Over time, the concept of this mix has evolved, from an upfront selection of deeper tunes to a crate-digging exercise (like <a href=\"http:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/2010\/02\/pearsall-presents-drop-the-hammer-7-new\/\">Drop The Hammer 7<\/a>), to the version you see before you, which is a mix of old and new that takes in flavours from hip-hop, reggae, house, techno, jungle, and 2-step garage along the way. It&#8217;s not really a pure &#8216;deep&#8217; mix like, say, Appleblim&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/Various-Dubstep-Allstars-Vol06\/release\/1348634\">Dubstep Allstars 6<\/a>, but more an exploration of the points where dubstep meets up with other forms of dance music. <\/p>\n<p>Unlike some of my other mixes, I don&#8217;t really have that much to say about this one; it kind of speaks for itself. Conceptually, it&#8217;s designed to be a summer mix, so a bit lighter and less aggressive than <a href=\"http:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/2010\/06\/pearsall-presents-wobble-city-2-new\/\">Wobble City 2<\/a> and less gloomy than <a href=\"http:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/2010\/02\/pearsall-presents-drop-the-hammer-7-new\/\">Drop The Hammer 7<\/a>; but since I live in Scotland, to be true to the Scottish summer experience means making sure that it&#8217;s not pure sunshine tunes all the way through. ?<\/p>\n<p>Since I don&#8217;t actually have that much to say about this mix, allow me to indulge myself in one of my other hobbies, which is photography. I&#8217;ve been interested in photography since High School, and, although I&#8217;m certainly no more than an enthusiastic amateur, it is something that I have always enjoyed doing. I use a little small Canon SD870, which works well enough for my purposes, since it offers good colours, a nice picture quality, and it fits easily into a pocket. Sure, it doesn&#8217;t have the same kind of focus that you get with a massive Nikon SLR, but I&#8217;ve always been a firm believer that how you frame an image is more important to the aesthetic quality of a photograph image than having a camera with the highest technical specifications.<\/p>\n<p>Having now figured out how to put a gallery in a post (see <a href=\"http:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/2010\/07\/pearsall-presents-rampage-audio-2\/\">Rampage Audio 2<\/a> for the first example), I thought that it might be fitting to go back through my last several years&#8217; worth of photos to find some of my favourite sunshine shots (well, and one shot from dusk). Most of these were taken on my travels, but there are a few from London and Edinburgh, as well. I hope you enjoy them!<\/p>\n<p>[nggallery id=3]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>22 tracks of dubstep for deep heads, featuring head-nodding beats from the likes of Skream, Digital Mystikz, Martyn, Silkie, Matty G, and many more!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[32],"class_list":["post-877","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-mixes","tag-dubstep"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/877","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=877"}],"version-history":[{"count":23,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/877\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6125,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/877\/revisions\/6125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=877"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=877"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=877"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
