Definitely when the term got hijacked by commercial mainlanders and was applied to beats that could otherwise be known as "Mortal Kombat house music."
Also, the day I realized that Skrillex had a long-ass Wikipedia page and Mala had none at all.

Re: Wiley on Battle For Middle You
Yeah, its certainly not "better" now. Its hard to beat the original tune, though. With anything! One of my favorite productions as of late.

Cyrusfx, you are aware that dubstep's been evolving constantly into many, many other things besides brostep, right?

Aw man I totally forgot to promote my own event here that happened 2 weeks ago in Honolulu... Mochipet is coming to town this Saturday. He's pretty talented, and I remember buying the Sharmaji drums remix of one of his tracks (which was actually much better than the original) a year or two ago. As a...

Re: Benga doesn’t ‘want to be any part of dubstep anymore’
Sorry to break it to you guys, but there's new genres of dance music coming up in the world. The Dubstepforum was/is a good idea, I certainly learned more in the last 3-4 years than I ever thought I would about a sound that I found to be novel, interesting, and that really made the most out of curre...

Re: Timbaland: I Created Dubstep
And two years later, Timbaland still makin shitty music for spoiled white kids who want to pretend they're black. Its a market. I guess I shouldn't hate on him for genius opportunism & exploitation of low-level human psychology.

Re: Advice on getting signed.
Anybody can get "signed," making money after that is the hard part. If you want to do both, you must have all of the below: 1. Great talent 2. Great work ethic (work harder than 90% of your peers) 3. Some sociability 4. Some good luck! You have to have all of the above; you can't compensat...

I'm quite excited to be there and I could honestly care less about missing out on shows. I was just hoping that if I got out there and wanted to see some grimy live music I'd hopefully still be able.

Re: If you are a 'real dubstep' lecturer, watch this.
True, I forgot that it is a noble argument to want to make sure that "dubstep remains dubstep" (i dont exactly know what that entails) because this is, after all, the dubstepforum(.com). However, the actual distinction between "evolution" and "bastardization" is relati...
