African Dope Records

"African Dope Records is an independent record label based in Cape Town, South Africa. It is the brainchild of the world renowned beats ‘n breaks DJ/producer duo Krushed & Sorted, who began and ran the record label from its original humble HQ in the centre of Cape Town back in 2000. Since April 2000, Dope has been releasing the phreshest beats and breaks by artists from the Mother City."

These guys are doing such a good job with DnB and Dubstep in Cape Town, I think I may have heard my first Dubstep track at an African Dope party.

There are a couple of free tracks on their site:

Fiction - The home of Dubstep and Drum and Bass in CPT

Fiction - The home of Dubstep and Drum and Bass (DnB) in Cape Town.

Fiction is a comfy club where people from all over the city come for their dose of Dubstep, DnB, Indie Electro and other genres of music that you wouldn’t find at your average club. Overlooking Long Street from the second story of a building on the corner of Long and (find out the name of the other road) is definitely one of the best parts of this club. The walls are filled with interesting pictures of characters from classic movies that also surround dance floor that is considerably small but still has a big-ass sub in the corner. The crowd all bouncing to their own interpretation of the beats makes the floor wobble hectically and it feels like the building is going to collapse. It’s really unexplainable and you have to experience it to understand.

If you are looking for a Dubstep party, the event "StepUp" at fiction is where it’s at. Fiction hosts this party once a month and you get to see South African's top Dubstep Djs in action such as Funafuji and Fletcher.

Your DnB needs can be fulfilled every Thursday night at "It Came from the Jungle". I was very lucky to have seen international Djs/producers Camo & Crooked perform at one of these events. Niskerone and Hyphen are the regular DnB "Selectors".
