This Wednesday I am spinning at a Skrillex Afterparty, the party is taking place about a block from where the skrillex show is so I think there will be a lot of overflow. My question is am I going to want to stick to wobble dubstep? I know if it was me I would probably be sick of hearing it after leaving a Skrillex show, but I’m not sure how people feel. I was planning on just spinning some Dubstep mixed with some hard electro house.
You’d probably want to stay on the heavy side of things, cos people aren’t going to want to come straight out of that and go into deep house or minimal, but I’m sure they wouldn’t be adverse to electro house or something like that. No need to stick strictly to dubstep if you don’t want to.
exactly, skrillex make a lot of electro. If I just came out of a place listening to dub all night I’d like it to change up. Especially because its skrillex too. So many people know him without actually knowing anything about dubstep or the music, so blaring all night at an after place may be overload. You could play electrohouse and people would almost think its dub. I would prefer a mix of both, throw in a few dub tracks and more electro tracks imo.
Just because its a dub thing doesn’t mean he has to follow suit either.
I’ve heard hes been playing a lot of his electro tracks on tour. Plus he was traveling with Zedd and porter robinson for a while, so if they are playing maybe more dub then electro. Its just so many people associate dub with him and yet have no clue its either they are in ignorant bliss.
not to stereotype but I don’t think people going to a skrillex show are gonna want to listen to King Tubby afterwords.. so I’d avoid Dub.
You could always follow the same style and play brostep/electro-house
throw in some dnb
or, if the system is decent, you can wow them with some actual Dubstep..
Mala, coki, old skream, Mala, Kromestar, Mala..
you’ll probably make skrillex seem like total crap, but thats okay!
