Don't like, really not my thing.

Maybe if i was at a club it'd be ok, but for listening pleasure, naw.
It's that shrill sound i don't like about a lot of newer dubstep, just doesn't agree with me.

This neither deserves the name dubstep, nor the syllables this word consists of. It's gabber on -8, nothing more, nothing less. If it reminds me of anything that has the word "step" in it, it's gotta be clownstep. Sorry, but if we need more of that, we also need more of the black plague and blunt daggers for everyone.

ditto. there's some of that shrillness that i cant take like some of flux pavillion's remix's and what not but sometimes it just gets too much

i like to listen to a wide variety of dubstep but i rarely if ever play a set with dubstep. not enough people around my college really know about it.. there is definitely a large group of people who do and who really like it, but not enough to really justify throwing it into a set..

But seriously. If you want some good reggae influenced, glitchy dubstep... check out Bro Safari... I know, the name makes me think of brostep too, but Amazon Rock is a fantastic tune!
Not the full tune, but best I could find on youtube:

LOL... really..?

I think DJTT has its fair share of open minded DJs. Just cus something spans various genres or pushes things forward doesnt always mean its actually any good.

Horses for courses. Each to his own. One mans poison and all that



Grrr... i hate that. I get that a lot now.

What i mean is that, when i started getting interested in the dj'ing world a few years ago, i had this image that dj's were the most musically cultured people on earth. that they knew 50's jazz or country just as good as they did 21st century EDM. That is exactly why i got into DJ'ing. i was fronting a rock band for almost a decade when i decided i wanted more. I'm just a music head and enthusiast. Throw almost anything at me and i'll find something likeable about it and i'll appreciate that it exists. And for as long as i've been DJ'ing, i've been discovering new artists and new genres and i've pretty much loved every second of it. A-Trak, to me, is the perfect example of what i think an accomplished dj should be. Not by his skills, but by his knowledge of music. The guy is a fucken music encyclopedia! But i've come to realize that many, many, many dj's do not see eye to eye with me. The more i got into it, the more i realized that alot (if not most) dj's have their little segment of music that they beleive is good music (which usually it is!) but will consider the rest crap. I see them all the time here, in clubs, and pretty much everywhere where there's dj's. And i know it's impossible to win an argument with these people because they're just going to say that they like "real" music, but i persist to say that they are close minded.

I really, really really really wish there were no labels in music and that we could just let it be what it actually is... which is music.

DJ'ing should be about praising the universality of music, not telling people what's good and what's not.

But hey, that's just what i think.

I agree a million percent

[wrong chris]

i find it ironic how this guy comes in here and assumes anyone who doesn't like one single debatably bad song by doctor-p is close minded and doesn't appreciate a wide variety of music. hypocrite much?


if you want to call yourself open-minded, maybe you should just accept that not everybody shares your taste in music or likes every song that was ever created. do you think your hero a-trak likes every song created in the history of music? get real kid.

Oh and to the OP, the link is down so i haven't actually heard that yet.

I love Dubstep, and I completely understand what people are saying in this thread.

It really is highlighted for me, with Skrillex. Now, there are a couple of his tracks I particularly like. (Scatta, Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites, Rock N. Roll (Will Take You to the Mountain), Hey Sexy Lady). But I find that overall, he's the crux of fanboyism as far as Dubstep is concerned. And that's pretty much my beef with him and his music.

I really feel that for a true appreciation of any genre, you need to know the foundation stones. That being said, as Dubstep is gaining in popularity like wildfire, there are a lot of people who have no wish to find out, or just have no idea where to begin. And they all act like 14 year old children with a potty fetish.

I won't lie, I enjoy some of the humour that comes along with Dubstep. But it's mostly just annoying after a point. I can't stand people who are ignorant. And I guess that is bleeding through quite a touch with the current fanbase in Dubstep.
