Dubstep

[MorningWood]

I like Bassnectar, but thats about it. Like Turbotalon said i'm more of a house/club techno kind of guy.

dubstep and that crap is retarded. it sounds like ass and is made by people with no actuall musical talent.

also the square waves used to make the wobbley sound is a lot more harsh on your speakers than normal sine waves. its kind of like having a nitrous kit instead of having a turbo at the same power level. where the turbo would provide nice smooth oncoming power. the nitrous is just a lot more harsh, on/off, instead of smooth transistions.



wow that is something i never ever knew! I wonder if my sub blew faster because of that...then a regular used sub would have? I dont know prolly just a bad set up,....but i think i might have to disagree with the musical talent...i tried using ableton to learn and get an idea of how dubstep music is made....and there is no way someone with no talent could understand how to make a song....its so complicated! Interetingly though a friend of my parent said the same thing about the musical instruments and i had to go through almost half my collection to find a song with a instrument...ended up being a james bond song :)

Electronic music is very popular and dosnt use a lot of instruments either....though...hmmm

I love EDM, but dubstep I cant get into. Its like robots having sex. Some of the mixed stuff is decent but most of it I dont like.

Trance is where its at!

And LOL at comparing nitrous and turbos to music? wut.


i think he means the hit ...or the drop...?(<---back to dubstep ha wobble wobble)

[viridionplague]

yea i was talking about the ramp and drop off rates. a square wave either demands full power or no power at all. This will cause premature failure of the materials

"Music" is played by instruments (musical ones), not computers IMO.

Who decides what qualifies as an instrument?

Who decides what qualifies as an instrument?

Exactly. Who's to judge whether a computer can't be an instrument?

I do not care for it much. It's def great music to be around in big parties. I just cant stand how mainstream it has gotten, where everyone and their mother is doing a dubstep song. Take Korn for example, that shit is terrible. Or the fact that there is a 'Now That's What I Call Dubstep' cd out now. There's a lot of it that I hate, but some I like. Recently went down to Barfly to see a friend DJ, and I def liked his set.

skyway theater shows is where its at! our local scene and talent is pretty amazing. But yes its definitely not for everyone lol

See my question, to the ones that have listened to dubstep and dislike it...what kind of dubstep or artist did you listen to??? Because the first time i heard dubstep sure wasnt no skrillex...datsik and who ever else has made it big! Instead it was some uber corny skeetchy basement artist's. Personally i come from a heavy, trance, techno, hardstyle drum and base background. Once i discovered Drumstep and the likes IT TOTALLY RE-DEFINED EVERYTHING!

Tiesto, Dead maus and their likes personally arent even on the same field no more....Funny how turbotalon says it needs to be something he can shake it 2 ha HOW COULD YOU NOT GET PUMPED TO THIS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86khmc6y1yE&feature=relmfu....i mean every one has their likes but hmmm!

Not to mention the brake away from traditional flutes pianos, heck what else whistles??? ect is what i personally think makes dubstep unique as well as just different.
