Just strange how the aesthetic differs so much between the US and the UK. Most Americans just don't have a clue..

I'd assume so seeing as I don't see so many people looking so hipster at events. When compared to the US. Both crowds dress so different. Americans into dubstep generally know nothing about the sub-culture..for instance..the whole ''dub'' misnomer.

Dude, I was thrown out of the SAS for being too hard and the US Navy Seals didn't want me because I kept shooting the enemy instead of my own side. I am a double hard bruce lee mother fucking geordie force to be reckoned with, yo. I'd fuck them up.

Depends what you call a hipster too. To me anyone better looking and younger than me is quite likely in the firing line of being a hipster :lol:

I always saw hipsters as being into indie rock, jangling guitars..etc. Don't know how dubstep got involved..wish it hadn't.

Indie is just the staple/standard, along with electro I hear. Hipsters like to be poorly educated in as many sounds as possible.

For me hipsters are just the modern day retards trying to be hippys whilst blogging on their iPad from a tea room with a scone.

You people making assumptions about the US dubstep scene need to realize that most of your "hipster" statements came based off of this fake video you just watched. Other than the hipster stuff most of it is true though. I just don't understand how users with UK as their location know everything about the US Dubstep scene. I surely am not a hipster either.

Don't want to be a Negative Nancy so..got some positive aspects of the American dubstep scene. There's Sub Lab down south, got a healthy scene in the Bay area out west, LionDub in the Northeast pushing things..might be missing a few but yeah.

i liked the bitchy version better :p

I've saw Mount Kimbie at sxsw.... it was about the same crowd as when I saw em in the UK.

Saw Datsik in US and UK, about the same crowd.

The further you get from roots dubstep the less people know about its roots.... that is fairly universal. Little to do with the country.
