Since the early days of floridadubstep.com (Sept 26, 2007), dubstep events, dj’s, blogs, forums, internet radio, and labels have been growing in numbers; in much the same way senior citizens and Cubans have. All over this great great state dubstep outfits have been sprouting up like czars in Obamas’ cabinet. This post is dedicated to those brave people who have what it takes (time, energy, patients, heartache, headache, blood) to get into this business and work hard to make sure that dj’s have a constant flow of fresh dubs.
Here’s a short list of dubstep labels based out of the sunshine state:

Here’s another event sponsored by a major corporation in an effort to extent their brand, in this case, the Scion line of cars to a target market, us. The event is potentially free, if you RSVP (give them juicy information about yourself) and get there before the venue reaches maximum capacity. They are bringing in RUSKO who I think has done some great things for the music we love and 12 Planet who runs the SMOG outfit in LA, but is this concept taking it too far? Is this the beginning of the end for dubstep? Will corporations and their marketing plans eventually take this music that, in my opinion, has become so popular due to its lack of cookie cutter arrangements (cough: DnB) and its inability to be penned down and cheapen it for their own marketing campaigns. Dubstep has always been a breath of fresh air. What comes after this corporate exploitation? Will we see ridiculous pop stars like Ke$ha, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga having dubstep tunes on their next mind numbing albums? I certainly hope not. Well, until that dreaded day comes, here’s some “potentially” free dubstep action in Tampa:

With a new web presence soon to come, the dubstep collective known as Goya King, from Florida’s Space Coast, is bringing forth some bass fire. They’ve hooked us up with a new mixtape comprised of some originals, some classics, and some personal favorites to start 2010 off with a reflection of what went down in 09.
These are the guys that were responsible for the Dubfari dubstep monthly that rocked downtown Melbourne, Fl.
