Yep, I agree. But 'brostep' was came directly from dubstep so comparison's are always going to be made, especially as there's a fair amount of crossover stuff.

it's still all just dubstep tho

Yeah that's what I mean, but as the other 2 said, the 'scenes' are separate to some extent.

pkay wrote:you me and the people who may have been around or at least intersted in dubstep in 2005 or so when shit was really starting to pop off can say that....

oh you mean the 2005 where people were already talking shit about people coming in from dnb? That would be right around the time Tech Itch started his dubstep label...hmmmmmm

pkay wrote:From my experiences on this forum when the term 'brostep' started getting tossed around it was most closely linked with the wave of drum and bass folks migrating over and with it less deep sub oriented, reeces, and aspects very closely linked to drum and bass.

oh you're right... no one in dnb knew about dubstep until like 2007 and then it all happened at once.



not

yeah, i suppose it's natural for people to want to pair up and seclude themselves

Where exactly did I say or imply that?

I was deeply involved in drum and bass in 2005 but started becoming interested in dubstep around that time. At that time it's not like all of dnb was on board for dubstep. The majority of the conversations I had with my dnb brethren were about how dubstep was going to die, was just a fad, etc etc. You can't deny that there wasnt a massive migration in 2007. Very steep decline in drum and bass at that time, very large interest in dubstep from people in the dnb scene.

Tho any excuse to use a bar graph is a good excuse

cool to see the perspective of one of the post 2000 DnB guys, as i have no reference point... after jungle faded into DnB i kinda gave up on it (around 99) and started listening to garage so by time grime and dubstep rolled along it made perfect sense

About when I started djing (99 or so). Dubstep rolled along for me right when drum and bass started to stagnate for me, though my interests paralleled the breakcore/gabber/hardstep type shit.

i think the more perspectives the merrier!

I left this thread earlier this evening as an interesting discussion about how grime and dubstep were influencing one another more than they had for a while...

wow, u just blew that out of proportion,,, i thought things were pretty civilized imho

you titled this thread "...save us from brostep" and you didn't expect there to be a debate on the subject of brostep itself? error in judgment i'd say

I probably shouldn't go on forums late at night. We can talk about grime later.

it's almost 4pm over here bro, looks like you're the one who needs some sleep. usually you're able to converse a lot better than this, so i'll come back after you've slept whatever this is off

On topic :
Terror Danjah is seriously doing big things, great to see him mentioned here (by far Hyperdub's best 2010 signing btw).

Semi On Topic :

Only breakcore can save us mate

not self important, just being an adult and realizing that screaming "YOUR MUSIC SUCKS MY TASTE IS BETTER" doesn't work.

instead saying 'check this out' likely is a better approach

I'm having a similar discussion on a local forum where people are shitting on dubstep in general.... saying "FUCK YOU YOUR MUSIC SUCKS" is just fanning the flames. Showing them what I view as good music has resulted in quite a few "oh I like this" responses.

Catch my drift?

Like the USA saying FUCK YOU IMMA BOMB YOU AND YOU WILL BE DEMOCRATIC, where as showing the economic, social, and humanitarian benefits to democracy may have been a better approach.
