According to Kyle, Burial is the hotness of 2007. “Untrue is the album of the year”, he says, “etc.”

Dub started with producers in Jamaica filling the B-sides of Reggae albums with heavy bass and hypnotically looped and layered splices from the recording session (cf. Bob Marley’s “One Drop” and “One Dub” off Songs of Freedom). It’s music to space out to.

Dubstep takes dub in the direction of spacing out — while dancing!
