DJ: that deep sound

Me: oh you mean the kick (solo'ed it)
DJ: no, that deep bongo sound
Me: eehhrr... there is no bongo in this song, i'm pretty sure you mean the bass (muted it) does it still play?
DJ: yeah that's it, the bass
Me: cool, how would you like it? explain "higher" to me
DJ: just higher, so i can hear it better
Me: i make it louder (fader up 3 dB)
DJ: no
Me: ok, (raised the filter frequency in synth) better this way?
DJ: no
Me: let me try this (transposed +5) now???
DJ: no, can't you make it sound like a conga?
Me: ????!!!??? eeehhr no (bass was played legato, thru the whole 4 bars) are you sure you want a conga instead of the bass?
DJ: yes
Me: (muted bass, played some conga sounds) this is a conga, do you still want it?
DJ: no it doesn't sound bassy enough, where is the bass anyway?
Me: i need a cigarette

What exactly do you deem as experimental?
From the old days, most tunes sounded the same. Just drums and deep sub basslines. Not too much experimentation
Infact, in more recent years, people have been doing different things, trying out newer sounds, styles & influences, experimenting.

A track shouldn't need the sparsest drum arrangement to be classified as experimental imo.
Do you say zerbaman? Or do you say zebraman?

I'm not saying it does - 2562's new stuff is wacky and hectic!! Really far removed from the sparse stuff on his first album.

Maybe its because I'm still discovering new tunes everyday, but dubstep is still very experimental to me. You look a the transformation from dub to DMZ's Haunted to the commercialization (aka Nero Rusko etc) to the up to the minute Flux Pavilion stuff, not to mention Purple, 8 bit, Glitch, brostep (Datsik, excision), annoying robot noise-step (Skrillex, Bare Noize), not so annoying robot noize-step (16 bit + Propatingz Bablyons Scared for example)

There tons of stuff, its way more diverse than even rock was 10 years after creation.

On topic, the most common one for me is when I'm listening to the freshmen in my college taking about how they made thier tune;

Kid 1: Yeah, so I put some drums on it, compressed them to make them louder, and then stuck a subtractor there and made some sub bass
Kid 2: But my drums never come out that loud when i do that
Kid 1: Thats cos I got this neat trick, set the ratio to 1:1 and turn the gain all the way up, see!

Me: Hey check out this tune I'm working on!
Friend: That's awesome, the intro is a bit long though and why is it so dark, and slow?
Me: The intro is not long, it's 16 bars.. It's slow because dubstep is made in 140 BPM, and that's slower than that dancefloorshit you listened to.
Friend: No dubstep is fast, fast as fuck.
Me: You must be thinking of DnB?
Frined: Oh yeaaah, why don't you make that?
Me: I like dubstep..
Friend: Why is it dark?
Me: :u: :q:
Friend: :6:

Btw, he noes nothing about producing but he thinks he know everything..

Yeah I was not far away from slapping him..
I hate it when people think my tunes will be the freshest shit on a Flux Pavilion EP.. I don't usually make tunes to dance to. I don't usually make tunes to be DJ-friendly. -Just check out this meallow track. -D00D WHERES THA DR0PPPPPP. MAEK EET SAY Y0Y.

Saw this posted on another forum:
ok, this is gonna sound a little wierd but here goes
right now i have no speakers for my laptop and the normal ones are quite shit tbh(like most laptop speakers)
so ive done the age old thing of rigging the headphones to the guitar pickpus and started running it through my amp. just so i can have a little definition to my music.
anyway my question is, can this harm my amp in anyway especially when listening to dubstep
just like how a bass guitar can ruin a guitar amp, can the bass in music do the same
also, inb4 dubstep is shit (even though i know the first post is almost destined to be that :haha: ),

I'm not sure if I understood what you were trying to say but did you just try to claim that it's called 'volume' and not 'gain'? O.o
