Big props to the Sydney lads who are also the Garage Preessure crew who will be supporting LOEFAH 7th August!

 

yeah heard all that

nice mystery and shit... i kinda just loved the way that half his mates had no idea either, they'd be chucking on his album and he was thinking "please dont slate it"

Burial is tipped favourite to win the Mercury Prize this year!

Loefah on FBI 94.5fm Garage Pressure show - MP3!

http://www.garagepressure.com/podcasts/GaragePressureShow010808-1.mp3

 

So some nobody wanted to be some nobody so he could make good tunes?

Yeah, makes as much sense as the rest of dubstep...


Although this made me laugh - some people started a rumour Burial was actually Norman Cook and heaps of forum guys believed it for a while

tis why i like the sound so much right now.  so much diversity in the spectrum...

from dark aggressive technoid robot genocides to ethereal blissed out lush soundscapes...
jungle & d&b
dub/reggae
ambient/trip hop
hip hop
breaks/garage
techno/house

the worlds your friggin oyster

hear hear.

yes, but YOU weren't there there
There there CinnaGirl you'll have holidays soon, get your bass fix on ... As for grumpy J's question, I think it's already been answered. Macro, Others and I have certainly noticed music in a few particular "genres" has expanded to incorporate that " i've been waiting for this all my life" kinda feeling. Anzac was there to hear what Macro and Strife were playing... it ( dubstep /bass-line music ) has a bright future if the tunes we heard are anything to go by... what you reckon ? Great tunes coming out at the moment !!

Yeah, not soon enough! 

Catch ya out next time Benni. 

no n type at spring break boo hoo but fukn EXCISION is his replacement that i can handle. 

No, they're not band people.

These people kind of like hiphop, breaks, dnb - but aren't into the whole scene. Never been the type to go out every week, unlike every single person who's posted in this thread. Not ones that have at some point in their lives gone week to week gobbling whatever pills and powders they can find, unlike everyone who has posted in this thread.

They don't go to many clubs, don't download many podcasts or browse dance music based forums.

They like Pendulum, Prodigy, Plump DJs, Freestylers, 2ManyDJs - the more mainstream stuff.

In other words, normal people.

I've taken them to gigs like Nextmen which they enjoyed until they started playing dubstep. One guy Damo liked what Kito was playing, but said it wasn't like the stuff I gave him (Skream, Box of Dub, Jayar's first dubstep mix he posted on AM... maybe Redline - can't remember exactly) and wasn't sure if he'd be able to stand a whole mix of it.

Not sure if I gave them the Reso mix. Don't think I did so I might give that a go.

Got any stuff recorded, Macro?


So, even though I'm giving people dubstep CDs and taking them out to gigs, I'm "grumpy"?

Apart from being a complete bitch, what do you do for the dubstep scene again?

Macros five buck bass mix is up on here.


Normal?  what does that mean?

   Macro's gonna probably kill me for doing this, but I'm sure the links don't reveal the track name and artist. We like to keep our sound tight and for our own reasons...and everyone works their butts off, so may also not have time to get all the sounds they want  ( we all help each other out as best we can, the five families, oh you know ?  ok )
   Have a listen to the snippets Funky J, not the entire spectrum, but the sound that some of us  ( strife, desh, macro, gunda G ...even me ) wanna rep to deliver a fuller spectrum to the music aficionados in our town. This is no diss to what other selectors play. It just seems that even the most musical examples of what's out there aren't hitting your "mhmm, that's not bad" targets yet....

   I KNOW your trying to have a dig at people who go out every week and/or are taking whatnot every week...We all know that's not true
So the mainstream stuff they like is fair enough.
   One thing you do know about DUB, or anything that has the word DUB in it. It Means experimental, trying out different track layers and versions. Mashing them all together until a workable sound comes out.
   The music artists you listed, that your friends listened to, in my opinion, haven't done anything experimental for a while ( their first couple of releases have surely set the pace and even set some standards ). Those artists listed KNOW what works and use it (users ).        
   Whereas you do get some producers who also realise this, but choose to dedicate the service of their love of music, to facilitating "options" that allow new paths or styles to be forged.
   So yeah, OUTSIDE of dance music, I think most people would appreciate some elements of the European styles that are coming out at the moment.
   I could go on about what being "cool" is, which I wouldn't know much about anyway .However, maybe your friends, although appreciating your efforts to hand mixes out ( "Old" by dubstep's standard perhaps ? Again no diss to the mixes or mix-ees ) may have been made to feel that they are no longer cool because they weren't the ones who went searching or discovered the music for themselves ? ( The opposite to Collectors who travel the world or eBay for a rare item, or Chefs who strive to find the freshest ingredients, Pit crews who find the best and fastest way to service their team car... etc. )
   Thanks for that though...
interested to hear what you think about the five snippets above ...

just so you know, yes the links do reveal the artist and track title

I am so in love with anything Excision is bringin at the moment.. His remix of Pendulums Showdown is pure nasty!
Can not wait to see him here for Spring Break!

Even Z-Trip is making dubstep!  A-Delayed..... we might catch on here eventually.

LMAO!

link to my new mix - hope some of you enjoy 

http://www.adelaidemassive.com/index.php?topic=4458.new#new

hey i recognise one of those tunes...





why do you say that?

RATS !! I can just see heaps of style-jackers rubbing their hands with glee... I put one of those links in goggle, nothing, put in in Juno's search field, nothing... save it, nothing. How do you do it then ? Dan's gonna be hopefully spinning some of these ON A BIG SYSTEM, didn't wanna ruin the surprise for everyone who hasn't heard them like that yet !!
ahh well, least you know who was responsible for finding and playing them lovely sounds  (< from macropeed and I )

i'll make sure i don't 'jack' the tune i posted in this thread 3 months ago... you're lucky nobody listens to me

i personally think that is a terrible attitude which cannot be good for the 'scene' in any way...  sharing is caring, don't you want other people to enjoy the music that brings you so much joy?  isn't that why you're a dj?  are you really worried someones going to catch wind of the tunes you're playing and put together a better set of the same tunes and perform it before you get a chance?


mp3s are tagged


have we all heard the xzibit tune? free download and all!

yep...which is why a couple of cats have back-up copies of some of the tunes i would think deserve a respectful spin. ( not a thrashing )
I also just sent a tasty bottle of this over to Loefah, as thanks for him playing for free last year at James' birthday, yes sharing is caring hey...

(it's Ron Zacapa XO, catch that ? )
don't you want your food cooked ( in a restaurant, for example ) by people who can ?  ( even if merely based on experience, perhaps ? )
Cats from ALL the "families" know I've encouraged people, and people putting on stuff and booking people who have that drive, to get the sounds they like and put it into a creative delivery of those selections...( it's standard to get the successive generations to strive for better skill levels than the previous generations... ) that's never something I've ever worried about, it's the clientele not having that as years pass, which is why i will wait until my equipment comes, this grump ain't going anywhere soon...

wouldn't usually bother with sharing any of that on here, but hey... you're a great antagonist 

I don't understand how this is a response to what I have said?  What do you mean by 'cats have back-up copies'?  The booze was indeed a very nice gesture, but I don't understand how it has anything to do with what I was talking about?


I don't quite understand the analogy... Are you saying that you're more worried that someone will put together a worse set of the same tunes and thereby ruin those tunes for their potential audience?


I've read this about 10 times and I really don't understand?


All genuine questions, I'm not trying to antagonise anybody.

Sorry guys but I find the whole concept of hiding tunes or keeping them secret really childish and to be totally honest, rather pathetic.

You don't seriously do this do ya?

ME?  I'm more than willing to concede that everything I've got to say is less valid because I'm only 23.  I also have been continually looking for and finding 'them' (assuming you mean 'new tunes'), and then I posted one of 'them' in this thread to share because I thought it was gold... Nobody commented at that time... I was stoked to see someone else was rating that particular tune when bennie posted those clips because of the previously lukewarm response.  I hadn't seen anyone playing 16bit tunes, so I thought I'd post up their myspace when I found they were churning out the gold...  I'm glad a couple of heads we're feeling that one...

Don't get me wrong... I do understand... I spend ridiculous amounts of my time discovering new music... And I totally understand if you're putting together a set for this Friday then by all means you would want to keep a lid on it until you can present it exactly how you want to... I don't have a problem with that... But I don't think anyone should get too carried away with that attitude... We're all going to get more out of it if we share our discoveries for the most part... Don't you agree?  Isn't that kinda why we have a Dubstep! thread?

Again, I'm not trying to antagonise anybody.  I think any discussion or debate between individuals with common goals or interests about differing methods or opinions is bound to be productive... That is the only motivation for my lines of questioning.


That too

Benny has mentioned on more than a few occasions  that he hides the names of tunes or keeps them secret.

Not that I care. Stirring shit on the other hand is something I rather enjoy.

People are all different and tend to do things differently. End of story.

What a lame comment.

What a lame response.

SO anyway, about that dubstep...

Such a joke.

Like ooooh no one can see the names of the tunes I play oooooh I'm so cool look at me!

If you were playing some unreleased tune or something you'd done yourself fair enough but at the end of the day you're just playing someone elses tunes in Adelaide like hundreds of other people are in other cities around the world.

Get over yourselves.

Too many dicks on the dancefloor.

 

this is the reason i deleted my posts.... you guys are fucking lame for reading in to it that much. End of story.

The lovely Tim aka Boot(SYD) has had his first vinyl release signed. his tune Satellite just got signed to Terminal Dusk! Will be about November, with the flip being VCO by Komonazmuk
awesome news ! 
http://www.myspace.com/bootaudio
http://soundcloud.com/boot

Yes you're right. It seems that I must be the only dj out of hundreds of dj's that keep their sound tight...
you all acting * like I'm the only person who does it ?
*that's lame... scapegoat me all you want, i encourage you to... if it makes your lives easier, do it, ain't nothing new to me...*yawn*

and to be blunt... i have an obligation, a legacy, from the rumble days, to ensure that sound is delivered to the people in the cleanest, most creative way possible, I am the worst punter, i don't tolerate dogdy attempts at sets, except if you acknowledge your bad mixes at the time, which i do, whenever i do a bad mix...

If you don't know what it's like, and you don't understand when we try and explain... tough... we just do our job to the fullest, if you can do better, please, go ahead

i share my tunes, i encourage people to step their skills up, yeah, i get shot down for it, because i don't do it with tact, i'm blunt about it, YOU get over YOURselves... for a change... just give it a try... go on, try... 

No offence dude but that is the wankiest pile of tripe I've ever heard.

don't call me dude then,
i'm not worried about other cats doing a better job, just the ones who tease and shit stir, thinking they are actually making a difference !!

don't need anyone's approval to strive for the best for crew who like music... i've been doing that for the last 15 years, so what you say about things you weren't responsible for, ain't much better than the comment you made about me ... catch ?

Sorry.. Did somebody post something?

 
you ALWAYS gotta have teh last word, don't 'cha faceplate ?
 

( try an' come back from THAT, ya moal )

wow

Yeah, unfortunately, still crap.

 

yep, no comeback from that comment i posted earlier...live and learn
ah well...
you'll have to find some other way to stir ish...
the links i posted were of good tracks in my opinion...
for comparison

here's one especially for YOU,  GrumpFunky J, this is quite bizzare, but hey, each to their own... you might even like it 

SO anyway,

What are everyone's thoughts on Embrace The Renaissance?  Just grabbing now...

cashmere agency, mixed by plastician, mcs going good over dub bass... it works, what can i say !!!
image not archived: cashmere-agency-presents-dubstep-back.jpg

You are well below average!!

[video: www.youtube.com]

Yes.

... yeah Tobi not bad to listen to.

im not hating the wobble like some, but this stripped back badboy is rocking my shit right now:
[video: www.youtube.com]\
reminds me of the minimal ruffneck vibe that got me hooked on dubstep originally. bass and UK gangster = win.
big up deshticles for pointing it out to me

once again though, would have waaaay more impact on the 'floor with a good sub kicking holes in your chest.

bpm in any music has nothing to do with where the kick and the snare fall, you can't compare one genre's bpm to another in that sense, i can dance to drum and bass like it's dub, and i can move to dubstep like it's gabba ... the "time signature" is what the producer and any bpm counting software calibrates it as... most dance music is 4 beats per "bar", so people tend to count in that manner and hence the bpm is often confused with the "time signature" in any genre

fucking how it should be!

I'm not big on dubstep, but this is awesome. So relaxing!

Urrgh i hate seeing these kinds of line ups (all rooms) and being stuck here

apparently seal isnt a big fan of dubstep

I dont half blame him, if he was exposed to the wrong stuff from his back ground he probably has every right to say that. Some of the wobble, angry shit is exactly that.... shit and i dont think its overly musical at all, kinda like hardcore etc. i feel the same way about.

not surprising in the slightest.
its not like we havent heard people who are into guitar/band music who all hate 'techno' meaning electronic music.


what does seal think about ragga jungle

New Onion mag dubstep column up now... http://www.onion.com.au/article/1807

Feel free to forward any local dubstep news, tours, releases etc for future inclusion...

dubstep is pulling me into its world.

and i must say im liking most of what im hearing.
never thought anything would catch my eye like dnb did, but the idea of mixing dubstep
opens up a whole new type of atmosphere to dnb.

and well i ordered another studio sub last night, not that the one i have atm isnt sick i just want it to be stupidity

Joker vs Gorillaz. Interested to see how this charts. More on a chillout tip but huge sounds as always.

Wow -

STRAIGHT FROM BEATPORT.COM - "Hot off the press, it's TRUE: Just in time for this weekend's costume contests, Skrillex's 'Scary Monsters And Nice Sprites' EP holds a record 8 out of 10 chart positions on our overall Top 10, including #1 - the first time dubstep tracks have made it into the Top 10, and the first time a ...DJ or producer's entire release has completely stormed the chart. Congrats, Skrillex!

yeah promoters there got a lot of money to put into their shows as well.

Good to see it featuring a little in some of the local festivals, Caspa's crowd at Stereosonic was pretty hectic, esp as he was on pretty early in the day. Almost had some at the jailbreak party too but planets didnt align quickly enough...

[video: www.youtube.com]

Handsome tune.

[video: www.youtube.com]

skip to around 2 mins and wait for the drop

discuss

not enough bass.
apart from that it just sounds like some commercial dance track, no better or worse than others out there.

Heard this one dubstep track on fresh a few weekends back...can't find it for the life of me as I have NFI what it is called.  Want to hear it again and let a producer mate of mine have a listen.

It sounds like P Money, and the lyrics before it drops go something like 'at the end of every 4th bar say oh'.  Then at the end of every 4th bar some guy goes 'oh'. 

Cheers
Phil

Ho Riddim. P MOney for sure. [video: www.youtube.com]

Thanks mate.

awesome track

reckon ive played this out in every set since doctor P!

Looks like Rusko is coming down under for a nz/aus tour. Any word on an Adelaide show?

 Nope but will do

Local lads getting in on the graphic bizzo accompanied with plenty of bass for a free entry art show at The Austral for the Fringe 



Between Desh’s whacked out illustrations, Stuntman’s drawings and tattoos and Jayar’s nudes to a deep bass soundtrack – where else are you going to be this night?

http://tix.adelaidefringe.com.au/ticketing/EventDetails.aspx?EventGuid=c90a2c81-3f50-4a0c-b37e-b3ea9e5555cc

The loosely coined Dubstep Doodlers consists of DJs DESH (Benjamin Keynes) STUNTMAN/STRIFE (Jesse Schuppan) and JAYAR (Julian Rutt) – three esteemed, long standing Adelaide dubstep DJs who are equally at home expressing themselves graphically as they are behind the decks… This exhibition sees them come together to showcase some of their art works to a soundtrack of dubstep, drum&bass, breaks, hiphop and whatever else they feel like playing on the opening night, Wednesday 2nd March @ 8pm, at the Austral, Bunka Bar.
Free entry!



Stuntman aka Strife aka Jesse Schuppan: Using pencil and charcoal my art tends to focus on the human form on a more abstract view. My series for this exhibition is all based around an almost featureless, tribal looking character that I instinctively draw for some reason. Creating expression from an almost expressionless form. Strife has also been a long time D&B DJ and mixing dubstep early since it appeared in Adelaide and co-hosting “The Left Hook” with Desh on Soundpond.net from 6-8pm.

Originally from the Barossa Valley, Desh aka Benjamin Keynes moved to Adelaide to study illustration at uni and has quickly become a prominent figure in the local dubstep scene under his DJ moniker, Desh. Part of the Redline Dubstars crew, Benjamin has helped to promote and play at some key dubstep events over the last 2 years, including N-Type, Reso, Seven, Truth, Kito , Doctor P, & Addison Groove on top of a slew of local shows including 10 Buck Bass, 5 families and Boombox. He can be heard across the local airwaves co-hosting the weekly dubstep radio show "The Bassbin" alongside Jayar on Fresh FM 10pm-12pm Thursdays, and weekly soundpond.net broadcast "The Left Hook"
Currently studying Illustration and Graphic Design at uni, Benjamin has been drawing since he could hold a pencil. Whilst constantly refining his style, his personal aesthetic is at equal parts dark, futuristic, introspective and stylistic, a clear reflection of the music that he loves and is so heavily involved in. For his first artistic exhibition, Benjamin is excited to present a number of pieces that can display a diversity of themes and a unique personal style.

Jayar aka Julian Rutt took up mixing D&B while living in the UK too long ago to admit when exactly, and soon began playing regularly in Adelaide and supporting some of the biggest names in that scene including Pendulum, LTJ Bukem, Marky & Fabio. By 2006, dubstep took his interest and Jayar began to push the sound locally and began the promoter crew/collective The Redline Dubstars for the very first local all-dubstep show featuring the (at the time) relatively unknown Benga, and has since been involved in putting some of the biggest names in the scene including Caspa, N-Type, Doctor P, Seven, Truth, Tes La Rok, Reso, Noah D, Trolley Snatcha, Plastician & SPL and began Adelaide’s dubstep radio show “The Bassbin” on Fresh FM in early 2008 with Skippy and then Desh, and has had his mixes played on Triple J’s ‘The Club’ three times.
A keen drawer and photographer since film days, Julian’s work currently focuses predominantly on the nude female form, taking models, willing friends and regular people off the street alike and attempts to either show the ‘model’ in a different way or capture some hidden part of who they are in an unusually public context.

hes playing Good Vibrations festival. which we obviously dont get here. hence why there was no offer

vicious circle on a dubstep tip

New remix bizness from me




Thanks guys!

Is it just me or is there a horrible amount of horrible dubstep around now?

As usual, its just you

K, thanks for confirmation!

no, there really is a pile of terrible stuff around. utter noisy garbage.

its far far worse than when pendulum were infecting d&b with their trash



its not too much harder to hear the good stuff mind, its just being drowned out by all the crap and Skrillex stuff that got more in common with electro than dubstep.

Excellent. Jayar agrees and he is the dubstep man around here as far as I'm concerned!

I also agree with you... But I find Skrillex to be quite good actually. Just not Dubstep. But good I think it's pretty reasonable considering all the new music genres out there and the new ones that are getting developed. Can't blame the guy if he made sth and didn't know which genre to put it in. It was better than Electro, and didn't sounds like Dubstep. Skrillex does his own thing.
