5 Positive things about dubstep

Post by DFRNT » Fri Feb 26, 2010 11:28 am

Let's try and keep things positive shall we. Times have never been better, and there's a bit too much bickering for me.

I'll start...

1] Club nights and parties are popping up all over. I can go out at least twice weekly and hear dubstep every time if I want.
2] There are some seriously good new producers emerging, and a great deal of established producers with a lot of talent. if you don't agree, look harder.
3] The genre has expanded beautifully, and from tear-out to chill-out, there's something for everyone. Variety is the spice of life.
4] We still have a fairly burgeoning central forum for promotion, and community - yes, it's growing and there will always be naysayers, but I like it.
5] So many people involved with dubstep and it's surrounding genres are friendly and co-operative. I've lost count of the number of down-to-earth nice people I've met just through producing, DJing and going to nights.

DFNT your #5 is so dead on. with a few exceptions (wont mention the names)...people involved in the dubstep scene are all so down to earth, nice and supportive.

1. it makes me feel better then any other style of music ive heard in my life
2. theres now enough diff styles of dubstep to get you through your day..
3. the dance is fun..and versitile
4. it spreads like wild fire. i cant even explain the amt of people that have just gotten into it recently and LOVE it...and theres still more who have no idea what it is yet.
5. its always changing, always growing, always spreading...
big up the donut crew!

It's such an experience on a big system (beyond just ear candy), anyone who's been to a Youngsta set will know.

I'm too lazy to write 5 things. So multiply above by 5.

1. the fact that it has no rules and can sound like anything

2. bass makes the girls jiggle

3. the boundaries of what people think dubstep is are being challenged and expanded everyday

4. the days of sets filled with the same style of music with no switch up or movement are almost over! tunnel vision is almost extinct!

1) The good music. Which you can feel on many ways with good speakers.

2) The nice people. Who are mostly very open-minded and progressive. You music lovers.

3) The dubstep - techno crossover.

4) The dubstepforum with the mixes, events, house, hip-hop and other music sub-forums. I discovered so much new and old music through the DSF. Massive!

5) DUB !
