I honestly can't remember the last time i got excited about a dubstep track that wasn't made by Skream or Benga. I heard an interview with Loefah a couple of months back in which he basically denounced the scene claiming it no longer had the principles it did back when it started in 2004. He felt it had became too young and ravey and that's why he started his label swamp81, as a way to showcase a deeper, darker and more thoughtful dubstep sound. A sound taking influences more from Deep House, Techno and UK Funky than the current sound of Dubstep.
It's that sound that i think is the future of dubstep and bass music. It's got to the stage now that whenever i hear a big 'dirty drop' i cringe inside a little bit. Let's move on and leave that sound to 18 year olds who don't know any better. That was my main inspiration for this mix. And the fact i wanted to make something nice and dark to provide a soundtrack to the cold and wet Autumn nights ahead.
