Yeah, cause those two things are in abundance in the dubstep scene.

Yeh, that tune ace. The single had a mint remix on it too, with some guy reading out all the dictionary definitions of 'blackout'.

There's a well funny tune with some guy shouting out 'Murderah', but I played it at a party once, when the majority of folk were on mushrooms, and someone started shouting out 'Burger Bar' - this is in my head now whenever I hear that tune.

He also does a funny pastiche of the 'Godzilla' theme, called Toddzilla :lol: :?

right. that's why people from dnb are coming over to dubstep: Even though everyone makes a lot of money in dnb, there's FAR more to be made in dubstep. :roll: :lol:

fucking nonsense is what that is
does everyone really want the scene to grow?
why?
for me that glass is half empty.....

Already for me there are the right amount of quality releases (just too many to reasonably afford without smoking less), and events.

On D&B producers and dubstep - as long as its not just for cash/fame this must surely result in some good tunes?


uhm people don't get rich and famous from dubstep or dnb. most people don't even make enough to quit their day job
uhm agreed there are limited opportunities but be fair, some dubstep dj/producers travel the country and world djing, have agents, make money selling records etc
I just meant that such success could be a motivation for people turning their production skills to dubstep.

and you didn't say why does everyone want the scene to grow?

you have to be a teenager to not want the scene to grow

any reasonably minded adult would understand why we want the scene to grow

this is not secret music for a handful of internet nerds

or alternatively you have to be a teenager to want this scene to grow?

maybe anyone older would have already experienced the demise of a good scene already and would not wish that on dubstep

sorry for being dumb but you want it to grow because?

^ i'm sure there's a difference in 'wants' depending on the region of the world in which you live. UK regions may NOT want it to grow, b/c it's prolly nice and comfy at the moment. ...BUT stateside, down under or eastward towards japan they may not be at the 'perfect' level, but in order for them to get there it has to grow, which means, inevitably, it will continue to grow in the Kingdom...maybe "too" much in the eyes of some....

if only nobody ever got to hear dnb, it would still be safe in some bar in london where the same 100 ppl could enjoy it properly without the rest of the world tainting it with their own take on it

also the legions of followers wouldn't ruin the producer's heads and force them to make crappy tracks

do i have to put an eyeroll emote here

Dubstep's going down bitch! An im gonna fuck it in the arse and run off with its wallet.

Already planned its destruction, about to unleash my own brand of tunes composed entirely of collages of Nelly acapella's over out of time 808 claps and percussive animal noises. Crucially there is gonna be absolutely no bass
so that the under 13 crew can play em out the loudspeaker of their mobiles as much as they want. I can hear the money rolling in from ringtone sales now! Im gonna be the dubstep crazy frog you cretins, show me the fucking money bitch!

i KNOW the dubstep community supremely outnumbers what's going on stateside. i know this. and maybe in the u.k. your beloved dubstep community is being swamped by so called "bandwagoneers". having said that, you may not want dubstep to grow just so you can hold on to your precious "scene", but we need it to grow stateside. i'm part of the dnb exodus and have no problems letting you know that. having been around dnb for some time now, stateside support for anything besides fall out boy is non existant and i see the same tired heads at every event and have since '99.

new blood is always good, gents. how can you fault someone for being down with something that you feel? you like it, why can't i? why can't i try my hand at a new challenge musicaly? this shit about watered down tracks is garbage. bad production gets exposed for what it is, so why worry about it? it's all about support fellas, so let's have a little for the bretheren in the u.s. and a.
