I was reading Kid Kameleon's blog, and he reminded me that I totally forgot about Spectre. That would be the hip-hop producer Spectre, not the breaks producer Spectr.
This stuff gets overly confusing.

<i>That would be the hip-hop producer Spectre</i>
When I heard my first set of dubstep, it instantly reminded me of a lot of the dubby instrumental hip-hop on the Wordsound label. Spectre recorded some stuff for Wordsound.

what are you digging at anyway, vahid? the roots of dubstep aren't 2step garage and techstep?

nah, whatever martin clark says i don't think disciples, iration steppers, whatever sound that much like dubstep
― moonship journey to baja, Sunday, 16 December 2007 21:47 (1 year ago) Permalink
i'm not digging for "the roots".
you might call the sonics or link wray proto-punk, though i very much doubt many people making punk rock in the 70s had actually heard the sonics or link wray. the idea is just that the sonics happen to sound like something that came along much later in an unconnected way.
i'm just digging around for non-obvious stuff that happens to sound, basically through chance or accident, like current dubstep.

Like oh 50% of all dub and roots reggae from the mid-70s onward based around steppers riddims.
And I hear plenty of Jah Shaka et all esp. in the Digital Mystikz school of dubstep.

But at 140 odd BPM ?
Sure Ancient Memories and some of the other early Digital Mystikz tracks sound a lot like Jah Shaka, but I've never heard anything by Shaka that sounds like Da Wrath by Mala.
Specifically the Souljahz Mix on DM 003.
― Siah Alan, Sunday, 16 December 2007 23:44 (1 year ago) Permalink
yeah i gotta agree here. clearly there's a particular wing of the dubstep crew that's consciously trying hard to sound like jah shaka (soul jazz "box of dub" crew i'm looking at you) but that's ignoring a whole lot of producers (vex'd, scuba, distance, mark one, hatcha, d1, all the grime refugees like skepta and benga, etc) that aren't.

Um well I did specifically say that I was speaking about those worshipping at the altar of DMZ (most of whom's early stuff is NOT at 140bpm or anything close to it.)
Anyway one particular techstep tune that sounds like minus the breaks (and um some momentum) could be Digital Mystikz is DJ Trace's "Final Chapta". Actually if you playing it at 33rpm it'd be dead ringer for their first couple of releases.

Quite a few slow tracks on techstep albums are pretty much dubstep avant la lettre, but I will need to relisten to them to provide track names aside from Dom & Roland's "Industry" (awesome track BTW).
The Aloof sometimes sounded a bit dubsteppy when they toned down on the orchestral workouts and turned up the rigorous rhythms. But then The Aloof kind of remind me of everything (I thought of the Studio album the last time I listened to Sinking).

Thats funny considering how many Dubstep producers on the forum seem to love post-rock, although I'm not sure if many of them like Bark Psychosis.

Parts of Mouse on Mars's Iaora Tahiti (the midtempo, non-housey parts) sound like dubstep only with the dirge replaced by sparkly chromatic intensity.
Speedy J's Public Energy No. 1 represents for the dirgestep.

Afro-Central on the Afro Left single also has a dubstep vibe. Would fit perfectly in a Kode9/Martyn dj set.

Stewart Walker - Dead Factory Metaphor fits the vibe here. Don't think it would count as proto-dubstep but i'd have to check the dates.
