Dubstep original will never turn his back on the sound that made him
As you’ve doubtless heard, dubstep is dead in the water. Cursed with a lethal mix of commercial success, mass popularity, a huge internet presence, countless sold out raves, the scene is, as any fool can tell, totally knackered.

For many DJs, a residency at one of the major clubs in Ibiza would be a sign that they'd made it and entered the major league. To maintain that residency for well over a decade would be their dream come true: job done. But for Steve Lawler, while he’s loved dining out at dance music’s top table for such a long stretch, last year saw him leave his long-running residency at Space.
