That was the track that introduced me to Dubstep, and thereby EDM;
granted it isn't the hottest shit out now, but wtf do you expect?

Shit was pure genius, the portamento keys over that sub, was just a beautiful deep dark soundscape for the grimey yoof dem!

I remember when I first heard this, I'd never heard anything like it. It was an epiphany.

Not meaning to have a go (which i realise i am) it just annoys me when people start threads putting down tunes. It also annoys me when people start threads bigging up a tune AND DONT PUT AUDIO :x nah only joking :)

n. pl. fo·rums also fo·ra (fôr'ə, fōr'ə)

1.
a. The public square or marketplace of an ancient Roman city that was the assembly place for judicial activity and public business.
b. A public meeting place for open discussion.
c. A medium for open discussion or voicing of ideas, such as a newspaper, a radio or television program, or a website.


2. A public meeting or presentation involving a discussion usually among experts and often including audience participation.


3.A court of law; a tribunal.
As for what the original poster said, I disagree, I was listening to this tune every day for a while before I even knew what dubstep was. This tune made me want to start making dubstep and learn more about the genre. Plus it still goes off in a rave, not many tunes (espeically in EDM) can withstand the test of time like this!

why is the thread so pointless that it made you compose this rather long reply? you obviously care.
yeah i do care, but not that he doesn't like the tune, thats the beauty of music, its each to their own. What I dont like is when someone starts a thread just to put something down. If skream had called his dog fat, or taken his last rolo then fair enough have a dig but why do it for no reason?

and as for Lojik, I agree forums are a place to put forward ideas, but this isnt an idea in my view, an idea is something constructive (in my opinion) I just read the thread and saw someone basically whining that people still like a tune.... fair enough it brought about a discussion but not a very good one

i think it's great.

in other news, have you guys heard about this black senator from illinois? he sounds amazing. imagine if someday, someone like that could be president. it's almost inspiring.

and this phelps kid, chances are he'll do well at the 2008 olympics if he keeps swimming so strong.

really, can't wait to hear what the future brings for dubstep. I feel like maybe me and my bro's could hang out and listen to some heavier stuff, tho...
