That Scatta link is broken but Foreign Beggars are dope and that Fonik track is pretty good. Dubstep is getting more intricate and that's cool. Those Benga tracks are both years old now. May as well be ages old at the rate music comes out and evolves. I guess we lay down our arms at this point and say to each their own b/c I'd rather listen to a Distance or Benga track but I gotta admit I do have a bone to pick with Skrillex which I mentioned earlier (ripping a DJ Shadow track straight and then throwing a drop on the end and not even mentioning DJ Shadow even though he played the track in just about its entirety...Oh it's called Amplifier btw)
and that's why I'm $hitting on him.
At least on the youtube video a top comment says that its DJ Shadow but otherwise you wouldn't know. And someone else asks how is it Skrillex and Diplo, where does Diplo come in when its "obviously DJ Shadow and Skrillex". But I have to wonder how grabbing a pre-existing track, not altering it at all, and then slapping a drop after its over (that doesn't really relate), and putting it out as your own bodes with you?
