For what it's worth - the term "Drumstep" seems to be exclusively used by the Jumpup / Wobble 'n Screech crew to describe the sort of halftime tunes they're starting to make, presumably because:
A: They've never heard of Amit
B: They've never heard any of the hundreds of halftime DnB tunes that people have been knocking out for years
C: They make music exclusively aimed at clueless teenagers and they want to get bookings at more mixed events where "Dubstep" (which in this particular case generally means "horrid screechy midrange mephedrone noise") is the only electronic music anyone attending has ever heard of.
Grooverider has been using the word on his radio show recently, I reckon "C" covers him. Crissy Criss and that shower are probably "A" "B" and "C" combined.
I like some of the really hyper tracks and some of the chill ones too. Different moods, different parties, even different times at the same parties, most of it can fit somewhere. Never been a fan of dnb (except for these tracks which some of you def still consider dnb but whatever) and probably never will be, but something about the slower syncopation resonates with me and that difference is enough for me to consider this stuff to be.. different, yknow?jolly wailer wrote:so drumstep should be saved as the name for that very formulaic half step tearout dnb sound
tunes like heist - survivor and crissy cris - kick snare drumstep mix
cuz those tunes sounded the most alike out of what I listened to in this thread
like what was referred to as "purposely produced"
the other stuff like steptoe (big tune!) is kind of wot do you call it 2 me.. obv dnb but breaking from the formula
the drumstep chico red is advocating for seems very constricted in what it will sound like - which, fair play - some people will want, much like punters who hear 'dubstep' and think doctor p and not pinch
half time dnb drums with those busy snare ghost notes, some woi woi, reeeeeeeee, whompwhompwhomp
and around and round we go
Are you sure you're listening to the right mix? The entire mix is of tunes with 1 snare per bar instead of 2. I would therefore say it's half-tempo. Might have some fast hi-hats, but the essence is the same.fluffy wrote:Ruckspin I checked out your halftime dnb mix there's some cool stuff on there, until the part comes where it goes double time and then you lost me
