDriving]

Ya Womp is Wobble, I'm surprised you haven't heard that "term", as I've seen it used often.

Sorry but most of that ambient **** bores me, like I don't really enjoy Kryptic Minds, although I do like Burial and Flying Lotus.

[2muchket!]

Flying Lotus isn't dubstep.

[HighandDriving]

Dub Hop?

[Roach]

it's just instrumental hip-hop

[HighandDriving]

There's a lil bit of dub in it, pretty sure Flying Lotus is featured on the Hyper 5 comp also.

[Roach]

i haven't dived extensively into his work so i could be wrong but from what i've heard it's just hip hop hoppity

[HighandDriving]

I don't quite get why they'd put a instrumental hip hop artist on the Hyperdub 5 comp, pretty sure that settles it, unless I'm missing something.

[2muchket!]

Nah you're missing something.

[HighandDriving]

I don't believe I am but if you would like to enlighten me go ahead.

[TimJim]

Um like Bassnectar (going to see em next thursday), abunch of boring ambient stuff, bar 9, 16 bit.
