[edit] DMZ

DMZ has been described as dubstep's two "most influential regular clubnight[s]" (with its predecessor FWD>> the other one)[6] and "central to the scene."[7] Since starting in March 2005, the club's attendance has increased steadily.[8] DMZ's first anniversary, when a queue of 600 people[9] forced the club to move from its regular 400-capacity space[4] to Mass' main room, has been cited as a pivotal moment in dubstep's history.[6] BBC Radio 1 DJ Mary Anne Hobbs, whose support of dubstep has increased the music's popularity, discovered it at DMZ.[10] Other visitors have included Francois Kevorkian, Hank Shocklee, and King Tubby's son[11] The club is known for the power of its bass, always an important element in dubstep;[12] fliers carry the slogan "come meditate on bass weight."[5] In 2005 songs were created specifically to be played on the club's soundsystem.[3]
