yeah you're right. it got a rise out of me and i've no doubt it will affect others the same way - who cares? its a forum - who cares if everyone reads it and gets a bit annoyed or has a laugh at it?
you think i'm dumb for posting it - i think you're dumb for making these po faced comments.
and for talking about my penis

Why do some sections of America find it nessessary to compleatly downplay British achievements. Are you trying to write us out of history or something?
You change OUR language, steal OUR post-war jet engine technology, take credit for inventing the revolver and made us disband our empire due to us being broke after WW2 (to name just a few things). What is your problem? You won the war some 226 years ago. Let it go!
Do what you want, you always do, but you are not taking credit for Dubstep, not on my watch!!
This guys rant is a clear example of how crystal meth is sweaping some sections of the U.S

give us back our post war jet engine techology damnit!!
this is beyond a joke!!
don't you know we invented the revolver??!!!

crunc tesla is a bright dude and makes a lot of decent points but he has completely missed the thing that UK urban culture has which US urban culture does not, which was completely essential to the development of dubstep and which DOES make it primarily a UK innovation:
JAMAICAN CULTURE
from the importance of soundsystems, to bass, to dubplates, to the space of the sound, to the ways that reggae producers use dub FX. all of those things are the product of people in the UK growing up with reggae in a way that americans don't. while it's true that kids in urban london love american hip hop and definitely have always been inspired by producers like timbaland etc, to reduce dubstep and grime to an offshoot of american southern hip hop is just ignorant of the very unique influences and cultural realities that made dubstep possible.

Yeah, exactly
and also the jungle influence is HUGE, and he ridiculously underrates the importance of garage to dubstep

my point tho, OF COURSE "dubstep" evolved in UK... theres no debating that...
but its not a isolated phenomena..
you just cant look at these things in a linear fashion
