Forthcoming on HotFlush Recordings in September (home of Mount Kimbie) is this killer ambient dubstep track ‘Wet One’ from London’s Joy Orbison which serves as the B-Side to ‘Hyph Mngo’.
A bit of buzz around this guy is forming on the basis of those two tracks. With similar reaching stuff from Benga, Joker and more, 2009 is looking like the year dubstep really began to leave behind the “wub wub” to incorporate a little bit of everything else. Thanks to Adnans and other random Twitter people for the tip.

Nice. Just a small point: it’s “womp womp”, not “wub wub”! ;P
