Skream has announced that he will be taking a break from making dubstep.

The one third of Magnetic Man spoke in detail regarding his belief the genres movement is now over – “Dubstep is just a name now. It doesn’t have a meaning any more and the movement is over. It’s like the end of a relationship but it’s ended on a high. I’ve done dubstep since I was 14 but there’s no way I’m going to be dictated to. I stopped because I’m not inspired by it any more.”

On his contribution to the now trended genre – “I’ve done dubstep since I was 14 but there’s no way I’m going to be dictated to. I stopped because I’m not inspired by it any more.”

Skream has indicated that he is going to focus his musical creativity into more mellow house and disco. Looks like Daft Punk’s new album had a big influence on him!
