Breakstep

[wubstep]

It's only taken me about 4 years to realise this is what I'm all about. Sound has nearly all but died out, but I don't care about listening to 'dated' music.

This is essentially the Industrial Thread but hopefully more people get involved.

Dubstep with breakcore/hard dnb/jungle/gabber/tekno/metal influences, hit me!

Threnody, I'm looking at you after hearing that Glitch'n'Bass mix!

this is none of that really but my favourite breakstep tune by far, one of my favourites regardless of genre tbh



hotflush used to be bang on this style





2004 can you come back please?

[wubstep]

Wrong speed, nvm.







Remember when dubstep used to actually have some kick?

[wubstep]

Fuuck, never heard any of this early Distance stuff.

Amazing, another thread where everyone just posts YouTube videos - we need more of these round here IMO.

[wubstep]

Shut up and kiss me

[Electric_Head]

Do me a favor and add titles for the tracks at least.
For all of us behind a firewall at work that just see white blocks.

i really enjoy the mellower edge of breakstep too, iE toasty and some TRG tunes. hate when people try and tell me it's breaks tho. hell no, whenever i heard something called "breaks" it was shite

[threnody]

I don't think breakstep is dying out as you say wubstep... no need to just listen to old music to get the breakstep flava, you just need to go deeper underground..... There are some classics and a good place to start is my history of breakstep show which was on Sub FM a couple of months ago....

I've mostly been making breakstep lately, it isn't going anywhere because I pretty much hate all my music even though I shouldn't (just ask Svpreme Fiend!), but it's fun to make. I've made breakcore for years and trying to get the same intensity out of 140 bpm at halfstep is a nice challenge.

[scattybeanhead]

ahh i absoultely love all this sorta stuff, kinda gutted that i only discovered it a few months ago because its real difficult to find this sorta stuff on vinyl. if it's still about could someone point me in the direction of some current producers that make this kinda stuff? perhaps you threnody since you seem to know your stuff!

Sickness. Here's a favourite of mine from back in the day, still play it out when appropriate.

[Pistonsbeneath]

big up threnody your get darker set was ridiculous

[hasezwei]

so much great music in this thread!
kinda funny to see how much the production/sound quality level has skyrocketed in the last years yet at the same time the music turned shit. i always thought higher general production value in a scene led to better music but oh well...

edit: yeah bigup thredony (threnody? damnit!) i loved that set. that squire of gothos tune had me jump up and bang my head
