Digital Mystikz are a dubstep production duo (consisting of Mala and Coki) from the South London suburb of Norwood.[1][2] Along with Loefah they operate the DMZ record label and host the influential[3] bimonthly nightclub DMZ, held at the Mass club complex in Brixton, London.[4] They are among the scene's most famous producers.[5] Their song "Anti War Dub" appeared in the 2006 film "Children of Men," although it wasn't included in the soundtrack.
DMZ
editDMZ 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]
