This -- a dread screwed dubstep version of Prince's classic single Sign '☮' The Times -- may very-well be the greatest cover-version ever:Kode9 feat. The Spaceape - Sine of the Dub (3.63 MB mp3: right-click and Save As to download; play using the handy little embedded player below)In 2006, after a series of highly-regarded 12" singles, Kode9 and The Spaceape released Memories of the Future -- which is possibly my album of the decade.
Certainly, if you like (the hugely-hyped) Burial and you haven't heard this, you owe it to yourself to check it out. I don't particularly like Burial, and personally I think that Kode9 in general -- and Memories of the Future in particular -- are more deserving of all the acclaim instead.
More dubstep tuneage at Undomondo...
