Bay Area Dubstep volume 01 contains 14 unmixed, dj friendly tracks by San Francisco bay area dubstep and grime artists. From the deep ethnic stylings of Djunya, JuJu and D Program, to the twisted tech-dub of Eskmo and The Antiserum, from the grimey orchestrations of MBZ and the live hardware sounds of Albert Joseph, Atomikdog and Zapper, to the rootical stylings of Matty G and Roomate, each and every track is a chronicle to this contemporary musical artform called "Dubstep".

Heres a late breaking announcement! This amazing CD was recently featured by DJ " Mary Ann Hobbs" on Radio One on her now infamous "Essential Mix" electronic music show being broadcast weekly out of London. On the show she played track 6 aka Monstahs by Eskmo vs The Antiserum and gave a big shout out to all the artists and labels involved.

This hit CD was also featured on N-Types RinseFM Mix both broadcast in the UK and via podcast.

Ethnic stylings and heady atmospherics create the soundtrack to your mind. He has numerous vinyl releases, including recent tracks on JuJu's NarcoHz label. JuJu is a veteran of bass-oriented music. Following huge success in the drum and bass arena, he now directs his energy to creating dark, bouncy bassline dubstep. Owner of NarcoHz, another San Francisco dubstep label, he is the official granddaddy of S.F. Dubstep.

MBZ is an east bay grime producer that works almost exclusively with his own production / dj crew. Roommate has releases on Breakbeat Science, Steps In Time, and 6Six6 recordings. Two of his tracks are presented here, showing his range of production skills.

This is his first official dubstep track, included is a collaboration with The Antiserum. The Antiserum is a bay area wonderkid, with vinyl releases on BreaksFM records and Steps in Time. Matty G is a Santa Cruz native that creates dubstep inna-roots reggae-stylee. With many releases on Argon records, and many more planned, Matty G is the sound of future dub.
