ONEMAN 09/01-11



its close and personal... seriously fresh... and a perfect finish to the weekend after datsik.


Oneman plays a lot of old tunes, an exception in a scene obsessed with the perpetual "moving forward never backwards" motion of dubplate culture. It's a kind of an unwritten rule but by and large to become a big DJ in dubstep you need either two things:An incredible arsenal of new dubplates, or a talent for production such that you have, well, an incredible arsenal of new dubplates. But recently a DJ has managed a steep climb up the scene's ranks without either.He is DJ Oneman.Amongst the immense respect bestowed onto him by his peers through the dubstep scene, DJ Oneman remains the only artist ever to appear on Mary Anne Hobb's BBC Radio 1 show without releasing a single record.He has almost singlehandly re-invented old school garage - taking theart of djing to a new level.
