@@it_is_ni 5 Years of Hyperdub, Tectonic Plates Volume 2 check this two compilations, then you can navigate on your own from the tracks you like most, cheers
I'm a techno guy and I still got Midnight Request Line and Night. Both awesome tracks and I'm happy to own them on wax. Caspa was right about how it fits into some house sets as well.
It doesn't matter whether you're into house, techno, dubstep, jungle or anything else - there's records that totally transcend genre. Things that you hear and go, "That's badness..." no matter what you're into.
I couldn't believe it when I saw this video on here, this side of the old dubstep barely has views on youtube uploads and generally is more underground, also I'm not even British and most of these tracks I was familiar with and knew
this could've easily been a full hour and i still would've wanted more. real shit for real heads, when the scene and sound was pure and made with love and care. also cool to see all these folks reminisce. great selections (including a few tunes new to me), great lineup, fucking great episode - def hoping for more dubstep related entries down the line!
who cares lol, people like different music. ive never understood this. the people who listen to brostep would never have listened to original dubstep and vice versa. the fact that they share a suffix is just circumstantial
Tim Coleman that’s nothing to do with what I said. People think brostep IS dubstep and have never even heard of the term “brostep”. It’s a conflation of terms which is totally wrong. You wouldn’t call Blues music Metal would you? So why accept it here?
Tim Coleman you’re totally wrong anyway. The people who listened to brostep did listen to dubstep. Hell, the people that created brostep started at dub. But the point is, people don’t know what dubstep is, thinking it’s all stuff like Skillex’s shite when it simply isn’t.
Tim Coleman also, think you need to look up “circumstantial”. Because your use of that is wrong too. Brostep evolved from dubstep, so there’s nothing remotely circumstantial about it.
How do y'all make your music sound so distinct!!! Man, hearing these tunes have re-awakened something deep in me. I can only wish to make music as impactful as this. Good memories tied to these songs, aged 14-18, mixing these alone to myself in my bedroom :'D
Stole Caspa's pullup move when I saw this vid of him playing in town, 11 years ago: th-cam.com/video/CybLub109u8/w-d-xo.html Was too young for the clubs that time seen
@@cmjones83 I think they're both Dutch postcodes. But yeah, easy mistake to make. Great track, should have been an underground classic but it slipped under the radar a bit.
First episode of the series where I actually knew quite a few of the tracks! I was mindblown when I heard these tunes for the first time in late 2000s. Awesome series, love it - now Garage episode!
Gotta love early dub, mate used to love dubstep warz around 2006 on radio one back in the day. Was some serious artists about back then. Big up the oldschool dub legends!
i'm a techno/ebm head ususally but one night i went to a Mala gig in Brixton: the groove and rum with ginger beer and i had one of the best nights ever.
Great selection, brings back lots of happy memories of when I moved to London in 2006, living in Brixton going to DMZ at Mass every month. The atmosphere was unreal, so much positive vibes from everyone.
Can we all just appreciate the amount of BADASSERY headphones these artists are wearing, from classics to end-game high-end (or ultra-fi) cans! 🎧🎶🔥 - Mala Audeze MX4 - Joker Rosson Audio RAD-0 - Martyn AiAiAi TMA-02 (though could be earlier TMA models) - Illa Brugal and Caspa Sennheiser HD 25 / HD 25 Plus - NikNak Behringer HPX2000 🤘🏽
Got some nice headphones in this episode. I'm seeing Mala with Audeze MX4s and Joker with the Rosson Audio Rad-0s. I like seeing electronic artists using high end headphones for mixing as an alternative to speakers.
I don’t want to brag, but I had every tune and producer named while the intro was still playing and I have sold at least one copy of each (except joker psychedelic runway and breakage feat. Roots Manuva) in the record store I was working at back at the time. What an awesome time of my life. Will never forget.
Damn this brings back memories! Dubstep was played on the first raves I went to when I was 17. Kinda slipped away when the brostep took it over. Realise now that this was some quality music
Fantastic stuff. So many memories from those halycon days (or daze even!). The first even DMZ I went to was at the last one they did at 3rd Base before going upstairs to Mass. FWD was a no-brainer - every flippin' week! Would loved to have heard some Distance and Pinch in the blind test too - absolute dons of the scene back then too.
Joker wasnt too big in the US, glad I got to see him in Denver. Going on a eurotrip in April would love to find some rooms playing this era of dubstep. Certainly miss it, brostep wave in the US drowned this style out way too fast here.
This was a lot of fun! 🤣

golden era of music! i will love forever gigs with deep medi tunes.
Those last 2 escaped me!! 7.5 / 10 as I couldn't bloody remember the name of Moog dub. Ashamed 😓. Big up everyone!!
🐐🐐🐐
big up yourself G
The original don. Thank you so much and Coki too... Was surprised Goblin didnt drop
Never clicked with dubstep, but after watching this I've realised that I've just been listening to the wrong stuff.
This needs to be the top comment
Yeah! I would LOVE a soundcloud user/playlist filled with this style. Anyone?

Original dubstep not crap brostep
Shoutout to whoever selected these tracks!
🤝
Yeah so rad, I'm not even a dubstep head but I enjoyed. Bigups
Man all these guess the track video's are fire lovibg all of of them haha
For real!
This is a good introduction to the genre.
That’s what this series is about
Grateful
@@ElectronicBeatsTV
@@ElectronicBeatsTV this stuff make me want to make even more dubstep stuff lmmfao
I love how the record is supposed to be revealed and it's a whitelabel anyway
That's badass
love how ur profile is a white label
.thought the same..have a lot of records white labeled..and dont know who madi it..underground groovin!
love how Mala and Caspa both guess at 2562's tune by saying "3024", thinking they were way off, but 3024 is the name of Martyn's label.
Mala is such a lovely human being. All of them actually; their genuine love for music is visible in the excitement in their eyes.
i never realised 2000s dubstep is so good...
how old are you ... c'mon ...
@@fwerf5084For real, the mate missed out BIG time.
Check out This is Dubstep Anthem by Black Butter, its only stuff like that
Welcome to the cult! :)
The underground is still going strong. Check out White Peach, it's a good label for 140.
I'm a techno guy and I still got Midnight Request Line and Night. Both awesome tracks and I'm happy to own them on wax. Caspa was right about how it fits into some house sets as well.
Also with Funky UK... mmmmmoooahhh

I'm a trance guy and know Midnight Request Line as well :D
i exclusively listen to tibetan throat singing and i recognised midnight request line too
@@lostwoods95 You love to see it
Seen the title. Instant click. I started with this kind of dubstep.
I couldn't believe it when I saw this video on here, this side of the old dubstep barely has views on youtube uploads and generally is more underground, also I'm not even British and most of these tracks I was familiar with and knew
I love Mala´s reaction to Rubber Chicken at 3:03, really felt that wobble.
Old dubstep/garage from UK i liked, when it exploded 10 years later (skrillex) i couldn't dig it.
This track list is dope.
Exactly what i wanted to say
I think that 09'- 12' Dubstep/ garage fusion era was another golden age for dance music.
this could've easily been a full hour and i still would've wanted more. real shit for real heads, when the scene and sound was pure and made with love and care. also cool to see all these folks reminisce. great selections (including a few tunes new to me), great lineup, fucking great episode - def hoping for more dubstep related entries down the line!
I wish people remembered THIS as dubstep instead of the brostep it became :(
who cares lol, people like different music. ive never understood this. the people who listen to brostep would never have listened to original dubstep and vice versa. the fact that they share a suffix is just circumstantial

I first started with brostep, and now I’m back to the root. ;)
Mala is such an OG and the nicest guy, so humble and just all around an awesome human.
i miss dubstep, good old days!
It's still being made?
@@andymcclure989 Sure thing, but i feel like the hype was stronger back then. Tho i still check the new stuff for sure!
2562/a made up sound makes some of the greatest tracks I’ve ever heard
oh yeah, he is so underrated, imo
True
What happened to him? Last release is 2017 according to Discogs. Love his stuff!
Massively underrated! Wicked producer
No idea dubstep was awesome
So sick! Full of slammers!
👌🏻
Midnight Request Line first dubstep track I ever heard, blew my young mind
I heard it played at FWD for the first time. Was mindblowing.
I heard or first time today, and it did the same :)
Skepta brought it to me.
Funny thing is that its actually more of a grime track. ;) - its a classic!
@@saftpackerl How on earth is it a grime track?
Saw Mala on the thumbnail. Clicked SO FAST. Love this series and love that it knows true dubstep ♥
These Blind Test videos have exposed me to so much great music, that I would have never heard otherwise. Thank you so much!

Try designing and synthesizing your own sounds and patches instead of using other people's presets and samples.
Id love to see malas process. His records are incredible
The editing on this one is more than excellent.
🙏
"It's that guy with numbers in his name."
*Procede with pointing random numbers, trying to guess his name.
😬
They were getting mixed up with Martyn's label, 3024.
Its like its a made up sound or something ;)
@@cmjones83 I think they're both Dutch postcodes. But yeah, easy mistake to make. Great track, should have been an underground classic but it slipped under the radar a bit.
@@laurentduval5094 That's right, they are
First episode of the series where I actually knew quite a few of the tracks! I was mindblown when I heard these tunes for the first time in late 2000s. Awesome series, love it - now Garage episode!
I've never had a series on YT that i've loved more than this.
I feel so fucking old. I swear it was only yesterday that all these were the sound of the future
7:00 Martyn showing off his vintage Philips logo tattoo. Such a stylish way to represent Eindhoven, big up
Painful nostalgia for this beautiful genre. The only era of dubstep x
3:03 is the most perfect reaction ever
Needs to be a meme
that bassface
Fuck I miss dubstep, bigup getting Mala, Martyn and Caspa on this one, legends! So happy to hear 2562 in there as well.
From 3:22 on - masterpiece editing here. Well done.
Almost cry watching to this. Dubstep is forever.
Gotta love early dub, mate used to love dubstep warz around 2006 on radio one back in the day. Was some serious artists about back then. Big up the oldschool dub legends!
That 2562 one still gives me shivers. That album.... Amazingggggg.
Mala digging his own track makes me smile... DMZ and Mala on his own lifts me up.
Sweet memories of discovering dubstep back then, still loving it!
Been going through the video playlist. This is one of the best things on lockdown TV.
i'm a techno/ebm head ususally but one night i went to a Mala gig in Brixton: the groove and rum with ginger beer and i had one of the best nights ever.
Love how everyone went off when Bengal & Coki's Night dropped.
11:45 i'm dying at Joker saluting his own tune lol
So many classics and dubstep heroes in this video
Big ups
Great selection, brings back lots of happy memories of when I moved to London in 2006, living in Brixton going to DMZ at Mass every month. The atmosphere was unreal, so much positive vibes from everyone.
rubber chicken was my go to track when testing out subwoofers , crazy deep bass
my man Mala with the Audeze cans jheeezzzz
3k headphones what a cheapskate
Before Dubstep became a meme
I was a Croydon kid when this whole scene was coming up
So refreshing hearing these classics
Can we all just appreciate the amount of BADASSERY headphones these artists are wearing, from classics to end-game high-end (or ultra-fi) cans! 🎧🎶🔥

Audeze MX4
- Joker
Rosson Audio RAD-0
- Martyn
AiAiAi TMA-02 (though could be earlier TMA models)
- Illa Brugal and Caspa
Sennheiser HD 25 / HD 25 Plus

🤘🏽
No.
I love how for the Breakage track the first line on it actually announces that it's Breakage! 11:52
I’m a jungle/DnB man but used to dip into the dubstep room back when these tunes were out. Proper nostalgic hearing them again.
Got some nice headphones in this episode. I'm seeing Mala with Audeze MX4s and Joker with the Rosson Audio Rad-0s. I like seeing electronic artists using high end headphones for mixing as an alternative to speakers.
That isn’t Joker mate.
@@sffan34 I just went off the pictures in the beginning. Mala and Joker in the bottom left have the headphones I was talking about.
I do all my mixing on Audeze lcd x and they have changed my life. I don’t no longer need speakers unless I am cross checking
THIS IS REAL DUBSTEP!!!!
I don’t want to brag, but I had every tune and producer named while the intro was still playing and I have sold at least one copy of each (except joker psychedelic runway and breakage feat. Roots Manuva) in the record store I was working at back at the time. What an awesome time of my life. Will never forget.
Just realized: I was 18 years, when Midnight Request Line got released. I spoiled my whole youth on tunes like these!
Great, so now you destroy our average age here 😉
Got em all but 2562 and Breakage - cheers for some 'new' classics!
How the fuck could anyone not get breakage when there's a "BREAKAGE" sample in literally the first 2 seconds of the song 😂
"making me miss SUBDUB" 🙌🏾 Meeee too Sista
So many good memories to these tracks!
I remember these tracks from when I started to listen to the dubstep. Nice memories, thanks TEB!
Has there been a garage episode of this series?
Let's make it happen
Not yet but I've been saying the same for months
now there is
This one was very entertaining to watch. Featuring proper Dubstep legends.
This brought back some great memories growing up in the UK. Jeeeeezzz
Fire tunes all the way around 🔥🤘
I got all correct except the "Moog Dub". Skream, Loefah and the entire Big Apple fam gave my life a rhythm.
this reminds me of one of my fav clubs in Christchurch NZ DOUBLE DROP on High street early 2000s offt
Need more Dubstep episodes of these blind tests of old school dubstep tracks.
Memory Lane right here! Heavy tunes!
UK Garage episode next please!
consistently good episodes. i never gave dubstep a fair shake until today it seems
Thanks for making go into some of my ancient hard drives and dig up all the early 2000’s dubstep! 🔥🔥🔥
My god 2000s dubstep is so fucking good
Damn this brings back memories! Dubstep was played on the first raves I went to when I was 17. Kinda slipped away when the brostep took it over. Realise now that this was some quality music
Goosebumps all the way.
Ugh. Such a good series! Maybe my fave episode yet
So glad I checked your page. Loving this series
I'm happy to have almost all of these in my collection and that people love them as much as i do. Meditate on bassweigt!
Ha, I did not know the Egoless version of Night. You HAVE to check that one out, though! Thanks Mala:).
It's incredible. Wish there were more covers like that,
that feeling when yu know every single track, feels wonderful man
7:00 Goosebumps each n every!
Only real classic tunes!! I remeber Rusco playing these tracks all the time. Great times!
Oh man, that was great. This is basically what brought me to electronic music.
This is awesome! Really focusing in on those foundational tracks that inspired so many. Don't forget these ancient memories!!
Wow! Great job at the track selection. No Skrillex shit 👍
ah the golden days! all these tracks used to be staple in my sets back then. nicely selected!
Love watching Mala skanking out to the Caspa tune
YOU GUYS ARE MY BIGGEST INSPIRATION THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS CLASSIC HISTORY WITH US
Whoa! Goosebumps in the first seconds. right in the feels! Nice track collection.
What a great style Dubstep is. It’s for lovers that’s for sure
Fantastic stuff. So many memories from those halycon days (or daze even!). The first even DMZ I went to was at the last one they did at 3rd Base before going upstairs to Mass. FWD was a no-brainer - every flippin' week!
Would loved to have heard some Distance and Pinch in the blind test too - absolute dons of the scene back then too.
6:06 massive respect for this move !
Legendary tracks. They all seem awesome. Also, excellently edited video 👍
Joker wasnt too big in the US, glad I got to see him in Denver. Going on a eurotrip in April would love to find some rooms playing this era of dubstep. Certainly miss it, brostep wave in the US drowned this style out way too fast here.
Such classic tunes. This was so fun. Thanks!
Amazing to see the evolution of dubstep between 2000 and 2020
This was so so good! Great seeing Mala and Caspa on this
this took me back - nostalgia trippin.
Enjoyed this one, early dubstep was massive!
Gutes Zeug auf jeden Fall. Man bekommt Lust wiedermal mehr Dubstep zu hören.
Dope track selection TEB. Love hearing Mala comment too.
Great memories!
Good scores all around. Didn't know any of them, but dubstep was a genre I missed completely 😅
It's never too late
Excellent editing lads ... thumbs up
