This is not a genre of music I listen to on a day to day basis, and up until last Glasto I would have said that this was music that I wouldn't really be into. I accidently caught a few parts sets last year and was surprised by how much I was feeling it and I really did enjoyed it. I haven't looked in to this any further since last year and I am not at all familar with the names in dubstep.
I have spotted Rusko in the line up and I know he is dubste, but unsure is he is classed as decent. Other than Rusko, can anybody in the know suggest some other sets I may want to check out for 2010?
Thanks

i've been recommended him, but no chance ahead of snoop!
I hadn't checked to see who rusko clashed with, but if he does clash with snopp, then Rusko losses!! Snoop is a definate for me too.

Sounds v.interesting, I am sure it was the end of skream and benga's set in dance village last year that i caught and enjoyed.
That's gonna bloody clash with Stevie Wonder isn't it? No having much luck here am I haha!!
I wonder why there are so many good acts on Sunday and hardly any on Saturday - they should have mixed it up a bit

another vote here for Magnetic Man. they were the last act i saw in 2008 headlining the G Stage on the Sunday. small crowd, amazing vibe.

i have a perfect dubstep artist for you, nero. the only reason its perfect is as he's playing thursday (pussy parlure i believe) so no clashes! check check some of his sounds out on youtube. he also does dnb, but alot of his stuff is more dubstep

No worries. That stage seems pretty much Dubstep or Drum & Bass all of Saturday. Kode9 on the Sunday will be amazing too. He's the daddy of Dubstep

Yeah it's a nightmare clash for me as well. According to the clashfinder their set finishes after Stevies so it might be possible to catch the last 10 minutes or so depending on crowds

I think the small crowd there is the good thing about that stage and the vibe there is because of it's size, well IMO anyway - was gutted when i heard that it's gone for this year.another vote here for Magnetic Man. they were the last act i saw in 2008 headlining the G Stage on the Sunday. small crowd, amazing vibe.
I am really liking the sound of this Magnetic Man, but can't miss SW - god damn those Sunday clashes - AAARRRRGGGHHHHHH.

Might be possibly if you kins made you way to the edge of the crowd before Stevie ends and then make a run for it before the crown disperses.
Sunday is just one massive clash for me!!!

Magnetic Man (Skream, Benga + Artwork) will be worth a watch as they are probably the biggest names in dubstep playing together.
Not much this year but good thing about Glastonbury is I bet there will be loads of DJs playing unannounced slots!
