Deffo.
I love a wobble but personally it need more than just a wobble!
I'd like to see what the next level b.line will be cos the wobble cant last forever. Although with ppl like Caspa, The Others, Rusko n Skream still killing it I may be eating my words in a year or so!

When it's done well, and there's enough else to hang it to, then fine.
Where there's nothing else and it's just loads of knob-twiddling, it's no better than a guitar solo and adds essentially fuck all to the tune.

the wobble is a nice touch.... but if ya producing every tune you make with a wobble bassline, then its gonna be rather boring aftera while

as long as its done by Benga, Skream, DMZ etc, the people who made that part of the Dubstep sound, its gonna sound good!

Skream's 0800 got no wobble. Personally its my favorite on Skreamism Vol 2.

Yes, aslong as its done well. As with everything, if its poor its poor.
And i also agree you must not rely too much on it, and not carry it out over loads of your tracks untill you become Mr wobble.

it really depends on how it's used. i hate at at 170+ bpm, but i dig it at 140/70. Some people use it as an accompaniment to the bassline, and some people take it balls to the wall the whole way thru.
It really really really depends on personal preference and if it sounds good.

Not sure DMZ have used the wobble that much, esp Mala. As long as it's done well then doesn;t matter who does it.
Viva diversity!

I love the wobble. May the wobble live forever.
I do love a good bit of LFO nuttiness.
