I see a lot of single tracks posted on here and understand the dub plate/unreleased side to dubstep culture.
Just wondering what people’s fave albums are. Mine are a bit obvious, burials untrue, mount kimbies first, beneaths album.
Which are yours?
Crooks & Lovers is getting a repress, thinking of copping.
I guess i’d say i’m feeling these when it comes to dubstepz
2562 - Aerial
Guido - Anidea
Skream!
Author’s self titled album

Biggups on the suggestions!
This is going into a playlist abd my next weeks listening is sorted
Insta-cop. I got the maybes ep. The only tune I don’t like on crooks is the one with king krule. I’ve never caved with his style tho
Yeah I agree. Think in dubstep there’s quite a few albums that lack that cohesive album feel vs a bunch of tracks thrown together. Distance deffo does that well with his albums. I think Degenerate could flow a bit better if the tracks were in a different order but it mostly does feel like a collection of dancefloor bangers. Still sick though.
don’t think that one was on the album?

L-Wiz - The Orange Tree?

3/4s of the way through this list. Loving degenerate, some distance stuff and hybrid minds.
Any further recommendations

Anymore suggestions
not sure if it completely qualifies as dubstep but ital tek’s cyclical and midnight colour are good
also not quite dubstep but sorta (and not an lp) but slugabed’s ultraheat treated ep from the same era on planet mu is one i often go back to
i mean its 140 and it has bass so its dubstarp right?

Peverelist - Jarvik Mindstate

Pinch - Underwater Dancehall
Pinch & Shackleton LP
Rygby - Halcyon Days (not got round to listening to it yet but I’ve heard nothing but praise from people who’ve heard it)

Most have been mentioned but for me 2562 - Ariel is my fav.
Dont’t think anyone has mentioned Headhunter - Nomad yet.

It’s up there with the original burial LP for top 5 dubstep albums of all time imo. Without giving it much thought I’d probably put it in my personal top 10 albums of all time as well
