Same O (Too Much!)
AC23 (Formant, Wobble)
L-J (Sub FM, Sciatica)
A13 (Heavy Innit)

Funktion 1 Sound
$15 entry

It’s fair to say the dubstep scene has splintered and refracted into myriad Sub(bass)styles over the last couple of years, but at the epicentre of the scene are a few artists who have maintained the original spirit of the style while alloying it successfully with influences that were always hovering on the edges, but never fully integrated. Silkie is one of those artists…who’s heated elements of deeper house and synth driven soul around the glowing core of DMZ’s bassbins to create one of the lushest fusions in the scene. This is set to be one of the biggest Too Much! parties yet, get ya horns ready.

Silkie is one of those artists, hailing from the hotbed of South London, he's heated elements of deeper house and synth driven soul around the glowing core of DMZ's bassbins to create one of the lushest fusions in the scene. 'City Limits' is a collection of 9 tracks exploring this style with velveteen synths descended in the tradition from Larry Heard to MJ Cole and so forth till they're meshed with the rattling patterns and insistent bass pulse of dubstep. This is dubstep music with one (respectful) eye on the ladies and the other on the floor and for those reasons it's a brilliant summer heater and the perfect example of the congruity of house and dubstep. F*ck it, it's all dance music innit?! Top album.

Ambiguous statement imo. What is fake dubstep then?

Any of the shit which has come out the last 2 years, and im talking about the ravey stroke ur cock shite. Not the Mala/Krypic Minds/Martyn stuff. That is real dubstep... And i dont mean shit in a general term. I mean the shit dubstep(Nero,16 BIT and all that noisy midpange crap).

Post by **fooishbar** » Mon Dec 21, 2009 8:38 pm

what do you know about dubstep anyway, you play funky

seriously though, it does have to have weight ... weight, space and 138.
