Dubstep thread...

[MikeMike]

okay, so ive only heard like 4-5 songs total, i know nothing about this genre, other than of those that i have heard, a LOT are repetitive beats, but there are some that are actually pretty good...

so, ATOT what do you have for this genre?

 

[BassBomb]

i cant describe which edge of dubstep I like, but guys like breakage always do me in

 

[Kirby]

i got burnt out on it really quick.

 

[MikeMike]

can i get some ideas on songs, etc... im trying to actually listen to them on a system... if anyone happens to randomly link to the one that i absolutely think is a GREAT song (i have NO idea artist/title/etc) i would be fucking estatic.

my biggest problem currently is that my speakers have a low filter set at 60hz... ned a sub so bad, but my Marantz 1120, doesnt really have a sub output...

 

[BassBomb]

not sure how you are listening to dubstep without a sub

i may be off on where the xover is set at (custom made xover, these speakers were supposed to be for an in-car setup, but i never finished them, so they were put in 1.7cu. ft ported boxes... 6.5" mids and a tweeter... they just dont quite go low enough... perhaps i shall put on my HD280's

Didn't really know about Dubstep, until someone showed me this song. I am now instantly in love.

I'm big on Rusko, SPL, and 12th Planet at the moment. Check out hollowpointrecordings.com, SPL is an up and comer and a fuckin really nice guy. His podcasts are awesome.

 

[scott916]

Also really digging the Subfocus remix of Hold On by Rusko. Find it on youtube.

Breakage sounds like regular chillout music, what makes it "dubstep"? What is "dubstep"?

I have to agree that a lot of it is really really bad and repetitive because it's the cool new thing to do and all, but there is a small percentage of it that is truly ground-breaking and fresh.

"No Protection," Mad professor's remix of Massive Attack's "protection," is a favorite of mine;

Not an acceptable research source , but here's the wiki:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubstep

Dubstep is a genre of electronic dance music. Its overall sound has been described as "tightly coiled productions with overwhelming bass lines and reverberant drum patterns, clipped samples, and occasional vocals".

YouTube has The entirety of No Protection as one Playlist:

Er... I thought this was about straight-up dub

 

[scott916]

And then there's just the straight grime...

 

[Bill Brasky]

My ex used to listen to this crap constantly. *Everyone* we hung out with gave her shit about it...
