    A list of STANDOUT 2-STEP would be a cool thing actually.
    Every time I read about 2-step it always sound good on paper
    But does not quite hold up in reality. I was in san Francisco and saw
    Dj shoban play a killer set of dark, dubby 2 step w/ rudebwoy snippets
    but I can never locate any of that shit
    How about a list of that biz from some in the know....
     
     
    TIA Malcolm

    Well, not to sound like a curmudgeon, but I can't really imagine playing (or
    hearing) 2-step without actually mixing it. If it's uptempo, you might want
    to stick with some of the BBE Off-Centre comps & other uptempo funk like
    that.
