Yeah, exactly. Snes Dub was sick, but this new shit he's releasing is disgusting, in a bad way. Have you heard hip hop? Utter wank. It's hype music, not dubstep anymore.

I never knew what was old and what was new with Rusko, but I just listened to those two tunes and I agree. Hiphop sounds like it was made in about 10 seconds, seeing Rusko at glade really put me off him. I love Jahova (not sure why) still though.

Was never really a fan, I know tunes like Jahova and SNES Dub mean a lot to people and they were allright at the time but they were never anything that great.

I saw a bit of Rusko at Glade this year and it was really quite bad, which was a shame because I heard he was really good live.. he just played so much cheese, I don't understand how anyone could even create those kind of tunes. Fair play to him though, he's getting his p's innit.

He makes a lot of stuff, some of it I think is awesome and some is just not to taste but he is a good producer. And to answer the question he is about the most popular producer in dubstep atmo so yes people still like him.

I hate his midrange, heavily detuned wobbles playing random melodies. Where's the soul? I like Jahowa though.

snes I liked
Jahova I liked
Cockney I liked
Mr muscle I liked
....
New stuff wut?

It doesn't seem to carry any weight to it, and the rinsed samples he's used in the good tunes get done time and time again, they aren't fun to listen to after the 5th tune they're used in.

Happens all the time in lots of genres. Look at Photek from 2000 onwards. How could somebody who made such definitive tunes turn around and make the Solaris album?

because people hate putting out the same shit over and over. example: burial/fourtet split

if they are doing what they want to do, there's nothing you can do but ignore it and move on.

i don't see how bad tunes can bother you when you are going out looking for them...
now if its a bad dj playing shit tunes every night...find a new place to go.

It's just a horrible low sample rate sound playing random notes. Fucking hell it's horrible.

Sure - I have absolutely no issue with growth, artistic progression, change - that's all fine. But when you see the underlying quality just kind of dry up and evaporate, it's sad... like losing a friend sort of.

Because (and this is only IMHO) it's one thing to explore new flavors and all that and quite another to just kind of sit back and rest on your laurels and believe it when peeps tell you "you can do no wrong!" so you sort of wank out some new tunes, think they'll be received as well as the earlier stuff, and act surprised when nobody buys it: it's like getting used to a brand of something only to have the quality disappear overnight, leaving you feeling ripped off.

But you're right when you say there's nothing to do but move on. Thankfully there's a lot more good new stuff out there in all styles if you just look hard enough.
