Dubstep on Ramsey St

Everyone's favorite soap is now aiming to appease the masses with a cheeky reference to the genre of dubstep in one of their recent episodes. One can't help but think it was to mollify and associate with their solid following/fan base in the UK (i.e where the genre has its roots).

Various street press and other opinionated publications now consider Caspa & Rusko to be sell outs due to their new found notiriety (Their Fabric mix was fucking killer). Along with Skream...apparently they have all succumb to the almighty dollar. I haven't really seen much evidence to back this up, but street press is gospel yeah?

Dubstep is one of the fastest growing genres I can think of and the crew/scene in the UK seems to be really tight and dedicated. I've been lucky enough to see Rusko and Harmonic 313 live and they are genuinely talented composers. I thought I'd post some tracks that I like regardless of popularity. Some left field minimal and heavier tracks, enjoy.

Caspa - Back to '93

Ital Tek - Red Sky

DMZ - Ancient Memories (Skream Remix)

Skream - Midnight Request Line

Benga - Night

Armand Van Helden - Bonkers (Doorly Dub Remix)

Bird Peterson - Zutopong
