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. J
Rocking the H²O Nuendo and Battery cracks for Windows, no doubt. Man, my nostalgia for the early 2000's has been intensifying lately. Very exciting times.
@@h.c.49it is now the most saught after dubstep record. it's one of the most important releases in the genre. originally sold for just a few pounds now worth hundreds.
@@h.c.49 those records were only pressed one time when the genre had not exploded yet in the early 2000's. Therefore there are not a lot of them out there. nowadays they sell for upwards of $350-$500 for a single record. Also, welcome m8 enjoy the bass waves.
Happy to hear, thanks for taking the time! We uploaded this mostly for ourselves, just to save it from disappearance, but it's becoming our most popular upload.
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.
Being on the other side of the pond, and trying to keep up with the underground was a bit of a challenge. Was kind of fun introducing a LOT of people to dubstep back in the day, made me feel like a gatekeeper.
There was a small scene on the East Coast with Joe Nice that played starting in 2004 - 2005. Dubstep was just sucked up by the California LA party scene with Skrillex and others.
5:51 at some point... I just started dying laughing... literally hard... out loud actually. The absurdity of the stupid dancing puddles... at that point in the video, I considered in my head what the hell I was actually seeing while focusing solely on the music, in the moments prior. HAHAHHA
pretty sure its whiteboi - trouble, ive been looking and i cant find it anywhere. best bet is to track down whiteboi himself and ask him for a download
@@vadimislearningguitar4977 a dubplate is like a test vinyl- it is usually not as durable as normal vinyl- back then everyone was still preferring to dj off of vinyl- so if you wanted to play your new track in a club you could make a dubplate to play to crowds, or give to djs.. you could make one or a few, but nomal vinyl you need to make 200
Commercialism thrives on fucking up great things. Hiphop was also underground first, and in the 90's most of the best stuff was still underground while commercialism was fucking it up in the mainstream, as another example.
the underground is and always has been there, you just stopped looking for it and keeping up to date. See - Sentry Records/HVYWGHT nights, System nights, Sub Dub nights, bare labels still, too.
How many producers sold out … and churned out garbage in compilation after compilation … dragged the whole thing into being formulaic. Ruined it all. Stopped pushing boundaries. Check out District’s earlier stuff.
@@Dubdroid I was instrumental, alongside Hedmuk/Trusik in pushing Districts early releases, mixes and radio slots via my 45hz website back in the day. "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...

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Eyyyy TH-cam algorithm, THIS VIDEO IS UNDERRATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The fact that this documentary sounds like it's been recorded through an sp1200 make it 10 times better lol
Really weird watching this and spotting myself a couple of times. Bristol 2005 to 2007 really was some of the best time of my life so far.
So far. Top man.
That Taiko Riddim is so fucking good
Anyone watching this and wanting to get more into Dubstep like this, start with Dubstep Allstars Vol 1

Yeah, i also had a lot of collective mind experiences. It can be traced back to neoplatonism or platon in general.
Just a bunch of kids, nothing special, now look at en! Really fascinating watching and a bunch of tunes that still sounds strong today.

Seeing haunted/anti war dub on the shelf around minute 34 hurts my heart
I know nothing about dubstep, I don't know how exactly I got here, and I'm curious what you mean.

Didn't get it then, don't get it now.
Early dub step was great, now it is awful and obnoxious
You oversimplify.
There's insanely good stuff everywhere. Check local radio stations, labels. Old heads all over
I think he is trying to say “Riddim is trash.”
I've never seen a genre go from underground (and good) to commercial (and fucking terrible) like dubstep.
Like most shit things we got the yanks to thank for that
