Scene veterans take us to school.
Two of dubstep’s most venerable stalwarts, DJ Hatcha and Hyperdub boss Kode9 (pictured), went back-to-back on Kiss FM last week to take listeners through the history of the genre.
Touching on now-classic cuts from Skream, Mala, Loefah, Coki and the like, the 50-minute mix could be considered homework for the legions of dubstep fans around the world who’ve never been within a hundred miles of Croydon town centre.
Also note the introduction which describes Kode9 as “aka Steve Goodman, alias Burial”. We thought it was JK Rowling? [Hat tip to RBMA for the link]
