Brostep / Skrillex and the Forum.

[ehbes]

fucking banana's

if you live in a place where the deeper scene isnt big, then chances are the only nights that will be avaliable to you are going to be bro ones.... and whats the point of going to them?

and as for staying at home if you dont like whats out there? well.... some people dont wanna be hermits

Why act like I said just to stay home in your bedroom on your own?

I said get some friends round, maybe put on parties, get some people introduced to the sound. Maybe even put on a night if you can.

Beats coming to this thread and moaning about brostep?

And for those that moan that when they say they like dubstep, people ask if they mean Skrillex, I've gotta ask, how often does that really happen? Why not show them some tunes you do like? My girlfriend's brother thought dubstep was shit because it was all noise, I made him a CD with stuff like DMZ, Mount Kimbie, Burial, etc. trying to cover the whole scene, and now he knows.

Brostep is shit, but people can only listen to stuff they know. If nobody is gonna do that for you, and it bothers you so much, be the change you wanna see.

I really don't think it's fair to say that all brostep is shit (assuming that brostep just means heavier dubstep). Here's what I think: obviously Burial, Skream, Loefah, Coki, etc. are awesome and under appreciated, but saying that all of the harder producers out there are shit just because they don't stick to a certain chilled, grimy form is kind of hipstery and lame. I listen to both forms of the genre for different reasons. I get just as pissed as the next guy when someone says something about Skrillex being "the king of dubstep" or whatever. The fact is, it's stupid to get angry because a genre has evolved and become "less cool" because it's mainstream or whatever. I don't even think you can say Skrillex is shit to be honest. I enjoy listening to him for the same reasons that I enjoy listening to other pop music. Because it's... pop-y haha. I don't think one style is necessarily better than the other. The brostep/origional dubstep debate is like quarreling over whether forks are better than spoons. Yes, Burial and the likes are fucking awesome, but I think it can also be said that producers like Flux Pavillion, and Datsik are fucking awesome as well.

he uses the same baselines in every song

[Sexual_Chocolate]

skrillex is the david guetta of this whole 'bass music' scene

every song sounds the same & the kids seem to eat it up like ice cream on a hot day

That's the thing. Brostep does not just mean heavier dubstep. There's plenty of heavier stuff that isn't brostep.

And to those moaning about there not being any deep nights near them, that has nothing to do with brostep. I can guarantee wherever you are in the world it is easier to go to a deep night in 2012 than it was in 2005.

No need to be a dick dude. I was just seeing if anyone else agrees with me. In fact where I live, I'm the only one who even has heard of guys like Loefah, so I have to put up with all of the Skrillex lovers. I'm not trying to seem like some revolutionary, I just don't get to chat much with people who know the classics. No douchebaggery intended.

What the hell is the definition of brostep anyway? From what I've seen it appears the only answer is heavy dubstep or Skrillex

[dickman69]

I hate the word "heavy"

b/c i think of this


others think of this


we should just stop using any adjectives, no more genres

[BonerJams04]

Brostep = Docta P, Mt. Eden, Datsik, Excision, Flux Pavilion, Borgore.
Mid - Range Basses over Sub.
Boring drums.

[Shum]

Brostep is.

[_TraX_]

Electronic music for the kiddies to teach them the ways of the glowstick.
I actually think the quality is going to shit. You used to be able to spot some quality once in a while but now it seems as if people are just trying to cop Datsik, Skrill, or Flux Pavillion.

the snare is probably the most irritating thing

the snare is probably the most irritating thing

Brostep snares arent even snares. They sample the sound of domestic abuse and add distortion/reverb.

well, it's only a matter of time until they're all sampling real sticks

Hmmmm, sampling real sticks, you say? Wouldn't that add a sped- up element to the track?

i think you mean ember breaks
