We rocked up to see Skream at Consortium on Saturday and I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’ve tried to get into dubstep before and not done too well, and I think I know why now.
Skream was awesome, the atmosphere was great and everyone seemed really into it. I guess it must have been different from playing the London shows cos dubstep’s not that big a scene down here but it went down great. I sweated my face off.
I dont think you can really get that into dubstep until you experience it in a club with a full on soundsystem and a great atmosphere.
Here’s Skream’s (and dubstep’s) biggest anthem to date, Midnight Request Line
Skream – Midnight Request Line
And possibly the next big dubstep tune, went down a treat on Saturday and the single seems to have sold out everywhere on vinyl
Benga & Coki – Night (sample)
