word!

How about a new thread only with suggestions and a poll with those suggestions at the end of the day or so?
In my opinion adding names in the middle of the voting is useless considering that the first two choices have a clear advantage and i think we can get more creative names than those featured in the poll.

Hmm... can't think of much... but not feeling all of the ones mentioned thus far either... so here's my crappy 2 cents worth:

Dubstep Pro-Am Challenge Vol. 1

maybe it's true.. but what's stoping you from posting more creative names here???
if you look closely this is thread is only about the name! from the first page we debate only about the name of the comp.. that's why i didn't see any point in making new thread and abusing "sticky" top of the forum with this comp..
i started voting after 5 pages of debate about the names.. and now you say that it's not regular and that i should give you 1 day???

but if i see potential winner which didn't get enough votes cos it's added last - i will reset the poll.
ok?

Ok!

Some suggestions:

- Futurestep
- Dubstep (if there's a Grime, why not?

)
- Bass Space
- Skanking Dubstep

while deciding on a name, we should really keep in mind what's so unique about this compilation.
one unique selling-point certainly is: it will contain music by new and mostly unknown producers.
but another - equally important - aspect is, that it is a community effort of people from around the globe and it will be the first compilation that showcases dubstep producers from the UK AND various other countries. in that sense the compilation documents the growth of the dubstep scene from a london-/uk-thing to an international movement.
i believe this should be emphasized by the title...

here's my suggestion:

"(the) outernational dubstep files"

(a dubstepforum.com compilation mixed by n-type)

Post by **dubway** » Tue Mar 14, 2006 3:56 pm

good point..

but i'm not so delighted with the actual name tho..

danny bwoy · Post by **danny bwoy** » Tue Mar 14, 2006 4:03 pm

^^ you're right - it's not absolutely killing...

but maybe someone picks up on my point and comes up with a real cool name...

Post by **dubway** » Tue Mar 14, 2006 4:07 pm

true!

dice · Post by **dice** » Tue Mar 14, 2006 4:09 pm

whatever the outcome...it's the tunes that matter...maybe upon getting the final 25 mixed a decision can be made..

didn't mean to cause this much fuss

Post by **dubway** » Tue Mar 14, 2006 4:19 pm

30 tunes collected

only 6 missing... hurry please:

Codetripper-Holdback
Poltergeist-Night_Shift
Succulent_c-Shock Dem

What if maybe it has a supertitle/catchline of sorts and then the more descriptive/dry name - such as:

The New Face of Bass: Dubstep Forum Vol 1.
or
Dub Step Up: Forum Comp Vol 1.

also came up with:

Forum Clash Vol 1. (not really to imply too much of an aggresive nature, but more for the dub connotation)

Don't care about the name too much either, but I'm just throwing them out there maybe hoping they might spark some better thoughts from others.

Excuse a noob with his suggestions. I have a feeling I'll be one of the 10 cuts... but I'm already honored to have made the shortlist!

don't really like any of the names yet.
definately should have a series name, i.e.
"blah balh blah-dupstepforum comp. vol.1"
gotta know right off that it's our baby.
