The DrumStepSTD Crew

Many do not know this but DrumStepSTD is actually a small crew of mad friends who go out to as many DnB and Dubstep parties as they can. Our aim is to get as fucked as we possibly can and enjoy the music we love. No one does it harder than us and last night was a true example.

The launch of Devastation last night at Voom Voom was awesome!! The DnB was sooo hard! I really enjoyed myself, the drinks were fairly priced, the sound was LOUD, the crowd was full of energy and there was even a small fight. How dope!

Lets try and sound like the average blogger. And next up was so-and-so and he absolutely blew me away with [insert long intelegent here] and [another intelegent word here] FUCKME I don't even know who was DJing at the time. BIG-UPS to:

Pziezzo Electric
Multicrisis
Counterstrike
Hyphen
Bruce Willis??
and the mc for the night MC Psyke

Everyone should be on the lookout for Bruce Willis?? I missed his set last night but I caught him by chance at fiction a couple of weeks ago. He has some kick-ass tunes!! He's going to be big and soon! Can anyone share a Facebook link?

Anyways I'm going to enjoy this hangover while it lasts. I will update this later with some links, the Devastaion marketing video and some other infomations.

A step into the future

The honest truth is that Dubstep and Drum n Bass has consumed my sole and I'm currently unable to live without it and consider myself as theee biggest fan in South Africa. Yes that’s a very bold statement indeed, but wa'eva. I have good faith in the genres and think they will be around for ever.

I took the opportunity on Friday at a party at Fiction called “Not U2” to have a quick chat with the great Funafuji. I guess I should have taken down some notes as I can't remember much about the “interview”. I asked her about her plans for the future, knowing that she’s graduating this year from med-school, my worries were confirmed. Obviously stuff like that comes first in life. She says (in that cool accent of hers) that she’s not going to be gigging that often anymore but will definitely be making appearances at festivals and focusing on production. Very understandable!

IN MY OPINION, no-one comes close to Funafuji's talent, unique style and pure awesomeness when it comes to the art of DJing Dubstep at the moment. I have realised that our top DnB and Dub DJs have so many years of experience in their respective genres, and that's why they are so good!

What’s going to happen when the top dogs retire? What’s going to happen to the history stored on their vinyl? There are a lot of new guys in the scene, its growing so fast, but is it growing properly? Is money becoming more important than the music?

I would love to see these guys pass on their knowledge to worthy students and keep their legacies alive. Paying to learn how to DJ sucks.

Anyways back to the present!

Here's a mix by Funafuji. I was listening to it while writing this.
