that's the ticket. purism is inherently fascist. blend the strengths. mutate. metamorphasise. don't think about it too much. if the beats are moving you, then just go with the flow. for me dubstep was always about revitalising 'Dance Muzik' in its broadest sense. its a creative stepping-off point for lots of interesting avenues of exploration.

agreed.

Fuck all to do with dubstep...

Cracking quote though!

Blackdown wrote:it's laughable what people tag as dubstep these days

That seems to be a laughable statement in itself. It seems to go completely against the whole ethic of what this music is about - which is to push the boundaries and explore possibilities.

There were such diverse sets played at DMZ, all of which would be classed as sub bass music that gels together an overall vibe that people are feeling.

"Dubstep" is just an all encompassing banner which is being used because it's easy as a general descriptor that pulls together different artists under one umbrella, and there's no other name that's stuck. Would you rather that be so, or would you rather it be split into a million different descriptors that splinter the scene? I know which I'd rather have..

all i meant was theres a lot of people making tunes and while that might be all great and healthy im here becuase i like going to fwd and dmz YGM

ultimately people dont want to get left out and are obviously attracted by the open nature of this scene but all im saying is if youve made a few tunes and put them on myspace dont think you've made it

If you'd believe Blackdown, anything not out of the DMZ camp and without his seal of approval isn't Dubstep. A lot of these heads seem to eager to point out the history and how they were on it from day. Yes there will always be and needs to be classifications of what is what, every single one of our brains is wired up to do that whether we like it or not. But what militant pigeon holing brehs don't realise, is dubstep isn't just the Croydon/south london crew beats anymore, there's a whole world out there and the face and sound of Dubstep is changing and evolving with every release. I'm not denying it's history and certainly not denying any respect to anyone who has contributed to the scene, only pointing out that it is changing and will continue to do. You can either get hung up on calling a 138 halfsteppa with an extra ghost snare in it 'breakstep' or not.
