Nero's Dubstep Symphony

Tonight saw Mistajam and Zane Lowe present a piece of history in the form of Nero's Dubstep Symphony. As the name implies, it saw Dubstep duo Nero team up with the BBC's Philharmonic Orchestra to perform their well-known hits in a completely unique classical style. A couple of hundred lucky people got the chance to watch the performance live at the new Salford based BBC studios, but thankfully it was broadcast for the rest of us on Radio 1/1Xtra, and through the Radio 1 webcam. Jam & Zane are forever pushing the boundaries, and this was no exception - who ever thought you would see a Dubstep duo performing with a full Orchestra? I know I didn't, and I truly believe that this is one of the greatest pieces that the BBC has ever broadcast, which is why I have taken the time to provide you all with the MP3. I was going to split them up, but for me it's imperative that you listen to it from start to finish. Enjoy and download, HERE. New levels, and a new genre - Orchestep.
