Why is this thread so popular?

[WatchYourStep]

The first time I heard Mt. Eden was through rub-a-dub-dubbb a few months ago, and thought "Hmm, that's pretty cool".

Last week, I get a text from a friend saying "Mt Eden, can't get enough of this guy!" and I thought "that's cool".

Then last night, I had THREE requests for Mt. Eden. Now listen, I never said his music was bad, but I'm confused how he's so popular. Plz esplain 2 me, kthxbye.

Dunno,

I can't stand him

[WatchYourStep]

Never said I can't stand him, just want to understand ze hype!

[SketchyDub]

poor production, tried to remix burial for christ's sake!

He's for the kids who know nothing about actual dubstep just "youtubestep" ?

[Numan]

2.68million views on youtube on one tune..... wtf

[drokkr]

Youtube sounds great on laptop/standard PC speakers.
Kids are deaf(controversial?)
Adults are deaf.

Fuck Youtube... except for Monty Python clips

i think its also because he actually put dubstep in his name. i know people who literally go on youtube and type in dubstep. i know a girl who loves mt eden then i showed her some joker and it was like she didn't understand it if u get me? i've heard people ask wheres the wobble when i've played mala hahaha.

listen to any mala through ipod headphones on youtube and it sounds soooo shit.

[sines]

[ghosthack]

He remixes a lot of popular stuff maybe.

[Lichee]

1. remixes big tunes
2. mid range wobble that sounds good through basically every set of earphones and speakers
3. has dubstep in his name

I've said it before and i'll say it again:

worst production i've EVER heard and the burial remix made me rage harder than anything i've ever seen on youtube...

I reckon DSF crew need to fly out to NZ and merk that wasteman before he ruins dubstep outright...

[The Phantom Banger]

when i type dubstep in youtube Mt Eden Dubstep - Sierra Leone.

that basically sums it up

[Dark Reign]

Ya I dont get it either, his tunes are fuckin shit. And that Seirra leone has so many views but its not even close to as good most other dubstep. it doesnt make any sense

Random comment on the Archangel remix:

"just listened to the original after reading th comment saying it was better......bitch please this is way better in my eyes, i prefer the heavier base, the original is too garage like, not heavy enough, good work Mt Eden all ure tunes kick ass, keep up the good work "



I'm not angry. More...disappointed.

[wolf89]

I am though.

Think my avatar sums up what I wanna do to who left that comment.

Also Mt Eden uploads his tracks on there himself I think and deleted all my negative comments saying stuff like it was talentless emotionless shitly produced bollocks that was ruining dubstep and was for trendy wankers to listen to in student bars while wearing their gay ass skinny jeans and drinking VK.
