Bit of a loaded question as Burial's not really dubstep, but anyways.

Lets talk about DJing and producing. But also, which tunes and mixes you enjoyed this week.

Some questions to get the conversation going:

- 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?

Note: WIPs should be posted on these weekly threads only.

Does anyone have this mp3 at all? It was released during Covid by nitelife magazine when you purchased their tote bag to support them. Recently had all my files wiped from my PC and lost this MP3. It was also the hidden track on MEDI109

Hey all, next year Im going to start work on more long form mixes for Youtube. This will be focused to begin with on Pre & Classic Dubstep 2000 - 2010. I wanted to ask if there was any specific kind of things people would like to see/hear? Thanks!

I recently became allowed headphones at work (!!) and am making my NY resolution to go through the dubstep (station?/radio?/mix? idk what to call them..) archives. Going through old posts in the sub, this is the list so far - am I missing any? and ps how do you find out about new ones? where do you get dubstep news?? I'm not in the UK unfort, thanks team. love yous!

It's bulky, it's expensive, it's fragile, you can't have many tracks on it, high maintenance, and overall just very inconvenient.

It IS cool, don't get me wrong, and sounds great! There's also the nostalgia factor.

But to the pros don't outweigh the cons, and with Duploc dropping vinyl, I can't say I blame them for choosing to do so with how few people are buying them.

Am I the only one who thinks vinyl is overrated?

Just curious about the community's thoughts on "radio" stations (quotes because I think some are only available online, not truly radio broadcast). Do people actually tune into these shows in decent numbers, or are they just sort of invisible dumping grounds where people throw mixes in the hope of catching attention? I feel like maybe people listen live for well-known DJs like Slimzee, J:Kenzo, BunZer0, etc but what about everyone else? Are "radio" shows even relevant in today's climate? Do you listen to any shows regularly?

I was on Subtle for close to a year and noticed no increase in listenership as a result -- granted, I had a weak timeslot (12AM-2AM every third Thursday) and was never officially added to the roster. That's partly what sparked the question, but I've heard similar stories from other newer/smaller DJs and was just curious. Is this something that's more popular in the UK perhaps?

edit: As some have already mentioned, I typically don't listen live either but will stream things when it's convenient for me. Which just compounds the question -- how important is it to be live regularly?

It's kinda hard to explain but in JD Reid - Roshi and Midnight Request line there are parts where the bass gets higher and its just perfect, what are some more tracks with this?
