I just came across this artist a day ago and he's truly amazing.
Never seen anyone like him before.

"Dub FX (real name Benjamin Stanford) is a worldwide street performer and studio recording artist from St Kilda, Melbourne, Australia. His trademark is the use of loop and effect pedals combined with his voice. He creates intricate hip hop and reggae rhythms. Some of his music is also referred to as dubstep."

Dub Fx claims to be completely independent using only: live performance, word of mouth, internet social networking and a number of easily accessible free samples.

His lyrics both address generalized world events and contemporary angst while suggesting individual based revolution through self determination and engagement.


A sample to get you guys going.
I hope this doesn't go under "just posting a youtube video" but as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, thus a video should be worth more.

I've had this guy in my playlist for awhile. He's huge on the interwebz. I'm surprised you haven't heard this before. I'm actually pretty sure it was posted before but I'm too lazy to go find it.

[NoOxygen]

Yeah, everyone on my msn contact listen knows him aswell. Strange.

old news is old, I've started listening to his music months and months ago, he recently got famous.

Holy crap man.
Thats freaking genius.

Nice share man :)

[NoOxygen]

I haven't really paid attention to this kind of music so it was a great find for me.
Could have shared earlier Keith. :<

Yeah Dub FX is awesome. There's a lot of that up hare in Minneapolis, although instead of using the foot gear he has they use a laptop with Ableton Live. Awesome stuff though.
