there is a lot of breeze written by any author and mistakes are made... so what? it only matters to people that have nothing better to do than criticise... to someone who knows nothing or very little about dubstep and is intrigued by an article they will surely read more and then make their own interpretation of the truth or discover the facts as I did when I got into it through pinch in 2004 and did a load of reading of blogs and articles of a genre of music that I really clicked with. Not all of them consistent but equally interesting.Mattron wrote:what the fuck DOES that matter?brasco wrote:what the fuck does that matterFog4 wrote:Can you point me to something I could read that you have 'done right' that is in the public eye using popular media such as mtv which has loads of views from jo public.

This is a damaging piece of journalism; it's gonna get read by a a lot of people who are then going to have a warped, misinformed outlook of dubstep.
If I had a BBQ and brought lots of quality meat for people to eat, and then someone turned up with a big shit and put it on my barbie, I'd kick them and look down at them.Fog4 wrote:All I am saying is don't look down on or kick someone who is trying to contribute... it's just not cool!

Nearly all of the articles promoted on this forum are decent and worth a read. This dude turned up, writing for possibly the biggest 'music' publication type media platform in the world, with the most shit article in the history of dubstep. That's equivalent to putting a turd on my barbie. He went and put dog shit all over Blackdown's nice spicy chicken.

Hi, my name's Benjamin & i'm all about; city life, ecletic electronic club music, late nights and early mornings, 8 bar grime, tattoos, video games, comic books and drinking 15 cups of tea a day.
iRep for MTV, VICE magazine & RinseFM.
i think the thing that makes it the worst (incorrectness aside) is that its for MTV which gets such a large viewing audience.seckle wrote:if you knew that probably hundreds of thousands of people would read an article you wrote, would you research it to the end, or would you spend an an hour and click submit? when you have this big of an audience, you have a responsibility.

As for the comments about Bedroom producers... keep outputting your remixes, learn the tools of the trade then make your own sound. Those that are cynical about bedroom producers need to remember that its one of the ways to learn, ok it murks the scene a little but then it helps them get noticed if its a good and boosts confidence to produce their own dubs....
Kudos to the writer of this article, some of its breeze but at least your doing something!

i think yall are giving mtv way too much credit...
do you think they are handing out blog space cause their traffic is huge? lol... my guess is their traffic is getting smaller daily and they are desperate to find a way to attract people...
prolly double the amount of people read this article cause of all the fuss/free publicity
nobody gives a shit what mtv thinks about music, beyond trying to get a few $ so they will license your song for some crap show, and even then the rates are absurdly low considering how big youd think mtv is....
next thing you know, weekly podcasts...
and considering how quick cats are to jump on the scion train, im sure mtv will find plenty of usefull idiots to help them float their sinking ship..
