Everything reminds me of dubstep

THE DUBSTEP - TECH HOUSE CONNECTION (FT. APPLEBLIM)

I started obsessing about dubstep crossed with techno, or “techy” dubstep, then I started looking back and realized that it was a crossover that had been researched since the beginning of 140 in the early 2000s (labels like Tectonic, SPE:C, Osiris, Timedance, Woozy, Hotflush all started with the intention of bridging a gap). 

Tech house was always presented to me as a cheesy commercial scene that wouldn't interest me. Guys in white shirts doing coke and wafting seemed like something I'd want to stay away from, but it was also kind of fascinating, in a weird way, I began to feel drawn to this no-go zone I knew nothing about. 

Much later, I realized I had the wrong end of the stick: just as dubstep gained mainstream recognition through the “sterilization” of its signature sound (most people know from Skrillex), the same thing happened to tech house (on this subject, see RA's “What Happened To Tech House?” video). These two highly specialized, high-quality genres have been victims of their own success. You have to peel back the layers to get back to the genre's roots, which are generously organic and soulful. 

Discovering older, more underground tech house or minimal tracks has been like a breath of fresh air. It's the most natural and authentic feeling, the one of swaying to 120 bpm and letting yourself be carried away by the rhythm with a naughty smile on your face.  
A lot of 'tech house' (or 'minimal') tracks have a very sparse quality, few elements and a lot of emptiness. It's also very bass-driven. Stripped-down and organic, deep, bass-driven, powerful, subtle... it's all starting to sound like another genre I really like: deep dubstep!

Dubstep devotees seem to have looked to other genres for inspiration when 140 hit a dead end in the 2010s and began to gain recognition in the US. I met Appleblim, an absolutely key figure in this crossover, and he was telling me how artists like Martyn, 2562, Shackleton... had this more “feminine” sound, not the “bro-step” vibe, it was already moving away from it, bringing in new influences because they were fed up with the caricature it was becoming. The dubstep don Pinch literally calls a track “Croydon House”(2010)because it has the sonic palette of dubstep but the BPM of house. I later discovered that this type of dubstep had already been named: Post-Dubstep!  

Tech house can be fun/quirky, but also very headzie, its repetitive nature can lead to a trance-like state. Similarly, dubstep, which has its own wild personality, can easily tip over into aggressive/clownish “WAB WAB”, but when it's deeper, it's very immersive, even if its “wob wobs” remain rascally. 

Going back to RA's video on “What Happened To Tech House?” they say his spiritual home is Croydon. And we know that's where dubstep comes from! The magnets are getting closer. 

Appleblim kept coming back to a club night held at Berghain that seemed to be a playground for exploration in the late 2000s: sub:stance (the first was in 2008).
The night's founder, Scuba, invited the likes of DMZ for their Berghain debut, while Panorama Bar featured minimal labels like Perlon. Appleblim told me that Berlin technophiles came to sub:stance to listen to this new syncopated sound (dubstep) and take inspiration from it for their music. 

Everyone was inspired by everyone else, and that's the heart of this crossover. This results in things like DJ Pete's RA podcast, full of that crossover sound. Appleblim told me that they all hung out together and exchanged records, that Bristol music was selling very well in Berlin. In addition, Shackleton is another important name, as you could say he comes from dubstep, having launched his label Skull Disco, which also releases Appleblim music. Yet he was later remixed by Ricardo Villalobos, probably one of the biggest names in tech house, who also mixed dubstep records, reducing their BPM to incorporate them into his sets!

Argo b2b Beatrice M. on Radio80000 - 24.09.2022

Living Room n°51 ~ @beatricemasters

q. pls introduce yourself
a. I’m Beatrice, a Franco-english DJ, producer and musician based in Paris, France. I’m born on the 16th of April 2000 in Paris and I grew up in the country side in Burgundy. I studied sound art for 5 years in Strasbourg and now I do music as my profession. 

q. is there a story behind the mix? how did it come together?
a. Dubstep and ambient being the main genres that I DJ, I thought I might make a mix that combines the two, like Gabber Eleganza’s Hardcore Soul Mixtape, where they take intros/buildups of hardcore track, but never leave the drop. So I took dubstep tracks with melancolic intros, bridges and outros, and made this ambient mix on Ableton. 

q. in your opinion, what would be the ideal circumstances to enjoy your mix?
a. That’s a hard question. I’d say in a train on your way to a party in a city. The dubstep samples will excite you for the party to come, but the ambient will make it nice to watch the landscape go by out the window with the sunset.

q. describe a favourite object in your living room...
a. I don’t really have a living room at the moment because I’m moving between studio or shared flats sublets for short periods, but I like to bring with me my perfume which has been Eden by Cacharel for the past 8 years and has a beautiful packaging that looks nice in a living space.

q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?
a. I’m working on trying to produce music  which is a hybrid of techno and dubstep, and working on a label of my own that I will launch by the end of the year.

@sepehr-a @specrecords
First time I came across SPE:C was through Sepehr’s elegant chugger « Roll the Dice », I’ve now had the opportunity to do my own take on it, very much inspired by 2010s techy dubstep from the likes of Asusu, Fureshu, A Made Up Sound, etc …channeling milimalism and nostalgia. 
Also on the remix pack is Jasmin’s halftime groover remix of my track « Calibre » part of the Take a Sip EP I did on SPE:C last year
