  • "#Dubstep is the newest musical genre to come out of the UK and is quietly gaining popularity all other the UK with its heavy, heavy bass lines and spaced out sound. The scene is particularly strong in London, but #Bristol is often classed as Dubstep’s second city. This film goes into the underbelly of the Dubstep scene in Bristol and uncovers through interviews with DJ’s, promoters and punters a vibrant and growing scene. The film explains the Dubstep sound and how the Bristol scene started, highlights how producers make Dubstep tunes and plays live Dubstep sets and describes why the sound system is so important to the genre. If you are into underground music and subcultures then you cannot afford to miss this film.
    The film features DJ Pinch, Peverelist, Bubonic, Atik2, Hench Crew, Kymatik, Kidkut, Blazey, Stealth, Dub Boy, Wedge, White Boi, Gutterbreaks, Elemental, Search & Destroy, Skream, Chef and the Bristol Dubstep Massive. (including many hijackers)
    Also the video for Pinch - Qwalli is on there.
    Hope you like it,
    Easy"

    Oh, the relative naivete people back then. Reminds me of the mid '90s. Free. Unconcerned. Unoccupied. Innocent. And really enjoying the event horizon as it lifts them into the future, now. It was one of the last creative bursts before the shit hit the fan (Viz 2020).

    It's funny - back in the mid -90's, being wholly immersed in the explosion of jungle/drum'n'bass music coming from the UK, i envisioned a new genre eventually emerging which would consist almost entirely of undulating waves of sub bass, and little else. I visualized (or auralized), in my mind's eye/ear, sparse stacatto drum nd synth stabs floating, like small ships, over a sea of bass.
    Fast forward a decade or so and it had manifested itself. Proof of a universal mind from which we all draw our individual creative inspiration and ideas?

      Oh how I love you!
      I too vividly "heard" music in the mid 2000's and when someone played dubstep in their car, I burst out ... "Omg, this is what I've been hearing!" It was an epiphany. I felt the vibration in my soul (soul makes the mind be alive), and translated it out soundly fashioned.
      Proof for a universal mind? It is to you! And when your mind is one with the one, so it is for everyone. You store the unheard subtle cosmic vibration in your soul until Gabriel drops the Cosmic Bass. Jump up!
      Do you envision anything for the future -- these days, those days?
      May peace be with you. You are the light of the world.

    All the fluff and fakery of post-industrial, 2000s Western life, which taints most artistic scenes, seems to fall away here, leaving total authenticity about the scene. Dubstep achieves what a lot of writers, sculptors, visual artists strive for. Unpretencious authenticity. Beautiful to observe. A credit to their country. Good for Britain.

      "dragged the whole thing into being formulaic" - dubstep is formulaic. It takes the very simple premise of bass/drums and rolls with it. I mean "space, pace, weight" were and are the only defining features.
      Musicians don't sell out. They evolve. Sometimes, that evolution no longer fits in your back pocket and ticks the boxes you feel entitled for he music to tick as it were.
      As aforementioned, there are still amazing producers, djs, promoters and soundsystems doing amazing things. I'm currently listening to a Spotify playlist of over 2k tunes that fill all styles of dubstep, mostly released within the past three years...
