i personally prefer less bass heavy dubstep - stuff that comes more from garage than cheesy drumnbass. when i saw the others a couple of weeks ago it was bass wobbler after bass wobbler and in the end the whole set just sounded messy - almost verging on industrial.

big up sully, ikonika, joker, and pinch for melodic genius.

because he's an artist with an obvious interest to try his hand "innit".....just my guess....
now to address the post topic...
i got into it same ish time(end of 04/) & i agree thatthe tunes were alot more "chilled out"(for lack of a better term at 326am), the rhythms were sparse, & the whole feel of the music was not as "hype" based as it is now. and most of all it wasnt so abusive in regards to bass.
Though,, i except that times change things progress.... and i always welcome this. There is soo much music in the world,, and just too much to be discovered by individuals for anyone to get twisted about the way something once may have been. Apply some effort seeking&discover something that will satisfy. Everytime you find a new "sound", the refreshing feel of it will be the award....It's alot more enjoyable then being over zealous & cynical. plus it never hurts to know or hear something new,

i totally disagree, obviously you will never get back that original first dubstep experience, but if your looking in the right places you can find artists putting out new music that continues to blow your mind, but dub as a whole generally runs on the same scale, and has been around long enough that people have really worked it over, nothing beats the excitement of finding a new genre you love, but who knows, im sure there will be some new dubstep sub genres that might excite you again?
I agreed up to the part where you said "dubstep sub genres", that is something we don't need! Dubstep was all about creativity, and breaking boundries, but it seems like not enough guys are breaking those boundries anymore because there making "darkstep" or "liquid dubstep". Just going down the drum and bass route
ummm ,, ? sub-genres,,generally indicate that the sound has been experimented with resulting in an off-shhoot of the original sound ....the progression of a sound is a result of someone being creative, breaking the boundaries of the original sound,,,,, ....
Care to explain??? (incase i misunderstood you).

I like banger after banger live, especially when everyones going batshit crazy. On mixes, it can get a little boring.

People start labeling themselves inside those sub-genres, and not thinking outside the box. From what i've read in other posts, i'm not the only one who thinks sub-genres are a bad idea.

It's not the labels that make shit generic tunes, it's the unimaginative producers. If you don't want to be labelled as 'wobblestep', try making tunes that don't sound like a bargain basement knockoff of Coki.

But anyway, to answer the original question, no I'm not because although I find it pretty boring when DJ's roll out a whole series of predictable bangers (and I mean boring in an "I don't actually feel any compulsion to dance" sense rather than an "I don't feel any compulsion to stroke my chin and write an essay" sense - I rave harder if there's more off the wall unexpected shit going on) I tend to go and see DJs who go further than that and do something a bit more fun and exciting.

This might be a london ting, but around here if you keep seeing predictable boring DJs then you've got only yourself to blame because there is A LOT going on.
