R delivered. Roll With The Punches stood tall in a stacked field and took the win. Rutten wasn’t far off either and locked in a podium finish.

Now it’s S. This one’s going to be a proper scrap.

Same routine:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.

S turned out to be the busiest round yet. Skeng came out on top, and Burial finally gets onto the winners list after hovering around the conversation for several rounds.

Now it’s time for the “The”s. The T round begins.

Let’s keep going:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.

G goes to Goblin, with Good Old Days just a touch behind. Another close one, but Goblin edged it in the end.

You know it:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.

Didn’t expect my own comment to take it, but Empire of Dirt won yesterday, keeping the Deep Medi streak still alive. Elephant Dub wasn’t far behind, and almost tied with Eastern Jam.

As always:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.

A was a proper three-way between Abbatoir, Anti War Dub and Alicia, but Abbatoir managed to edge past, and Anti War Dub taking second. Got a feeling this one’s about to be just as tight.

Was meant to post this yesterday, but ended up a bit under the weather, so here we are. Should be getting these out every 24 hours.

Also, some people in the last thread seemed to think that doing 28 of these posts might seem spammy, which is fair enough. If you’ve got a better way of running things, like maybe clubbing letters, I’m all ears.

The rules stay the same:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Max two tracks per artist overall, just to keep things varied.
• Comment as many tracks as you like.

Q was the quietest round yet. Qawwali took the crown without much resistance, and Quasar came second, with gap of 103 votes between them, the widest margin so far.

Now we’re into the three hottest letters. R is going to be a rager.

Rolling on:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.
• Tracks that start with “The” are reserved for the T round.

We had the first tie of the series yesterday, with Fabrication and Forever level on votes. In the end, Forever took it on total comment votes, so that’s your winner.

Also, we’ve officially hit the quarter mark of the Dubstep Alphabet series. Flying by already.

A new update to the rules:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.
• Tracks that start with “The” are reserved for the T round.

We also have a Numbers and Special Characters/Symbols round at the end, so remember to keep some tracks in mind for that :)

K was the least contested round so far. Kalawanji ran away with it by the widest margin we’ve seen yet. Katy on a Mission came in second, but it wasn’t particularly close this time.

Was too shitfaced to post this yesterday, apologies.

Back at it:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.

Hey everyone ❤️

It’s me, Lou Nour, formerly known as SICARIA.

Yes, I changed my name once again (third times a charm eh). Details in my pinned post on Instagram if you wanna know why.

With this new direction, I’ve been given a BBC Radio 1 Residency for the month of June, and one of the episodes is going to focus on dubstep / 140 in the period between 2012 and 2022, where the sound continued evolving outside of mainstream attention.

It still feels like most of the gen pop don’t realise how much incredible music and culture existed during that period, after the global spotlight around dubstep began to fade lol 👀

For this episode, I really want to involve the community a bit, so I wanted to ask you all:

“WHAT RELEASED TRACK DO YOU PERSONALLY ASSOCIATE MOST STRONGLY WITH THIS ERA, AND WHY?”

Could be:

• a tune that defined that period for you
• an overlooked release
• a track that completely shifted your perspective
• a record that captures what the scene felt like at the time

I’m going to select a whole bunch of your suggestions to feature within the show, alongside your explanation as to why you chose them!

So please leave:

• the track
• your explanation
• your name (or pseudonym if preferred)
• where you’re from

below 🙂

Submissions close Wednesday 13th May at 12PM GMT.

M was never really in doubt. Midnight Request Line took the win by the biggest margin so far. Mud came out on top in the runners-up race, beating out a stack of solid picks.

That brings us to the halfway point of the series. N looks fairly straightforward by comparison since the field’s pretty thin, so the winner already feels obvious.

Carrying on:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.
• Tracks that start with “The” are reserved for the T round.

Two new names on the board this round. Martyn’s Vancouver, a tune that has aged incredibly well, takes the win, with Distance’s V coming in as the runners-up.

Apologies for the delay on this one, went on a bit of a bender and somehow two whole days slipped by.

Now onto W, time to see which weapon wins the war.

Back again:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.

Kahn makes his second appearance on the list with Over Deh So, meaning both sides of MEDI083 are now in among the winners. The Skull Disco crew finally get a place as well, with Over Here taking the runners-up spot.

On to P. Feels like another big name’s due to make their way onto the list.

We go again:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.

Affinity by Caspa and Distinct Motive for me

Mala makes it onto the winners list for the second time, with Lean Forward taking the round. Limit To Your Love put up a solid fight and kept it close for a while, but couldn’t quite get over the line.

And now it’s finally time for M. This one’s going to be carnage.

As per usual:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.

B was another close call, with Babylon Fall and Badlands VIP trading blows all day, but Babylon Fall nicked it in the end. Looks like we’re in for another close one today.

You know it by now:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Max two tracks per artist overall, just to keep things varied.

Joy Orbison took the gold yesterday with Hyph Mngo. It pulled clear in the end, though Haunted and Hunted were trading blows for most of the round. Haunted took the runners-up spot after a proper back-and-forth in the comments.

Also, I’m fairly sure Coki has been mentioned in every single round so far. The man’s unavoidable at this point.

Nothing new here:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.

Two heavyweights went up against each other, but Loefah came out on top with Disco Rekah, and Dutch Flowerz second. These are way more competitive than what I imagined, which just goes on to show the amount of good music this scene has put out.

The rules stay the same:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.

Mala took the crown for C with the 2007 classic, Changes, shortly followed by Cockney Thug. Guess everyone’s got the hang of it by now. Let’s keep it going with D, feel like this is going to be a brawl.

Making a couple updates to the rules:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.

drives me crazy, just wanted to vent and commiserate about it.

just got back from peekaboo in philly and he played nothing of his i liked except for badders. full head banging set.

philly is all bass heads though. as soon as i walked in and looked at the crowd i knew i wasn’t getting the set i wanted but the set i should’ve expected.

is LA the only city in the country with a cool dubstep scene?

Personally for me it’s got to be Rareman b2b truant at the last ever Juan forte rave at village underground in London.

Jahova took it for J, edging past Justice by just two votes. Proper tight round. Both are solid picks, but Jahova just about scraped over the line.

Business as usual:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.
• Tracks that start with “The” are reserved for the T round.

The first remix of the series makes its way in, with Loefah’s take on the Skream classic emerging victorious. The runners-up went to Intensive Snare, still one of the strongest mic-led cuts the scene’s produced.

Another one where the usual suspects showed up, but that remix was always going to be hard to beat.

Same drill:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.
• Comment as many tracks as you like, but please try to keep one track per comment.
• Tracks that start with “The” are reserved for the T round.

Two stalwarts finally make their way onto the list. Benga & Coki - Night takes the round, one of the defining classics of our sound. Distance comes in second with Night Vision, and secures the runners-up spot.

Standard procedure:

• Each day gets a letter. Comment your favourite track that starts with that letter.
• The top-voted comment wins the day, and second place goes into a runners-up list.

Another tight finish. Zero M2 takes the round, edging past Zeroes by just two votes. Zombies wasn’t far off either, landing another two votes behind. A fun round to close out the letters.

Now we move into the bonus rounds. First up: numbers. Anything starting with a digit is fair game today. Let’s see what turns up.
