#truedubstep

As part of Drowned In Sound's 'Subliminal Transmissions' week, 25 Tracks is an attempt to put together a mix that encompasses as many of dubstep’s myriad shifts as possible over the course of an hour. It’s never going to be comprehensive, and there are doubtless gaping holes where individual artists and sounds ought to be, but the aim is to provide a mostly chronological map of its development – all the way from the dark garage of El-B and Horsepower Productions to the many hybrid forms battling for attention today.
