I know it’s hard to say seeing as it’s lockdown, but can anyone recommend good clubs that play 140, or any events which still play out dubstep? Wish I was into the scene when DMZ still had events going, those sets look mad.
Pre lockdown, the regular nights were things like shitty dubstep, Juan Forte, subtle FM nights, hvywght, system, hit & run, Subdub - definitely some more, but can’t remember off the top of my head
I’m totally in the same boat. I live in Toronto and although we’re in lockdown now, I don’t recall any Dubstep nights happening here before it all happened. If anyone knows of anything I’d love to check them out when it’s all over!
Basstrace in Vienna is nice if you happen to be around.
I think there were some guys making trips from pretty far away actually
Is there a dubstep scene or some sort in Swansea? I’ll be staying there for the rest of the year for my studies and would be happy to go to some parties
Bristol is not that far away so I’ll definitely go there as well hehe
You should do it
Sinai for the sound system and apparently no sound restrictions. Which I doubt.
Yeah gonna be hitting it up
Is it at Fire & Lightbox?
Nope, “HERE at Outernet” very close to Soho.
The venue is certainly a step up from the average dubstep event, I just hope the sound isn’t heavily restricted even if it is 4 floors underground.
They haven’t been at fire & lightbox for a while now anyway tbf
I am tempted but a bit skeptical. On the one hand Breakage’s basslines on an unrestricted sound system would be basically heaven. On the other, even if they intend to have it unrestricted I don’t think these venues know what they’re signing up for sometimes and lose their bottle once the ceiling starts rattling.
But on the other other hand you’ll get to join the exclusive group of dsf’ers who’ve bumped into me off my face
Tbh I’d be surprised if a London event in 2024 can genuinely get away with no sound restrictions, but I’m hoping they can at least get close to the promise of that
Where have all the nights gone?? What the fucking fuck?!?
Fairs, I didn’t spot skream and benga at FWD tonight, but looking on Resident Advisor between now and winter looks fucking shocking.
Hopefully some big nights pop up soon, any suggestions welcomed. Absolutely gutted the last System got cancelled, also wanted to make the last 1985 night but couldn’t, bet it was a big one.
Hope you guys are all good, rant over
Paging Dr. @CreamLord to the thread
Things have quietened down with Outlook and festival season on the way, but there’s still things on (I was at a dubstep night in Bristol last weekend, NLDC still hosting their monthly free week night which I was at on Wednesday this week and one of my mates did a take over at love inn Thursday just gone).
That being said, these are happening this month
Vivek apparently will be doing system in October, but that remains to be seen since he cancelled the last one. There’ll probably be more club stuff again as summer wraps up, but a lot of the festivals (day & camping) that focus on dance music will feature dubstep in some capacity but I’m too lazy to go listing all of those
