Agreed, time for me to post about stuff I like, and ignore the stuff I hate again!

Great perspective badge

I just searched 20+ pages of my own posts and couldn't find one post where I do this to ANY artist or sound. You're chatting nonsense my friend. Take a moment to check my post history and see what I really say before you just throw air in the wind. :dunce:

Been following Zeds Dead since July '09. For a while I thought that they (yes THEY, it's a 2 person group) did better with electro house then they did with dubstep until I heard Rude Boy. That track is masterfully composed, giving a nod to old school hip hop while ushering in the new dubstep sound. Like the respected artists on here, it is obvious they come from a rich background of influences, and that allows them to make music that is (mostly) unique. Although you can group them in with crappy brostep producers, you have to admit they stand out, and aren't doing the same things everyone else is doing. Whatever else you have to say about them, they have talent.

If you read what I said... In responce to you saying your not very vocal on these things... I'm afraid I dont have the time to do such a detailed search but typing your name and skrillex or brostep shows to me that you are vocal! :dunce: I never said it was in a negative way either, thats you just jumping! And I never said ANYTHING (seeing as we feel the need to shout!) about artist ;) Maybe you should do the reading before the blowing of wind :w:

Anywho;

These guys dont produce stock, samey samey Dubstep and its a shame people cant see past the tags these days to just appriciate it! I like them and Rude Boy is a tune! Dont shoot me for having an opinion! :corndance:

I fail to see how they're different to most producers in the same vein of music. Just because Rude Boy uses an incredibly stock hip-hop break doesn't make it any less terrible.

You know you can just click my name and then click "search users posts" right? If I have a negative opinion about music, I keep it to myself, except in this thread, where I took the bait :oops:

That's what I was saying

These guys are Canadian. I'm surprised they are so popular because most of their tunes sound the same and are remixes of pop songs. They put on a great live show though mashing up all genres.
