HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- A vinyl only Dubstep mix I recorded containing a selection of classic tunes from the genre's early days. I wasn't really going for great blends or trying to build up the energy level. Think of this as mainly a showcase of some of my favorite tunes from an incredible time in music history.
Tracklist:
Skream - Midnight Request Line (Tempa - 2005)
Toasty - Like Sun (Hotflush Recordings - 2004)
Gatekeeper - Tomb (Skull Disco - 2006)
Loefah - Rufage (DMZ - 2006)
Distance - Empire (Hotflush Recordings - 2005)
Mala - Lean Forward (DMZ - 2007)
Cyrus - Bounty (Tectonic - 2006)
Loefah & Skream - 28g (Tectonic - 2005)
Loefah - The Goat Stare (DMZ - 2005)
Distance - Dark Crystal (Boka - 2005)
Shackleton - Blood On My Hands (Skull Disco - 2006)
Kromestar - Marz Attak (Deep Medi Musik - 2007)
Mala - Changes (Deep Medi Musik - 2007)
Digital Mystikz - Misty Winter (Soul Jazz - 2006)
Coki - The End (DMZ - 2007)
Mala - Forgive (Deep Medi Musik - 2007)
I'd love to make this more of a regular thing. What do you guys think?

I'm from the U.S. When I was a freshman in college, I became really good friends with a british exchange student. He showed us two things mainly: dubstep and how to roll spliffs. For that year and summer, 2009-2010, we smoked and listened to dubstep everywhere and all day. back then, like no americans knew what dubstep was AT ALL, we were the only ones at my school playing it. eventually a 'version' of 'dubstep' got to the u.s. and some american artists made a really different interpretation of it. anyway, i'm glad i had those two years of magic where we discovered an awesome music genre.
I first heard of dubstep in 2009
I was buying dubstep vinyl from UK in 2007. Am american.
Im from the uk and defo like to say you got the best of brittish right there dude 😄
I got into british dubstep in 2007 through a drum n bass forum. I'm an American as well, and I hate that Americans killed this sound.
@@dopemopey i mean the sound lived on and evolved, and some of the brostep stuff wasn't actually that bad! its just sad it got lumped in with dubstep, and thus i guess people who were inclined maybe towards techno and dubtech and early jungle who'd have adored the real dubstep never were inclined to explore dubstep because its name got associated with something different, something that was fun definitely for adolescent me... but not dubstep. Im glad to be discovered this in my mid 20s as someone who lost the opportunity to be exposed to it in her teen years.
I'm a 39 year old woman.....I thought dubstep was just for young english rudeboys off their head on ketamine but finally decided I should listen before I judge..sensibly went straight to an old skool mix since I enjoy a lot of drum and bass the 90s/2000s and what can I say.. this is really fucking good!!! Deep, dark and atmospheric..... thanks for posting this!
I never understood how music genres are believed to be exclusively associated with a certain group or stereotype, isn't music taste very subjective and irrespective of drug activity or characteristics within society. I am a 30 year old woman now, this was my youth and still resonates with my soul, not to sound cheesy
i dont do drugs and i love this music.....
dubstep was around long before the ketamin junkie hype losers
the thing is that most of the tunes played in the video are from the times you were 20-22, I'm 38 now, and listened to all those bangers almost from day one
from the times when dubstep sounded more like dub and less like a machinegun.. call me old and nostalgic but i find really horrifying the direction the genre has evolved in.
I agree. The drops for new dubstep sound like somebody put a hyper and a compresser on a fax machine. Eew
2010s "dubstep" was when dub collided with garage, resulting in leads and drops along with almost pop-like vocals. Eventually, the vocals began to disappear leaving only leads and growls which somehow turned into a bunch of alien machinery noises
Short statement: I love old and energy of the new dub however old is fuxking gold🤙🏾
@the styx code that's true, but it's not an excessive amount, the rattattattattaa type, this is a few single rounds, it doesn't have it's own bassline when they "fire off", it is just a small effect in the song... :)
There is a whole new hybrid deep dubstep scene with fits so perfectly with the classic deep dubstep vibe. I hopped straight to it when I discovered that type of sound.
as someone who only ever heard the brostep side of dubstep, this is like way better, it flows smoother and does not feel like your getting hit in the head with a sledge hammer every second, its not about the heavy drop, its about the whole song
Yeah except the whole song is just boring. As a songwriter I cannot condone that anyone actually truly enjoys this, it's all to be accepted by the other hipsters and it was all started by one guy that dug it and everyone wanted to impress him by saying they dug it too. I don't believe anyone.
@@k.c.simonsen2 what are you on about
@@k.c.simonsen2 most people who like this genre like the bass, the hypnotic rhythm and trippy sfx. some are hipsters yeah but most aren't alot of people like this style better and i grew up with this kind of music. garage reggae dub drum and bass trip hop etc and classic dubstep is one of them. some people don't have the patience with there adhd tiktok brains i get that. its all a matter of preference
@@k.c.simonsen2 Behold, the shittiest take of the decade. If you struggle to wrap your mind around the hypnotic and cavernous rhythms of Dubstep and it's enjoyment you might want to reconsider your probably not very successful songwriting career
@@k.c.simonsen2 This is one of the worst takes I have ever seen.
I remember being on the bus going to work at 6am and this girl that looked like she slept past her alarm, was frantically doing her makeup heard the intro to request line, turned around and started dancing rocking back and forth like a mental patient in an insane asylum...... Turned around and widened her eyes at me touched my hand, grabbed her bag, sat next to me, reached across me, took my left earphone out to put in her left, then continued to do her makeup. We said not one word to each other and shared an entire scene and culture in silence. Her stop came then she left to go to work. Ive never seen her again since. There was no intimate connection we weren't about that vibe at all. It was just how it went. Exactly like that. Bless her soul. . . . Auckland City, New Zealand. 2007.
Wanted to introduce my kid to what a true dubstep is. Brought here and wow!
Truley the golden age of dubstep when deep bass lines met rough beats. Way better than all the screechy mid-range crap of nowadays. Great mix!
TheDJPCol the dark, wubby dubstep is making a comeback
@@pgo9202 and those who came for the screechy mid-range crap are hating it...
People have different music tastes what are you going on about. I like both just as much
@@pgo9202 Can you hit me with some artists/mixes?
@@bokenovskyjones If still interested look up Deep, Dark, and Dangerous. It's a label/collective ran by the duo Truth. It's got artists such as Distinct Motive, The Widdler, Khiva, Ternion Sound, Pushloop, and more who all contribute excellent Dubstep. Also listen to The Greys Ä, Roadsbeaf, B1t Crunch3r, and The Maker. There's plenty more than that, I use SoundCloud primarily if you follow them on there or look up similar you will find more.
now this is dubstep
*112th like and only reply after a couple years* Dubstep will always be dubstep, regardless of the decade. 😊
120th like and second reply long time follower first time commentator. Dubstep refers to the early era sound, new tings are Bro 😎 step ya nar?
Always Be
@Lloyd Frayne OK boomer
@@powerfuel297 Quiet child, the adults are talking.
This era of dubstep was just so revolutionary. It's dark, not too wobbly and was amazing to fry out to. Caspa, Rusko, Benga, Skream just phenominal music they released... love it man.
2020 listeners up in here? Great mix, smooth tunes, great lows. Proper early Dubstep. Thank you
CanadianCarlos 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Right now headbanging
2022
2022 rn lol lookin back to hat far and diff it sounded then to now and yeah I’m starting to watch now I’ll comment how I feel after lol xD
I could listen to Midnight Request Line in a loop forever
Same, fuckinghell
Fuck yah probably his best work as is dutch flowers
Saw the vinyl selling for a grand
@@sindye2172 good god
Blends beautifully with stagger
good selection of songs. nice to know people can still do this all on vinyl.
THANK YOU 😀😀😀😀 I want to learn vinyl. BTW.
Let's be real, he should perform
@@LiamTems All Clubs are closed.
@@Ratselmeister no shiz sherlock
You opened with Midnight Request Line. Yeah, I like you.
This mix is still a banger. 2022.
So at the ripe age of 45 I found a documentary about dubstep and thought what the hell, ill check it out. I always thought I hated dubstep but only just now found out I don’t like the new stuff. All the stuff I was listening to at the raves in early 2000’s that I thought was D-N-B and jungle was in part dubstep. Learn something new everyday. Fell in love with with the music all over again even in 2022. 👊🏽 Great mix man, love the tracks.
this style never went away its still going strong, just underground now like it always has been. The US pop dubstep just clouded the view...
I remember walking around the streets of Luanda, Angola in ‘06 kuduro, afro house and Dubstep was playing everywhere. Awesome times! Big up UK!
This is the mix I've been looking for. These are the tunes I've been needing. This was the dopest period for Dubstep. It was so underground. Miss those days. Bless up anyone rocking these tunes in 2022! BIG UP!
2023 friend 🎉
I'm with the cool kids of years ago now.
Dubstep was honestly more then Music, it's almost like a drug for the ears.
Idoser dubstep!!!
Dubstep was a very real era. Good times
Hell yeah 🙌
I love original dubstep sooooo much
dude i am so jealous, you own all those classic beat!
This is literally a gift. Massive ups
Damn, dubstep went from sounding like a main menu theme (at least by listening to the first song) to being a drill repeated at different notes
This brings back memories of the late 2000's, we had a huge Dubstep and DnB culture here in New Zealand back then. It's cliché but I gotta say I miss those old days.
Yeah bro, Mt.Eden Dubstep was the shyt back then eh?
Oh to have been living in London in the 2000's to experience this music evolution. Surely one of the last sounds to have been developed with true locality, before the internet made all music world wide. Grateful to the internet that I was able to hear this music in the mid-late 2000's, but imagine being there when it was all unfolding. Top mix too, mate!
Real dubstep.
Alexandru Jurje yeah
dubstep>brostep
Stuff from NiCKLeZ sure
Stuff from NiCKLeZ, O yes! 🙂
cringe
2019 and still listening
I am from Brazil and still listening 2006 real dubstep to this day. thx
Came looking for some early stuff. Really good chill genre. Don't know how it became so extremely far removed from this.
money :(
I honestly don't understand why people are getting their hate boner about brostep and riddim. I listen to both this and excision, depending on my mood. I also listen to jazz and on the other side I enjoy hardstyle (if it is well produced). Just because one genre was hyped and the other was not, doesn't mean it is dead at all. No, for me it's the opposite. I really like underground genres. Hype isn't always good for a genre. The more hype the more commercial it gets. Classic dubstep is still existent today, artists like Commodo or Loefah are still making great stuff so why are people hating modern "dubstep"?
as someone who got into electronic music because of "brostep"... this stuff is just as cool in its own fashion. Definitely a hell of a lot more chill haha. But I gravitated to the gritty brostep/riddim sound because I played guitar in metal bands... and that mid range, ear destroying sound is what we aimed for 🤣 If this is what "True" dubstep is, I can see why maybe the OG dubstep heads would hate the new shit.
This is EXACTLY the same shit I went through as a kid with a dad who loved Sabbath and Deep Purple haha. I thought of "Metal" as Lamb of God, Trivium, Bullet for my Valentine, and he would SHIT on my form of metal because its "too much, not musical and all they do is scream".
Same thing here just a different Genre.
Regardless, I love both!
Goes to show how things and people are always changing.
Heavy mix, deep rollers, plenty of sublow tunage, smooth transitions. Keep these classic dub mixes coming!!!!
What a mix. Jumped in my car and fancied either some early dmz or middle years coki and this mix was suggested to me. Mate by toasty i was sold, great quality on the upload, made my car sub sing.
Your mixing style isnt as hectic as hatcha or n-type but its as smooth as both of them; great selection and that empires is insane. Thanks for making my drive home that bit more nostalgic.
Ps i feel like we were all part of something very very special.
There's something satisfying about watching the vinyl artwork spin. Nice track selection.
Like Sun is such a beautiful tune. Sick selection
please record more mixes with this true dubstep sound pre 2009!!! please! :) we miss the dubstep so much
It's like I went to sleep for all these and then you just woke me up again. Straight vibing in '23. That retro future sound 🔥🔥🔥
and yes you should definitely make this a regular thing!
I'm glad you made at least two mixes. I'm going to use them as a source to find more and make my own.
I don't know how I got her, I don't use RUclips to listen to music, but man these bring me back. I managed to stumble my way into dubstep through Burial's Untrue back in high school when it first dropped. As an American diving head-first into the genre, it was hard to get anyone to listen to this wonderful genre with me, but man am I glad I found it.
Solid, proper sounds. I'm sad I didnt discover the vid when initially posted. But since found, I've run it a least once a week :). Excellent work on the deck!
Nice mix! I like how you let the tracks „breathe“. Long transitions, played nearly all songs completely. Very nice. Better than most mixes on YT where the track changes every 30 seconds!
Fr
Gotta love that look at me sample
Yesss brother
finding old styles of edm is like unearthing ancient artefacts
This isn't edm. Just electronic music. edm is an umbrella term for shitty mainstream commercial electronic music made for the masses. Also original dubstep is pretty alive. check deep medi or boka. and if u want newer labels check navy cut or system
Edm - Lol! Keep digging tho ;)
@@xorbdubstep OMG Shockwave does some pretty good stuff with classic style songs mixed with newer styles.
Well you've just made me feel really old. This was the music of my young adulthood
Big up to this DJ, pure Dubstep from its Roots ..
Thank you for the awesome Mix! 🎉
Like how the delay was played around with on that first one with alternating being offset and then synced
Ahhh as soon as I heard Midnight Request Line I knew this was going to be majestic. Brings me back to my college years ... broooo I love you ✌️❤️😍
Such a good tracklist, good mixing, and the camera angle wasn't bad. Great mix
I have to give you props for your selection, and the respect to citing the artists. Good on you for being legit. Real DJs are sexy! Seriously though, looking forward to hearing other mixes of yours on SC
When you could still hear the dub in dubstep
Thank you very much! Love and blessings.
Who else is here after watching Timbah on Toast's video? I wish I had an appreciation for old school dubstep back when the hardcore, aggressive dubstep was taking the mainstream by storm
Great video he did
takes me back :)
Loefah’s tune never get old
that sample from Skanners is so dope, timeless.....
When u started with Skream, I clicked like. Simple as that, already knew it was going to be a big set.
Mixin smooth as hell
Good mix. Also cool to see a live vinyl mix after a while.
Wow this genre was totally hijacked and ruined after this period. I've never explored dubsteps roots before but this is a whole different world.
It wasn’t ruined, it evolved into something new, but nothing keeps anyone from making an oldschool dubstep track in 2022, it’s just that fewer people are into it now, so less people bother doing these kinds of tracks
@@raphaelpoitou8609it's like sayin that mumble rap is an evoution of rap music . i think you find a lot of oldschool dubstep in the uk.
@@wzroq maybe more like saying that mumble rap is an evolution starting at old school 90s hip hop but yeah
And I knew it existed on paper but never actually heard much because it wasn't as readily available...
Just shut up and enjoy the music. Quit being a hater. It's a really poor personality trait.
Beautiful
Never gets old ❤
When ruffage came out of the sleeve i felt the urge to bang on the nearest wall. God dub step was great back then. Bless up to all the old heads up in here in ‘24!
Loefah - The Goat Stare ---- WOW!
Real Dubstep pure class...
Proper Dubstep. Good mix.
Thankyou for inspiring me to go back through my own collection and get back in the mix.This is a great mix.I’m listening on a hot sunny day in the post industrial/industrial landscape of Ne England and this is a perfect soundtrack.Good good stuff keep it coming man👊
finally... real dubstep
heavy sounds, each track transitions perfectly so much depth and atmosphere
Such a great mix. I keep coming back to it.
thank you so much for a good classic dubstep trip with this mix, some good classics it was indeed. Have a nice day :)
You are a serious Master Basser!
Phat :)) shown me some new tunes here as well. Thanks man.
But for my liking to game Barotrauma i would not have searched for the accordion remix video and would not have started search for similar good music ultimately resulting in finding this mix. Life is full of small happy moments and this is one of them :)
Yessah bangahs from the get go. The old Warehouse parties
What a wonderful set
This music helps me relax riding the sub bass into a deep slumber or sometimes a super clear head nothing but the bass and hihats guiding me
Great quality audio
Brings me back to 2008 for me when nocturnal concert was in San Bernardino 🔥
Really nice mix, it's actually chill unlike what you mostly hear nowadays.
So damn good! Enjoying! Thanks!
Back to revisit the classics again
Mayne nat Warriors sample creeped right upon me! Too good!
Esto si es Dubstep y no lo de ahora que es pura licuadora y ruiditos de robots. 🔥🔥🔥
Perfect for a blunt passing session 👽
This is a beautiful Mix.
This makes me want to start up my rockyfistscats channel up again
I've got most of these vinyls too, nice to see us old schoolers are still about. There are some decent new beats coming out that sound old school enough for my liking, but not enough.
This set is priceless in 2020! Dubstep is quite tricky to mixing. Greatness all the way 🔊 🔥
Love watching real beatmatching, a dying art in the age of pre-recorded sets. Big up!
It's about on time for a new one of these :)
im high rn but im mesmerizied watching you do this... I wanna be a DJ so bad..
And I call the 2008-2011 period classic XD
Wicked tunes mate! Good selection and good mixing. Liked and favorited!
I really don't like all the people saying this is "real" dubstep, the sound has evolved to something just as good
Yeah nah, this is the sound, if you make a different sound call it something else. The new stuff is all riddim now anyway
i was stupid to think i could get through to a group of elitists i guess
Well you tell us what you think is real dubstep and give is the link to prove your point
@@johnjohns8863 every form of dubstep makes up dubstep as a whole. it's not one or the other
Heck yeah, I agree ! I really like og dubstep but you gotta admit that other styles, like Future Riddim, are something else ! Each style for each mood ✨
Охрененный микс!
У самого много релизов классического дабстепа.
УВАЖУХА МАН!!!!!
please do more of these, you have a mental collection
Old school quality music
this is great. thank you for making this!
those were the times man... awesome mix!
*Wubs for life!!!*
