i dont really follow any of your music these days (to be fair i enjoyed a few of your older tunes) but could you give me an example of something you made other than filth/grimey/brostep whatever is politically correct these days?

You talk about it like it's a century-old tome passed from monk to monk by word of mouth. THIS IS MODERN ELECTRONIC MUSIC.

I LOVE dubstep, but to all u sitting there saying pop is horrible music and everything in the mainstream is wack yadda yadda...hate to break it to u...but a hit dubstep song is often made by 1 guy sitting behind a computer tweaking a programs knobs. Katy Perry, bruno mars hit songs take TEAMS of musicians and writers. Would I rather bump bruno mars over Datsik? Of course not, Im not a faggat. But I would never say Bruno Mars is Horrible music cuz the reality is it takes a TEAM of talented MUSICIANS producers and song writers to make that shit.

Dubstep going Mainstream would only help the genre stay alive and grow. Why would you want to opress such a great genre? I don't get it, explain please.

Hip-Hop had the advantage of being born before the age of information (the internet).
It had time to develop naturally into the complex subculture it is today. Dubstep didn't have a chance.
If Hip-Hop was a fully developed husky feared by millions, then Dubstep is the inbred chihuahua on steroids incapable of living but adored by billions.

you know how rediculous you sound. this is a circle of ignorance to be honest...
the ones who dont wanna know the roots are the ones who shouldnt, because they wont take any notice...i for one know the roots, i love all kinds of dubstep and make all kinds of dubstep...

how can you define people by the music they listen to? just because they listen to a more energetic form of dubstep doesnt mean they dont know shit about it...theres TONS of people who varie in taste, ive seen my name amongst jack sparrow, loefah, kryptic minds, burial (for other than the obvious jokey reasons)...the fact you sit there and criticise actually makes YOU the ignorant one.

rant over.

just because the snares are half time doesn't mean the tempo isn't 184.

a cornerstone of dubstep is the tempo needs to be somewhere in the 140 range, and if there's an exception it's for slower, not faster, tempos.

dude the soad remix is the exact tempo it's supposed to be I dont give a rats ass what dubstep's tempo is. I realize the track isn't dubstep, it's industrial. But if I wrote industrial in my sig i'd get like half the amount of plays

...you guys have some form of hatred towards industrial...? I've heard that track dropped in the middle of a number of dubstep sets and the place blew to pieces literally
