DUBSTEP INVASION – KID KENOBI & GLOVECATS

After milling about at the edges of dance for the past decade, 2010 marks the year when dubstep – the natural successor to breakbeat, drum and bass and two-step – finally broke through to the mainstream, at least in the UK, where the sound originated.

This two-CD compilation brings together some of the best of the genre, and as expected, there’s a lean towards UK names. Glovecats handle disc one, throwing Ellie Goulding and Professor Green into the mix, while Kid Kenobi offers up hits from Pendulum, Groove Armada and Deadmau5.
