Fresh and Rita Ora鈥檚 Hot Right Now.

When Dubstep invades dance floors in 2008, it鈥檚 like UK garage all over again. What happened to all the D&B lovers? Where did they go? But as those in the underground ponder the state of the nation, above the surface, a more commercial form of the music is growing stronger and stronger 鈥� thanks to festival headline sets from Pendulum and the very first D&B UK number one single: DJ Fresh and Rita Ora鈥檚 Hot Right Now.
