Looking for new genres to mix

[Gallorance]

I'm looking to expand my music crate from dubstep to more genres.

I prefer genres that can really facilitate growth in skill, I feel rather limited when it comes to dubstep and its debatable to some if dubstep is a genre that can have proper mixing.

I also wonder what are the more common genres of tracks played at clubs but I still take having a genre that can give me a lot of room to explore and create a unique style in equally as important.

Maybe go on beatport and click around in the different genre sections and explore? Start going to different kinds of club nights and see what's being played and what you like?

This is a pretty strange thread, no one can tell you what genres to mix.

I'm actually doing that right now as you replied.

You're a psychic aren't you?

Anyway is there anyone genre that is good for mixing? Dubstep is difficult to do especially when mixing bass lines which not many tracks can do very well due to varied beats.

trap is the new craze lately. 70/140 like dubstep. fairly easy to mix with itself and dubstep.

Try Glitch hop. some of it has dubstep-like elements, but overall its a very varied genre and its a lot of fun to mix.

Thanks guys, I will give trap and glitch a shot and start building those music crates.

Yeah check Beatport & see what you may be interested in!

find a DJ you like. Listen to their sets.

Techno, trance or fidget? IDK what they call it but stuff like this:



I find it to be funner to mix than dubstep and takes a different approach. It also allows for that extended mixing you sound like you're after. The best part of this style is that it really varies in tempo and you'll get a much better feel for how a single BPM or 2 can be so dramatic.

At least thats my experience trying to move out of only dubstep/dnb.

i have been really into uk funky/garage lately, its pretty fun and bouncy, also just some good jungle.
