Mary Anne Hobbs: Dubstep Warz @ 20

20 years ago Mary Anne Hobbs was joined by a group of young producers who were about to change the sound of electronic music forever. Listen back to that iconic show here.

20 years ago, Mary Anne Hobbs made a show called Dubstep Warz, originally broadcast on Radio 1, on January 10th 2006. She brought together a group of Artists from a very young South London scene, and in that moment, they changed the world of electronic music forever. Digital Mystikz, Skream, Kode 9 & The Spaceape, Vex’d, Hatcha & Crazy D, Loefah & Sgt. Pokes, and Distance. This the true sound of Dubstep, still so fresh and future-facing in 2026.
