i would agree 100% with pkay. this type of dubstep is just american DnB slowed down to 140

i bet in a couple of years it will be 150+, that's how they did DnB at least...

what's weird is that in both cases percussion is the first part of the music that becomes formulaic, wonder why?

Mixing purposes, is my guess.

I don't know, but I bet it would make a crazy sociological study. A mad thesis could come out of that. :glasses:

You had a bad day ? Dieselboy one hell of a DJ, I know that. I just miss the time where he used to play fucking jungle, although he's always been keeping the darker side alive. Get that sand out of your vagina, really :corncry:

severely edited drum patterns don't do as well on the dancefloor in most places. The art of the drum edit is lost on the current generation of producers.

I enjoyed Breakage a bit more back in these days (still enjoy him tho)

Yeah and whether he started it or lot, he is a privileged position to start turning it around. A lot of the audiences he plays to don't know any better than filth it seems, its all down now to what he plays/makes in the future.
This. Seems strange to me that most Americans are nearly oblivious to heavy bassline dubstep. Japanese scene is on point though.

every day i thank the gods that seattle is not one of these places! i'm not even talking about severely edited beats, just something other than the exact same halftime snare on the third beat. there's so many things you can do with the beat while still maintaining dancefloor flavor imho

yeah washington state and oregon are one of the last holdovers for that sound in the states (phoenix being another). Your breakcore scene is one of the best in the world

people who didn't grow up around it don't understand that a 4/4 is a 4/4 and don't understand how to dance to it.

a kid who's 23 grew up with 2-step beats being the norm in drum and bass even. So the whole generation coming up right now just doesn't know the beauty of lush drum editing. There's such great US talent now in those regards that isnt blowing up. I'm still bitter Soundmurderer didn't blow up. Dude was sick beyond belief.

RIP the art of the edit

funny thing is tbh, if rusko never made brostep he would be a fucking nobody, dubstep wouldn't be getting any air play, meaning less people involved, less gigs for the producers, smaller genre, but hey would that be a bad thing or wouldn't it?
ironic i think

ummm... no.

Rusko was already well established producing amazing dub influenced dubstep before making his aggressive tunes.

A horrible, horrible thing to say. And completely incorrect.
