So...

Not lot of noise happening here, huh.

But although Brüt Force is experiencing a sort of dormant period, Chicago in general is enjoying the rise in popluarity of DUBSTEP. Joe Nice visited our city again recently, JuJu shortly before that. Both played incredible sets. Some people (myself included) were happy to hear proper dubstep on a proper system. Others barely knew what hit them. Listen to Joe's set from Lava here, with thanks to dubstep.fm for hosting.

In related news, BassGoesBoom will be at it again this Friday, presenting a local showcase featuring Cringer, Lord Dubious, Phaded, and Timid. And rumor has it we'll see some UK talent in October or November.

Let's see, what else. I guess I'll make the rest of this post a clearing house for what I've been up to since recording "School". First there's my dubstep mix:
