Yesterday I was in Lyon, France, for Les Nuits Sonores, where Mala was playing and it was an amazing set with classic masterpieces and new bangers ! Such a cool experience ! But today, I was at the airport to getting back home and while I was wandering in the Duty Free section with my little brother, I just saw him ! I wasn’t sure but I was sure hahaa, I was like "Hey ! Sorry are you Mala ?" and he was like "Yeah appreciate bro !". Maybe 7 seconds of Interaction but it was really cool and he is really kind ! It made my day hahaaa !

Looking for best way to find and DL individual tracks. Anybody have a favorite site/database to search & find without going to each individual artist's bandcamp/website/etc? Would like to avoid piracy if possible but I'm open to everything :)

I know I shouldn’t be complaining because I got to see him in the first place, but the energy he brought to SF is NOWHERE near the energy he is bringing to the shows in all these other videos of the tour. He didn’t mutter a single word on the mic for the entire set which isn’t the case on any videos in other cities. I know I’m just being salty, but hey… I’m just a little salty… I drove 6 hours for that show. I just wonder what it is it about SF that made him seem so much less engaged.

And before someone says “The DJ is there to play music not to talk,” that’s just a goofy take because Skream along with majority of other producers talk on the mic at their shows to hype the crowd and connect with them.

Edit: Thank you for the downvotes 🙏🏾

So this is my first post on this thread. Long story short, I am new to the OG dubstep scene. Over in the states, and was introduced to all the brostep, but was interested in its origins and history and here we are. I am now obsessed with all this stuff. I love to collect this all on vinyl. Enough of my tangent. I did see this posted on social media and was instantly on the hunt for it. I love all the deep medi labels and the art style, but I hear these were released way back and are limited. Would love for an official release on this again!

Also can we just mention the mastery of this art? Mala in the middle of the poster and next to him is Coki and Loefah (Digital Mystikz). Pure genious!

Does anybody know where I can download the ID Gangstas, by Oris Jay? According to J:Kenzo it was supposed to release soon on Texture records as of his Subtle show, on 12/8/2024, where he plays it. I am having trouble finding it online though. It starts at 35:09. Absolute beast of a track, I simply must have it, if possible.

Recently (last year or so) I have bought a couple of early DMZ records I've always wanted. Not in perfect condition but a little below market value on discogs. Still close enough to be an expensive purchase mind you.

Anyway got me thinking about counterfeits, and if there's been any discussion about how easy it would be to do now Mala and Loefah have been releasing remastered versions for a few years now.

I don't thinki mine are fwiw, proper etching, genuinely VG+ condition etc but I guess it's surely a lot easier these days for folk to make some money?

Anybody have an idea from the Bukez Finest clip?

Revamping the weekend feedback thread to allow more participation, since not all of us are producers.

So:

- What did you liked this week? - If you're a DJ or a producer, do you have any finished tune or work in progress to share?- And as a bonus, do you have suggestions for the community?
