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 :)
Been digging really deep into cats like Shades (Eprom + Alix Perez), Drone, G Jones, Tsuruda. Had some good bassweight drop from usuals like Distance as well.
Hard to pick a single release, so many bangers from last year. Trust by Eprom was probably the single tune I was most excited for. Shit was rolling around in my head over a year from an earlier Shades set.
Yes! Shades release this year was decent and I love most things Alix Perez puts out but Drone is one of my absolute favourites, anything he puts out is day one buy for me!
Don't think I heard Trust though, I'll have to go check that out, thanks :D
Juuust a wee Eprom single, but I first caught it on Shades' DEF set on ye olde youtubes. About as chaotic as it gets, real evil villain shit. Been loving some of these new heads pushing the sound into new genre blending places. Nice change of pace from the oversaturated riddim scene.
Dance with the Devil is such a sick album! Mixed a house party for NYE and at least 2 tracks off that tucked in. Tried to only mix 2023 releases, which was a fun challenge.
Ahhh yes, I do recognise this track but never knew the name chefs kiss
You got any mixes online I can check out?
My current thing I have been really enjoying is mixing in old 00s hip hop / r&b vocals into my dubstep mixes, just need to find a better source of acapellas but can't hate on some what's your fantasy or forget about dre over some sick bass lines xD
Lol, glad I was able to get you reintroduced!
Yee, finally got a fresh one up on the sound cloud: https://on.soundcloud.com/bukospooko Like I said, was mixing at a shindig for NYE, Hell themed party... This isn't that mix, but it's inspired by it hahaha. All tracks released 2023.
Oh hell yeah, mashing up a tune with sum'm familiar can have very nice results. Have you experimented much with stems? Pretty sure Virtual DJ, Serato, etc have a setting to turn hi-mid-low into like vox-instrument-drum. Been meaning to mess with that more. If it's even halfway decent at separating vox there's tons of potential for mashups on the fly!
Edit: Oh! You got any mixes to share as well? 🤙
Nice one, cheers for the link. I'm gonna give it a listen at work tomorrow!
Yeh I've been trying to branch out a little bit more rather than just solely mixing dubstep and trying to add in other things I enjoy and listen to. I haven't played around with stems etc as of right now but I have just got a new controller so I am trying to practice a new workflow and right now my mixing sounds a bit dodgy in places where I'm concentrating more on where the button I want is rather than the music xD
I currently use Traktor and I want to build up a sample deck full of clean acapellas of stuff I enjoy so it can just sit in deck 4 and I can call upon then whenever I want whilst mixing as normal with the other 3. That's the plan anyway!

This is my mixcloud although it doesn't have any super recent mixes as I haven't uploaded since they introduced having to pay to have more than 10 mixes on there.
