Some people decide this is a niche they are particularly into. Some people like to drop a few of these tunes in their regular Dubstep or DnB sets. There seems to be a massive ego problem on this forum to anything new - people making out that something has been around for ages already and that if something fresh is pointed out then it must be from "n00bs".
Whether it is here to stay or not.. who cares? Fact is that a few mixes of some drumstep tunes in any set right now pretty much always smash up the dancefloor!

Mate, I'm not being funny right, but every post you make on this forum is simply null and redundant after you stated that Scuba doesn't get bookings or smash dancefloors. You're a joke.

I hold my hands up.. I had never heard of him. Now having listened to his album I can say he really isn't to my taste. To me that is chillout music, not dancefloor. Maybe in the daytime whilst lying on the beach at Outlook I might like it more!

Oh please.. I was backing up the kid who called it Dub in the 1st place! He was only saying it as an abbreviation, and him being American.. you know how they like their abbreviations! So kiss my ass!!

back to Drumstep.. maybe this has been posted already, but if it has it deserves another post. For me the greatest Drumstep tune written to date! And if you Scuba, Mt Eden ambient loving lot are going to bitch about its wobbly bassline, then have a go!

WOW.

peep this new genre swingstep!

am curious what it is that bugs people so much about a new genre? People were freaking out when Dubstep came about saying it's just halfstep garage or grime with slightly better production.

I'm with what everyone else says... your posts a fully stupid.

This is just D'n'B... what the hell is different about it? I don't like it because i didn't really like D'n'B much the first time around.
There's just too much sound crammed too close together because of the tempo. D-Bridge and instramental do it much better in my opinion, less predictable and much more interesting.

What's different about it? are you really so fucking deaf? Ask the producers who make it! Heist, Original Sin, Taxman, Dub Foundation, Crissy Criss and argue with them about what to call it. I am not the one who gave it the name! If you didn't like DnB much the 1st time round then I can understand why you can't hear the difference!

It's still drum n bass just with more emphasis on the bass than other tracks and to the detriment of attention payed to the other elements.. basically, they've spent so much time on the bass they think it makes up for the rest of the tune
Sub-par stuff (pun NOT intended)! The more prominent stuff (mostly jump up, not that I don't dislike 'jump up' it's just that's it an excuse to make a flat track with little originality) went shit again in 2007 and I'm sick to death of flat amens and breakneck hi-hat smashers, a good track should have equally good elements and a bit of variation so this 'drumstep' doesn't qualify as such right now there's loads of dnb with basslines like this AND better drums so I don't get why people are getting hyped on it

Maybe I'm wrong...

That is one of the saddest things I've read in a long time regardless of if you are wrong or right.

if it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck, it's not a badger.

same sounds, same bpm different drum pattern

i love dnb, i love dubstep, but drumstep is just a really stupid term like something a hipster or scenester with no prior knowledge of either genre would come up with

Trollstep.

Don't care who came up with it. Why does a new name hurt you so much though? Fuck hipsters and scensters as you call them.. to be honest I don't even know what they are. I have been into DnB, Dubstep since year dot and don't really pay attention to other people's opinions (as you may have noticed). I like what I like, and often appreciate what I don't like.
BTW, that Heist tune you posted ain't Drumstep! Can you really not hear the difference?

am i crazy or is chico red the new rinseballs? kid chats bare nonsense

how can you even be on this forum and not know scuba, or even hotflush for that matter... what a joke

also, arguing over subjective things such as made up sub genres is a waste of time... to each their own

People like the minimalism of it. They like the fact that the tune is driven by the bassline. To be honest I would not like to listen to a 60 min set of it, but as I said before, I like the spice that a few tunes gives to a Dubstep or DnB set. If you don't like it, then fine, but you can't say that Dub Foundation or Original Sin are bad producers!

Scuba isn't my thing. And I have many Hotflush vinyls from 2004. Wanna buy them?
