» How To Talk Dubstep?

This month’s issue of Esquire magazine is proof of just how far the reach of dubstep is now. The sound that only a couple of years ago was still considered to be largely underground has infiltrated adverts, TV shows, commercial radio and mainstream chart bangers and now…dubstep has made it into the conservative mens style guide with a 40-something readership that is Esquire Magazine. This month’s Esquire Manual features ‘How To Talk Dubstep’, a five-step guide to bass-weight from Soul Jazz’s Nicole McKenzie. Don’t know what to make of this…it’s the age old debate of whether the sounds we love should stay under the radar or embrace growth and inevitably cross-over into the mainstream. In this case there’s definitely a transition. Either way, it’s still sick, we still love it, we’ll still push it. Dubstep’s here to stay!

» FADEAWAY Magazine – Issue 3 – Jan 2010

IN ISSUE THREE
Cover Main Feature is Derrick Rose then also NBA All Stars, Baller Diaries, Essex Pirates, JLS, Music Reviews,Games, Competitions,
Fashion & much more. Here is a little taster of whats in the new issue.

DERRICK ROSE’S Rookie of The Year winning season made him “The man”. But with success come expectations…and, so far this season, neither he nor the Bulls are living up to them.

Six Months AGO, Brandon Jennings’ decision to ditch college for Europe looked like huge mistake to most. he’s quickly proved them wrong…

Will Clapton examines twenty-four players who have lived up to – and exceeded – expectations so far this season.

Life in the Low-rent world of the BBL ain’t a Bed of roses. this isn’t the high-rolling universe of the NBA. it’s a proving ground, a test of mind and body that can make or break dreams of moving onto a bigger and better payday elsewhere. dealing with bus trips, prehistoric gyms and three-figure crowds throws up constant challenges. some sink, others flourish. a few opt to stick around. if first impressions count, what’s going through the minds of this year’s BBL rookies? four of the best speak exclusively to FadeAway’s Mark Woods.

A passion for streetball has taken Kevin Couliau to some of the world’s most famous blacktops – first as a ball player, now as a
photographer trying to share his vision of basketball. he spent this past summer in NYC…

With the Winter Weather too cold to play ball outside, video games can be a great way to take care of your Basketball cravings. but at around £50 a pop, which game do you spend your left-over Christmas money on, NBA Live 2010 or NBA 2k10?

As Always, FadeAway brings you the latest sneaker releases….But which should be hung from the rafters, and which should be strung up? Judge for yourself….
