Favourite release of 2023? (self.dubstep)

We haven't really had any discussion within this community so far so to try and lure some of you lurkers out a little what is everyone's favourite release of the year just gone?

For me it is a toss up between

Shu - D-BLK012 - https://d-blk.bandcamp.com/album/d-blk012

and Zha - Ramta Jogi - https://on.soundcloud.com/bLxhC

Shu probably wins out just because of being released in digital and not a shitty inferior dead format.

So what are everyone else's?

I wish I followed it enough to have a favourite release. I'm a dubstep poser ;)

I come here for recs though.

How do you know when you have graduated from poser cause I still feel like I fit into that category xD

If you have been coming here and checking out what I post then you have probably been following it more than you realise as I try to post 2 things a day and it will always be new releases until I run out them and then I dip into older stuff I know :D

Thanks for dropping by either way, do you have a favourite regardless of release?

It's older but I have a soft spot for this album: https://captainpanicmonolith.bandcamp.com/album/monolith -- which is only marginally dubstep in places. More like a love song for Mass Effect 😍

Awesome, thanks for the recommendation, I'll give it a listen but just from the intro you'd probably dig the stuff posted over in the atmospheric bass community as well if you haven't already checked it out :)
