Dubstep (and similar genres) Thread!

[Scotty1700]

So I'm here listening to some awesome dubstep-like songs and it sorta encouraged me to post some favs so what better thread than one completely about the genre(s) of music that's hands down awesome! Post what you think is the best and who knows, ya might find a song or two ya like!

First one's bigbeat, not necessarily dub sooo bear with me :<

Remix of a 'classic', imo much better than original.

Some dubstep is okay, but largely it all sounds the same to me. It's still good stuff though.

 

[Vaelarsa]

I just hate it when it breaks an otherwise decent sound going on, into whatever the fuck you would call the shit starting at 0:43 in the Skrillex song.
It was good, until then, but then it was completely ruined.
South Park was right in parodying it as sounding like someone literally taking a shit in your ear, because that's what those parts sound like.

 

[veeno]

I indeed love dubstep.

Meh, to each their own. I find it sounds really cool, dubstep sorta revolves around the electric sound, loads a bass, and the drop of course so if you don't like that part of the song then it makes sense you don't like dubstep

I like simple dubstep.
It seems that most of what I see today is allot of "screech scratch weelm walm chak chak" (I know, amazing description.) And I really like the more simple and calm sounding stuff. Hence why I love Mt Eden.

And recently found this gem.

But yeah, check out stuff from Mt Eden. Really chill and nice.

Love liquid dub.

Only problem is the fan-base is a bunch of 13-year-olds talking about boners and cum.

Almost all the dubstep I've heard sounds like two transformers fucking. It's an awful genre of "music."

It takes talent to produce any type of music. While it isn't entirely my cup of tea, it is a respectable genre.
Tell you what. Go buy some Midi Controllers, open up Ableton Live or Cubase and make some Dubstep. Then and only then can you tell me it sucks.

I understand not painting an entire genre in a bad light, but your argument doesn't really make sense. Is there a chance that if they made it they would like it? Or something? I don't understand.

It's like telling someone who doesn't like eating shrimp that they can't not like it until they've made shrimp at home themselves. Well uh, they're still probably not going to like it, and they've wasted their time and resources.

If you're trying to make someone appreciate the effort it takes, it's still a weak argument since even if they took the time they'd half-ass it and deem it not worth the trouble.

The baseline talent put into making dubstep isn't a huge feat >_>

Though you're implying that someone must become like Justin Bieber to say he sucks, and that notion is silly. :v

Well isn't that just a giant argumentative fallacy. Tell me, do you hold video game critics, movie critics, or anyone else that reviews products to the same standard?

 

[Wreth]

I mainly dislike dubstep, because it's killing drum and bass

You're absolutely right, I don't.

For clarification purposes, you questioned whether or not Dubstep should be considered music at all, and my point was that it takes just as much talent to produce that as it does to make any other genre of music.

Now, I'd rather not turn this thread into something like this, so I'll stop the argument here. The thread was not made for arguing.
