Dubstep Does it exist in Switzerland

As the title applies still new to the music scene in Switzerland, living in Basel and haven't really heard anything except hip hop.
Recommendation on clubs in the Basel stadt area would be nice.
Knew a place back in Geneva think it was called usine, and java also tends some nights to dubstep.

Re: Dubstep Does it exist in Switzerland

theres dub step sometimes in Nordstern check out nordstern basel
also le garage has electro nights so maybe there
the hinterhof has some dub step nights and finally try hirschnek basel too.

all of these are in basel and there is certainly dub step going on as I have seen it many times !

Basel has a brilliant alternative music scene if you are willing to get involved. I miss it dearly and now I live in the UK which says a lot!

Re: Dubstep Does it exist in Switzerland

Funny, Dubstep is coming back! I used to go to a lot of dubstep parties 2005 or so.

Anyway, the following (dubstep) blog as an event calendar:

http://bassbetrieb.ch/category/event/

Hope you find what you are looking for.

BTW: The dubstep events at Dachstock ( in Bern) are (used to be) usually quite good. There are two events in February:

Re: Dubstep Does it exist in Switzerland

Urgh, the monstrosity that is dubstep. ;p

My husband is a dubstep fiend and I'm more of a techno one. I have a scary feeling when our son arrives in April, his diapered wee arse will be spinning around on some horrid dubstep record.

Save me.

Meeh techno, how boring. I'm with your husband on this. Children should listen to interesting beats and not just nznznznznznznznznznznznznznznznz

Re: Dubstep Does it exist in Switzerland

I think a club called the merhspur, at bellvue in zurich has the occasional night there, not exactly sure to be honest but definitely sure of some blurry memories of dubstep type stuff there.
it's not basel though. sorry

Check if he's on drugs. Not much else can make this music sound good, I'd imagine.

Re: Dubstep Does it exist in Switzerland

Ok, in all fairness, my husband did show me one track that's techno/dubstep-ish and it's really lush.

Baby's kicking up a storm to it too.

Re: Dubstep Does it exist in Switzerland

People always consider Dubstep shit cause they listened to hard dubstep, stuff like benga, cookie monsta and such. Tracks like this get lost in the mix WOBBBLE WOOBBLLEEEE WOB WOBBB
