Gotta disagree that DnB has been destroyed. Granted there's that same fucking high pitched lfo in almost every jump up tune - but there's producers out there who are still pushing the finer aspect of the sound and keeping things interesting: dBridge, Break, Phace, Consequence, Survival, Icicle - to name a few.

Every genre was created by experimentation and taking risks. In just about every instance the people who are considered "pioneers" of any genre didn't have a name for the style of music they were making during it's moment of inception.

An artist creates an audience from scratch. Not the other way around. Therefore somebody creating something new can't and shouldn't assume to know what their audience wants to hear before they have one.

As time passes, the pioneers move on to create new things that may even alienate the audience they helped cultivate. The copycats fill the void left behind and typically fill it with a blurry carbon copy of the original that merely picks up on the surface noise of the blueprint set down by the originators. The people who pioneer the genre either ignore the trend they unintentionally helped start, distance themselves from the rubbish they're being lumped into or conform to it and spew bullshit in mass quantities to pay their utility bills.

It doesn't matter what genre we're talking about. There will always be producers who pick up on said surface noise, make renditions of the blueprint in easier to consume quantities for the general public.

Main thing to remember
People will always want 140bpm bass driven music.

puts my thoughts into words almost exactly.
this can be applied to many types of music as well, not just electronica.

dubstep has a giant following in new generation "hippies" like festival goers
huge dubstep acts playing shows with bands like widespread panic
it has an outrageous festival following
the music theory behind it is similar to jamband
i think dubstep is going to be probally the most influential genre of the next generation of music
music comes in decades
and the tens and teens
will be filled with dubstep i feel
at wakarusa this year its like atleast half dubstep bands i think

Dubstep defines the new generation of music, kids born these days will listen to dubstep when theyre teenagers...not fucking shitty RNB and cheesey pop or death metal and indie 'slit-your-wrist' puke!

Then we ignore what they play, and push out the good shitttttt :)
I think as long as there are different styles of dubstep being produced by different artists then i dont think it can ever get boring...

one thing i like about dubstep is how it hasn't gotten wrapped up in the subgenre bullshit of drum'n'bass...

like seriously, i got bitched out on youtube for calling apex neurofunk, when apparently he's "liquid techstep." sounds like neurofunk dnb to me, guiis.

dubstep is dubstep. there's chill dubstep, bad ass dubstep, but it's dubstep.
