Diary of a Dubstepper
Ever since early 2004 i have been fascinated with the deep sounds of this genre of music that can only be called dubstep; a musical genre too broad to define in anyway shape or form. In the last 4 years of listening predominantly to this music, I have been on an incredible journey traveling up and down the country supporting the players in this scene. For someone who never really traveled out of South London, dubstep has caused me to do round trips to the city of Leeds, Bristol, Cardiff, have found and lost love, money and my hearing in a number of countries all because of this underground sound, that's straight out of South London.
Four years into this adventure, I have finally decided to create a blog, so that i can share my many lucky experiences and encounters, thanks to this music with you.
The date is the 20th of April and i am just about to leave Amsterdam, my second home for dubstep.
On friday after a stint of average nights, and not wanting to hear more of the same, i decided not to go to FWD> and hear Joe nice or to fabric to hear Skream, i decided to get on a plane and travel to Holland, catch up with a few friends i hadn't seen in a while, potentially gain some more, and to catch Clu Kid, Chef, Cotti, LD, Gomes, and Osiris play in Utrecht at a night called dubstep a go go, at the established venue the Theatre Kikker.
After arriving to the venue somewhat just in time thanks to a really long afternoon/evening with a character called the Rear Admiral, it was nice to see the elite guard of Holland's Dubstep scene, and to hear the selection of two of Amsterdam's most prominent dubstep dj' s, it was a good night, sound was so so, and there was one or two jumpy dubs. But such is life. The buzz of the crowd, tunes like calm down, Road chef, and some creative dancing was enough to overlook the slight imperfections.
All in all it felt good to be back in Holland chilling with my friend. Nothing like meditating on bass weight.
Honestly.

I’ve been doing some serious research about the positioning of buttons in forms in general. And what I’ve come up with is to put the “Primary Action”-button left-aligned with the form. One of the reasons for doing this is that the eye automatically searches for a new form element to the left just under the previous elem
