Any Dubbers in here? Let's talk dubstep!

Uhh, I don't know if you'll like me. I like old school dubstep, not much of the new wub wub wub copy and paste stuff. I hate skrillex. Here's a pretty good dubstep song that I like:


Also, Joker is one of my favorites: (Hope you like Sonic the Hedgehog)

Treefingers is a pretty unknown artist who only started producing Dubstep this very year and yet I fell in love with his stuff:


It isn’t exactly “regular” Dubstep either but I like it all the same.

Apart from him I usually listen to random songs and not any artist in particular. Often my favorites are remixes of songs I already love, like this one:

All these are some pretty awesome tracks. I've only been listening to dubstep for going on a year... so I have no idea what's going on with this genre.

I like pretty much every artist I've heard. I've been hung on Flux Pavilion for a while... Skrillex is getting kind of old.

I like a lot of Rusko tracks, etc.

Though Flux got me listening to Foreign Beggars... and I don't even like rap.

One thing I don't get is this emerging 'Dubstep vs. Brostep' thing... anyone know what that is all about? Just seen some punks arguing about it on youtube comments... so idk.

EDIT: I'm totally diggin' me some Treefingers...

I installed a subwoofer, amplifier, and several good speakers in my car and dubstep is pretty fun to listen to through that. Driving a hatchback has its advantages, good gas mileage and not vibration from the bass making my car sound stupid.

Anyway, for Dubstep I usually just listen to the few Shambhala mixes from Excision. 2010 one being my favourite.

Edit: I got into dubstep about 2 years ago and have since lost most of my interest in it though. Excision, Datsik and Rusko were what I mostly listened to, as well as "Techstep" style songs. I don't like how metal and dubstep have so many names to describe the sounds though...

heavy metal, black metal, death metal, symphonic metal, folk metal, epic metal, technical death metal, progressive death metal, symphonic black metal, progressive black metal, minimalist black metal, that's just to name a few off the top of my head. Dubstep seems to be moving in that direction already.

Just ignore it.

Oh and glad I could help.

Why not? You don’t have to use them. But for people like me who do they are great because they make it easier for me to find bands which I like without having to wade through heaps of ones that I totally dislike.

Yep.

...But, there is something that bugs me, every once in while I come across a so-called 'Dubstep' track, when it is OBVIOUSLY Drums n Bass. Then again... if it sounds good, should I care?

A little bit, yeah. If there are set definitions, abide by them, right?

Yea, I suppose... those definitions are what sets apart Rock from Metal, Metal from Power Metal, Power Metal From Black Metal, etc.

I just like Dubstep mainly because I don't see any "DOCTOR P SUCKS EXCISION IS BETTER" bullplops. If a track isn't all that good... you usually see

'Meh, drop kinda sucks.'

and that's about it.

Heh, I kinda like Excision better than Doctor P, but that's because they have different styles.

Okay, I checked it out on Urban Dictionary... apparently...

Brostep features more high pitched ratty sounds, (Kinda like Rusko and Skrillex and Flux, all three that I like.)

While dubstep is slower heaver and lower bass, with A LOT of reggae influence (That may be just my opinion, some of these wubs just have that reggae flow.)

That’s just because Dubstep is still relatively unknown and thus all the retards and children haven’t flooded the respective videos yet.

Also, there is an edit button here on this board :p

I love dubstep!! Deadmau5 and Skrillex are alright but I prefer lesser known artists on youtube. Monstercat media publishes a lot of that on youtube and UKFdubstep is good too

Y'know, one thing my friend mentioned to me today at work:

"Dubstep torrents I download are kindof plopsty... but you find great dubstep all over youtube."

Anyone else noticed this?
