it’s crazy how kode9 talking about what went wrong with drum&bass was almost like an omen for what happened with dubstep.

[@rorz999]

The saddest part is the dubstep lot thought they would learn from the mistakes of drum & bass and garage and not go down the same path... that didn't last long

[@MurylloTk]

​@@rorz999tbf most of the UK dubstep scene didn't ruin itself, the genre was developing with different sounds already in the late 2000s, such as with Zomby's tekkier releases. The whole Brostep thing, and the shortly followed fall of grace of true dubstep, was with external influences, namely Skrillex and other wannabe melts from the US. Coki kind of started developing into making brostep with his 'Spongebob' track, but honestly it's nowhere near what garbage Skrillex made in 2010s.

[@Audunforgard]

Yeah! This is from 2006, IT must have been like just before that London Thug tune came out and kind of turned it into commercial fluff s

[@toby-y3c]

I really enjoy this interview, shame that the music is cut out though.

[@acsone3546]

So glad he played a Dub remix as his example. THAT is dubstep baby.

[@AaronLaZox]

this is great thank you red bull and thanks to whoever timestamped this in the description seriously

[@monsieurlepenguin6602]

Right, and the tracklist too, great efforts

[@-------a--------a-----t]

that site he mentions around 18:00, the archive of pirate radio shows - anyone got a lead on that in the year 2021? would love to dive into a more raw side of the history of these genres.

[@53gimmig35]

RinseFM nuked it. Sounds like things got pretty ugly there.

[@iceepilot]

check out hardscore

[@ilsaalsi857]

i'd love 2 go back in time and give steve a functioning microphone lol

[@hawkrolla]

How does an Interview with a producer wind up with such awful volume issues?

[@maxwatson9450]

ikr it is acc ridiculous i can barely hear it

[@milokt5391]

WHY DID YOU EDIT OUT THE SONGS???

[@CossRooper]

Obviously they removed them as to not risk copyright claims, strikes against their youtube account, and/or country blocks and takedowns. I don't blame them. I'd rather have the interview with no music versus no interview at all because it got blocked by KZbin.

[@MisaelCedillos1]

CossRooper very good point

[@Audunforgard]

Steve gives great interview s along with the unique tunes that encompass the Hyperdub universe. We had him over to play in Norway back in 2002/3... He Also gave a lecture on sonic warfare at a venue kind of like this back then. Sang. I should actually read that book, I believe he's written IT by now.

[@jcfregoso5087]

Is there a version of this with the music IN?

[@gonzogil123]

21:43min The reinforcement arrived hence fantasy, fat and all, was getting the best of them.

[@thejokersmoker]

wait what year is this interview from????

[@Bloodrayne556]

2006

[@gonzogil123]

21:05min They dont give up, but my money is on the fantasy.

[@jahmark9336]

This series is ruined by cutting the tunes, crucial really Red Bullshit Peace and love from Bristol England

[@sonnyobrien]

Theyre called breaks because if you dont cut out the copyright music theyll break your legs

[@dolorblind]

why is host dissing fruity lol

[@jamesmonoghan1281]

Yeah Croydon is so like Detroit lol! get outta here. It's great living in your own dystopia though eh!

[@gonzogil123]

13:55 min That is untrue about the jingles: plain non-sense. I, in my case, as it regards myself, do not agree.

[@Honorarkonsul1081]

What a cheap industry clown he actually is. And that was even before Dubstep got hyped in mainstream. Zero respect for his attitude.

[@sonnyobrien]

Why?? Industry clown? What are you even saying?

[@Smonsequenses]

What an absolutely ignorant take lmao

[@1425osint]

true , no wonder all the real dub heads disregard his label as nothing more than a pile of garbage beyond burial tunes lol
