Approved: Distance

The other day someone asked me how to dance to dubstep. Me. She’s seen me dance to other types of music, so should be well aware I’m not the person she should be asking. Still, I like to be helpful, so by way of response I sent her this video. The answer to her question, it seems, is that you should breakdance in slow motion and occasionally throw yourself onto the floor so hard you’re likely to do some serious damage.
Dubstep producer Distance, aka Greg Saunders, has released two albums through Planet Mu, the last being ‘Repercussions’ in 2008. Since then he’s been more of a singles man, releasing twelve-inches through his own Chestplate label, with the latest set to get an extra boost, having picked up the backing of Universal/Island. Featuring his particularly rhythmic style of production, it’s given a melodic edge by vocals from Alys Be, which always helps pick up a wider audience. It’s available now on iTunes, ahead of a full release on 2 May.
