IF YOU HAD TO SPLIT DUBSTEP INTO TWO CATEGORIES............

[epithet]

if any 1 decides 2 change it'it will b us guys that named it

I doubt if y'all could rename it even if ya tried. The horse has well and truly bolted. If kode9 cant get any traction with hyperdub as a genre name no scene originators is gonna be able to either i reckon.

Actually maybe oris jay could if he convinved the non croydon lot to branch off

And just by the by if dubstep were to be split, it would have to be along the Ham and non-Ham lines....

YES!

i can't believe no one has mentioned this before

Yes, I know. Seems the obvious choice to me....

I dont think Stenchman was talking about splitting the scene as such...
just that some tunes clearly have a dark vibe...some tunes clearly have a light vibe, and i think he was wondering what tunes you would say fall into that magical ethreal 'in-between' territory.

I listen to alot of music, and would definately agree with the 'good/shit theory' and enjoy the variety of influences you can hear in Dubstep. Inspite of this, I reckon its unrealistic to expect people not to catagorise certain sounds into sub-genres... like it or not, its a natural evolution with any music.

OH YEH ALSO STENCHMAN IS STENCHMAN. DONT LISTEN TO HIS STYLE "REMEMBER" LABELING IS FOR MONEY. LISTEN TO "STENCH MAN" U GET ME. LISTEN TO HIS FREQUENCY. THATS WHY WHEN THE TERM "CHAVS" WAS CREATED BY THE MEDIA I DECIDED TO NEVER SAY IT BECAUSE ITS USED TO PERSECUTE THOSE OF THE GHETTO, WHETHER THEY BE WHITE, BLACK, ASIAN ETC ETC

uh?
