It therefore works to educate those who aren’t really aware of why certain children and young adults may do things that aren‘t necessarily approved of. The drama is also sponsored by Childline, which aims to encourage young people to address certain issues they may be going through.Īlthough Dubplate Drama mainly speaks to young adults, it’s such an eye-opener on what’s actually going on today that even your mum would want to watch it. ‘The reason why Dubplate Drama works is because it’s based on reality’ says Wretch 32. From the start, the programme has always offered thought-provoking storylines and has featured various music artists such as Ms Dynamite. It’s popularity and the support it received was what led it to be on our TV screens today. It’s hard to believe that a television drama which is aired to thousands of people across the country, started-out as mainly only being accessible on mobile phones. There were also cameo’s from Donaoe, Wretch 32 and other well-established names from the UK music scene who gave a brief performance of ‘Let it out’, a song presented in association with Dubplate Drama and Childline. N-Dubz singer Tulisa Contostavalos who plays Laurissa, a drug-addicted victim of domestic violence, is also no stranger to her character and tells Flavour how she herself experienced being ’drawn-in and controlled’ by someone she loved when she was younger. Not to mention a few new faces such as Charles Mnene and Issac Ssebandeke who plays Devil and Millz, respectively. You can also expect to see appearances from Jay Sean to Tim Westwood in the third series. And up until series 3 got released, and you got voting, not even the Dubplate creators knew where all of this was going. In series 2 we saw Dionne, played by Shystie, facing tough decisions as to whether or not she should keep her unborn baby, Bones played by Adam Deacon gets brutally attacked and dies and Hoodman who plays Warren gets hit over the head with a vodka bottle by Bones’ mum. So, at the end of each episode, the viewers vote on what happens next. That’s because Dubplate Drama is ‘the world’s first interactive drama’. Strangely enough, it’s not up to the writer’s as to how the plot unfolds, but the viewers. Throughout the drama, the characters are constantly being faced with a range of dilemmas from drug issues, to unplanned pregnancies, domestic violence and assault. They all want to make it big in the music business, but there are always obstacles to overcome. The Mole: Lockdown Party – Sprinkle’S CrossfaderamaĨ.Dubplate Drama follows the life of a group of young adults determined to become successful in the music industry. Unknown Artist: Gift Of The Gnawa (Joe Claussell – Unofficial Edits and Overdubs)ħ. Burnt Friedman & Jaki Liebezeit: 255-6 – Shackleton RemixĤ. It’s a spiritual experience from that first Shackleton mix on – thanks to secretsundaze for helping hook this one up.Ģ. Look, we could talk about why Tama Sumo’s great all day – fact is, her FACT mix will do a better job at convincing you than any copy we can muster up on a Monday morning. In truth, Tama’s sound is somewhere between the two: she’s certainly more house than she is techno, but her sets pulse with the kind of bass more associated with the Berghain’s darker sound than Panorama’s. As the nineties rolled into the noughties, she became a regular at Panorama Bar and Berghain – the set of clubs that she remains aligned with. Tama’s been DJing since the early 1990s, holding down residencies at Drama and Café Moskau before graduating to the city’s Tresor club. There’s no gimmick to latch onto with Tama, no quirk that makes her an exception to whatever rules exist in this whole game, she’s simply one of the best house and techno DJs around. But listen to the way that some of Europe’s most renowned DJs – the likes of Ben UFO and Nick Hoppner, for instance – talk about Tama Sumo and it becomes clear that she’s one of the most respected around. With no real production career and only one mix CD, Ostgut Ton’s Panorama Bar 02 to her name, the Berlin-based DJ has released very little – there’s not even a surplus of recorded sets. Sometimes it’s the best DJs that are the hardest to write about.
