Magnetic Man make Reading Festival debut

Hectic dubstep show fills Dance Tent

Daniel Fahey - 29 August 2010

Dubstep continued to crossover into the mainstream with a heavy debut from Magnetic Man at Reading Festival.

In a specially-constructed light-up frame, the Croydon supergroup made up of Benga, Skream and Artwork, had a capacity hoard under canvas and many more besides throbbing to some bass-heavy tunes.

Their recent top ten hit 'I Need Air' is the pinnacle of a 50-minute showing but from the other tracks played tonight (Sunday), their anticipated debut might just become a dance classic.
